Where we meme (joking in tone and detail, serious in sentiment) about General Sherman, the Civil War, and how the secesh traitors had it coming.

RULES

  1. No bigotry. The Union, or at least the part of the Union WE support, fought AGAINST that shite. We are anti-racist, anti-sexist, anti-homophobic, anti-transphobic, and in general anti-bigot here, even if not all the lads in Union blue uniforms were.

  2. No Confederate sympathizing. Anti-democratic racist slaver traitors don't deserve shit.

  3. Follow all Lemmy.world rules

Someone should drive a Sherman tank through it, drunk, dressed up as Ulysses s grant

Someone should set the field on fire.

There any kind of context to this? Not to discredit how openly gross this is to do in the modern era in the slightest, I'm just wondering why the fuck they're doing it. WTF??

Don’t forget their sisters, which was actually founded before the SCV

They contacted our company to do some work for them, so we happily took their money and sent our 2 black guys and our hispanic guy to do the job…

They never called us back, we’re ok with that.

The guys thought it was hilarious, to quote one of them “So many pearls were clutched you’d have thought we were in an oyster field.”

Imagine being able to protest something by simply carrying an American Flag.... they would absolutely lose their shit. Maybe dress it up with some blues, a drummer and fife and march right through that fuckshow

Needs equal representation of some Yankee wives opposite them, celebrating.

The appropriate way to dispose of a Confederate soldier is a giant unmarked pit. Bonus points if it used to be a sewer.

I like the LARPing costumes.

I don't get it, what is that dress supposed to be? Just looks like some Victorian era costume to me.

Antebellum era mourning clothes. They're mourning the dead Confederates who so valiantly gave their lives for the cause of racism and slavery.
