A true american hero!

2021-01-22 14:55:10 UTC

So I was debating this person about the history of the democrats and he claims and believes that the republicans now are the democrats during and after the civil war. I know this is not true but is there anything that explains it?

2021-01-22 14:56:16 UTC

Youโ€™re wrong!

Last soviet convoy leaving afghanistan. They were still attacked even though they were leaving.

2021-01-23 17:05:04 UTC

they were attacked by the Afghanistan rebels?

2021-01-23 20:18:43 UTC

They were attacked because of PR, mostly.

2021-01-23 20:19:44 UTC

That way the rebels could claim that they gloriously routed the soviet forces instead of having it look to their supporters like the drawdown it was.

2021-01-25 03:01:39 UTC

We don't talk about that...

2021-01-25 03:53:42 UTC

Fun fact: Most "cowboys" in the early days were Black/Mexican.

2021-01-25 05:04:44 UTC

Yeah, France under the Monarchy was pretty dystopian, but at least they were strong. Once they adopted socialism in the interwar years? Yeah that ended.

2021-01-25 05:05:45 UTC

Franco-Prussian war?

2021-01-25 05:07:11 UTC

Is that the Franco-prussian war? I figured he just grabbed a random thumbnail.

2021-01-25 05:08:14 UTC

The image looks like itโ€™s from the civil war, but the Franco Prussian war I believe was what heโ€™s talking about with France losing to the Prussians within a year

2021-01-25 05:09:28 UTC

Still: I gotta say France was better defended under the Monarchy. Less rats, more patriots.

2021-01-25 08:15:33 UTC

@ThiccSpicyGenderRevealParty Those are French soldiers

And the most cause of cowboy deaths were by Native Americans AND other black cow lies when their cattle marches merged and they fought over who had what cow

2021-01-26 06:41:37 UTC

I donโ€™t remember if I already said this but fun fact: During the Invasion of Poland, no, the polish did not go charging German tanks, but instead engaged them at distance with Antitank rifles

2021-01-26 06:42:57 UTC

The misconception that the polish charger German tanks comes from an engagement where after routing a German camp, several polish Calvary-men were gunned down by machine guns mounted in a half track

2021-01-26 06:45:01 UTC

Then, while Italian Reporters were at the scene, they saw the dead Calvarymen, and a couple of tanks that happened to be there, and went with the conclusion that the poles were desperate to the point that they tried charging tanks on horseback, and the misconception stuck for the rest of the war and onwards

2021-01-26 13:45:20 UTC

yee haw muchachos

2021-01-26 15:12:42 UTC

Yeah, but leadership positions were still limited to whites.

2021-01-26 17:16:42 UTC

hey in this server do we talk about WWII history only or like the history of humanity as a whole? indus, anubis, abraham....

2021-01-26 17:18:41 UTC

literaly anything related to history

2021-01-26 17:44:01 UTC

cool

2021-01-26 18:22:30 UTC

the polish military actually did use cavalry, but not in battle, rather they used it to get their troops around quickly. Also, mire polish badassery, during the opening days of the war in Danzig, a couple of poles in the post office held out against nazi infantry, artillery, and armoured vechiles. These postmen were so vigilent that the nazi's had to blow up the entire building because they simply could not take it.

2021-01-26 23:46:21 UTC

Can someone explain to me why the Confederate flag is problematic? And can another person also explain why itโ€™s not problematic?

2021-01-27 00:02:38 UTC

How itโ€™s not problematic. It was a flag that was going to be used by the Confederacy when they tried to rebel from the Union because the northern states wanted to end slavery.
How it is problematic: the southern states where Democrats who wanted to keep their slaves. Any person who knows this knows that the same party thatโ€™s wanting it removed, was the same party that wanted to keep their slaves. Thus, said party called it โ€œracistsโ€ because โ€œwhite supremacists want to use it to justify slave ownershipโ€

2021-01-27 00:07:52 UTC

Here's the thing, the civil war didn't become a war about slavery until the Emancipation Proclamation happened, which allowed the Union to guilt trip European Nations into supporting them on account of them having already banned slavery

2021-01-27 00:09:09 UTC

Thatโ€™s also true.

