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

Well, a big problem in the modern US, and one of the reasons Shermanposting exists, is because a lot of Americans with... unpleasant views... try to push the narrative that the South "wasn't that bad" or was "just fighting for States' rights" or "1 DIXIE BOY = 100 YANKEES" or "Slaves actually benefited from slavery".

The downvoters probably assumed you were one of them playing innocent instead of a genuine newcomer to the topic.
