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

Are they trying to say this is a good thing or a bad thing?

With 4chan, it's hard to tell sometimes. Sometimes it's some fascist bitching, other times, it's a sane user (relatively speaking) needling fascists. I'm assuming this one means everything as a good thing, and is fishing for big mad chud reactions.

Mostly, it's just Schroedinger's assholes.

If people like it, they were serious - if not, it was just a joke, bro.

Any trolling, sufficiently advanced, is indistinguishable from sincerity.

It's a red board so they're saying it's a bad thing.

What's a red board? I keep my exposure to 4chan limited to what I see on Lemmy.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

4chan is divided into boards (kinda like communities) with red background color, which are not safe for work, and blue boards, which are technically safe for work (if your employer doesn't have an issue with liberal usage of the n-word).

The video game board is blue, so this is likely the red "politically incorrect" board, which is a Nazi watering hole.

Lol so not very SFW

But OP is Canadian, and therefore only disagrees with black people actually living in his neighborhood.

Lol, how dare Rockstar make the game historically accurate. The devils...

One of my favorite moments of this game was when I stumbled across a KKK meeting in the woods. Rather than just go in guns blazing, I decided to stay hidden and listen in. They proceeded to perform some kind of ritual involving candles, and proceeded to light themselves on fire and all burn to death.

Probably r slur

Funnily enough, I now see why I loved the game so much and why some people didn't like it. Yikes.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

I don't really like the gameplay because it's so slooooww

New game idea: a Wolfenstein-like story where you exterminate unapologetically obvious enemies like ~nazis~ racists, and not necessarily limited to slave owners, but set in or around the Civil War.