2021-01-27 00:11:42 UTC

Personally, I donโ€™t really like it, but Iโ€™m not going to wet myself over it.

2021-01-27 01:18:47 UTC

The European Nations had a role in the Civil War?๐Ÿ™€

2021-01-27 01:23:54 UTC

Sort of, not really

2021-01-27 01:33:31 UTC

The south tried to get European support due to them selling cotton to the British

2021-01-27 01:35:25 UTC

But the British said no because 1. They could just get cotton from Egypt, 2, the south didnโ€™t really have anything to offer them with the delegates being unprepared to actually negotiate, and 3. The north made it a conflict of slavery meaning that the British had to support the north considering they already outlawed slavery

2021-01-27 02:48:43 UTC

Not to say that there weren't plenty of abolitionists in the North, and a great lack of them in the South. But politicians are politicians. Even the Founding Fathers didn't make slavery illegal, when they knew it was wrong. They wanted the support of the Southern States in the revolution (who wouldn't) and that meant getting in bed with the devil.

2021-01-27 02:50:49 UTC

So of course Northern members of congress were hesitant to even approach the topic. They weren't so very different from today's politicians in that avoiding controversy altogether is the easier way of running a campaign.

2021-01-27 04:06:46 UTC

well, early on in the Civil War, the Brits and the French had traded with the South for Cotton, however that quickly came to an end when the North utalized the Anaconda plan, which cut off the Confederates to Europe, which also as a side effect caused both france and Britian to enter a Cotton Famine and both nations gave the Confederacy a chance to either win a significant battle or punch through the Union Blockaid and they would send in their support

2021-01-27 04:07:40 UTC

and since the South failed to do either, both Britain and France withdrew any support and delved into interests elsewhere

2021-01-27 04:09:12 UTC

the issue of Slavery wasnt one that played a huge role in either nations support of the South, since both nations well practiced it in their territories outside of their nations borders, with Britian having used it well up till the early 20th century

2021-01-27 04:11:06 UTC

what is interesting tho is that, while Canada was still a territory of Britian at the time and had to follow lock and step with their mother nation, they had pledged support to the North, going against their mother nation

2021-01-27 04:15:02 UTC

frankly the issue of Slavery in the Civil War wouldnt pop up till after the battle of Gettysburge, in which the Address givin by Lincoln would state that only the rebelling Southern states slaves were to be declared free. However this was ultimately all for show as he had no power in deciding what the Confederacy did and explicity made it where it didnt ban slavery in the North, as there were still several very key Northern states that used slavery. the 2 most notable being both Maryland and Delaware. Going against their wishes was in essence a literal suicide move as it would give the Confederacy enough land and men where they could mount an actual offensive against the White House and win the war

2021-01-27 04:15:44 UTC

politicians then were very much no different than they are today

2021-01-27 04:18:39 UTC

and the only reason why Lincoln gave the Gettysburg Address was because he was frankly losing the war not just on the frontlines, but inside the very homeland as citizens of several states were growing tired of sending their husbands and sons off to war just to die, even going so far as Draft Riots breaking out in New York City

2021-01-27 04:42:15 UTC

Not "The only reason". By the time of the Gettysburg address, Lincoln was a staunch abolitionist. He had a personal interest in seeing the slaves freed.

2021-01-27 04:44:32 UTC

He was not losing the war, but people were growing tired of it. The political willpower was there to win in the White House. Grant may have been a butcher, but he understood the numbers game. 5,000 Union troops were replaceable. 500 Confederate soldiers? Not nearly so much.

2021-01-27 04:48:44 UTC

Add to this that the South was short on everything needed to win. Ammo, guns, food, clothes, horses, cannon, powder....Yeah. There was no way the South was winning that fight if there was the willpower on the part of the Northerners. Had we had the balls to use the same tactics we used on the South, we would have won in Vietnam, Korea would still be unified, and Afghanistan would have never been a problem.

