Fire Memes for Traitor Haters

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

Who made a community called "shermanposting"? Why does it feel like entire communities are made to support a single post sometimes?

Me. I made it (originally on Kbin) as a transplant from Reddit, where it was a bastion of pro-Union sentiment. Same idea here. o7

More precisely, it's a repository for Civil War memes (and general non-entirely-serious Civil Warposting) that don't glorify traitors and slavers, Sherman is a symbol of crushing secesh slavers, not the only permitted topic.
