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

That's pretty cool. Kinda reads like narcolepsy though. I wonder.

It's a skill soldiers commonly learn. Grant (and Sherman) were very much soldiers' soldiers, close to the troops and the conditions the troops lived in. Any number of accounts of veterans, modern or historical, will tell you that a soldier learns to sleep whenever and wherever they can steal some shut-eye!