2021-01-27 04:56:50 UTC

That being said, there is no doubt that it was one of the most tragic events in our nation's history. The fact that Americans would take to the field against one another is one of those things that makes me wish to punch a wall. A kid from Texas is no less human than a kid from Minnesota. The fact that we spent nearly five years slaughtering each other pisses me off.

2021-01-27 05:07:59 UTC

Well...are ya ready for round two....?

2021-01-27 05:08:39 UTC

Do we count people who don't believe in the Constitution as Americans?

2021-01-27 05:11:57 UTC

I mean.. โ€œlawfullyโ€ they are. But hey soon everyone will be an American...sooo...yes...yes

2021-01-27 05:16:52 UTC

I think it makes more sense to judge people by their practices than their words. They don't like our nation. They're actively seeking to destroy it. They say the people who founded it were evil. They enact segregationist policies. They view their fellow citizens as enemies in every sense of the word. As far as they're concerned, the Bill of Rights needs to be torched so that they can enact their grand cultural revolution. Which, in everything but name, is a witch-hunt for heretics and blasphemers against that which they hold sacred.

I don't believe they're Americans. It's not a civil war. It's...what is it exactly?....

2021-01-27 05:17:35 UTC

Fascism/ communism

2021-01-27 05:17:42 UTC

And not the good kind.

2021-01-27 05:17:46 UTC

Ahhh. Radical fundementalist terrorism.

2021-01-27 05:18:50 UTC

That too. Communism in name, fascism in practice.

2021-01-27 05:20:28 UTC

They are literally the Naziโ€™s they claim all republicans are.

2021-01-27 05:21:50 UTC

I know. When a corporation does something they don't like, they say corporations are evil, that private property is a sham. When corporations do something they like? "But Muh Private Property."

2021-01-27 05:23:20 UTC

We probably wonโ€™t have it. My dad has been preaching, and heโ€™s talked about things thatโ€™s going to happen in the Biden/Harris administration that has happened, but not mentioned

2021-01-27 05:24:19 UTC

Probably won't happen.

2021-01-27 05:25:06 UTC

He nailed them barricading themselves in at the White House with national guard and a wall since December

2021-01-27 05:32:08 UTC

I just noticed something.

There *are* four factions. Which I knew, even if I forgot it since November. But it's crystallizing now. But I was always mislabeling them.

I said something like "Among the politically aware, there are four groups. The Establishment Democrats, the Populist Democrats, the Patriots, and those who simply wish to be left alone."

But what does the populist Left stand for? Communism. They hate the Establishment Left as much as we do. Maybe even more so. The were the Bernie Bros.

What are the Establishment democrats? Well, they're the Fascists. They're all about big corporate power as long as it acts within the interests and the confines of the State.

Then there are the Patriots and the right-wing anarchist groups. We know who they are.

2021-01-27 05:33:50 UTC

We know the Establishment is going after Antifa. And we know Antifa is rioting in protest of the establishment. We're watching the tankies and the Fascists have it out.

2021-01-27 05:34:25 UTC

So the populist left is basically the left wing version of us?

2021-01-27 05:35:13 UTC

Yes but no?

2021-01-27 05:36:07 UTC

I mean they kinda are, we both oppose the establishment because they cheated us in some way

2021-01-27 05:36:45 UTC

Difference is in details

2021-01-27 05:37:37 UTC

No because of the baseline philosophical divide.
Because we're more devoted to creation and preservation.
I don't think the tankies want to create or preserve anything. They say they love the poor, but I think the reality is that they simply hate the rich. And if they have burn the whole world just to spite the rich, they totally would.

2021-01-27 05:38:22 UTC

You're right in the strictly political sense, though, Thicc.

2021-01-27 05:40:07 UTC

Speaking of the establishment factions, arenโ€™t they mostly congressmen, or and their supporters(major corporations)?

2021-01-27 05:40:38 UTC

And I guess the Establishment Right would be the Aristocracy. Bush, Cheney, the like.
