General Sherman's legacy is bringing out the deeply repressed genocidal urges in liberals and leftoids. It's a beautiful thing.

He really just can't help himself can he? We're what one day out from him complaining about people thinking he wants to genocide all his political opponents

Class reductionists rly are a meme

"there's no war but the class war"

"oh okay, then will you be willing to compromise or concede on distraction issues related to gender or identity?

Unironically correct, reconstruction ended too early because of various factors and it ending too soon was what caused the 20th century racist democrats to become dominant.

If I was Sherman I would have razed every town in the US south and used the men's ashes as fertilizer while taking the women for breeding stock and knitting fancy blankets. The land would have been apportioned between injuns blacks and quakers and Jefferson Davis would have been crucified on the White House lawn

This is basically the party line on Hacker News rn too.

Yes, specifically the Democratic Party.

When we look at the history of Nazi Germany, do we blame the individual German people, or do we blame Hitler and his party?

frick I hate this argument so much. they're both to blame, hitler ended democracy in germany to thunderous applause, the german people in general were absolutely on his side and I'm tired of this r-slurred whitewashing of history trying to argue otherwise.

they only got upset with him after war shortages started to bite, they didn't give a shit about the whole "kill the jews" thing bc they were a small minority in germany

then the allies start rolling through germany near the end of the war and finding death camps and the people living in towns nearby are like "oh I had no idea" it's like you can SMELL the burning flesh you fricking liars

never trust germs

The duty we owe to history is to rewrite it.
