> Winning doesn't mean ur right tho
@Mcgoober might makes right baby! Winner writes history
Which is why saying "read the history books xd" doesn't really have much sway for me
Confederacy isn’t a thing anymore my guy
Idc

@Mcgoober history is history
Even if it's written from a blatantly biased government?
I love the south, it’s where conservatives are nowadays. But back in that day idiots resided there
All history is though
bruh the confederacy fought for slaves. There is no denying that
Yeah there is
might does NOT make right. it does however win the fight.

@SamTheG exactly
I'm doing it rn tho
i like that someone whose username is literally corn pop is declaring to me their personal opinion as fact
Corn pop was a bad dude
1812 is a good counter example to 1778
No I'm not all that shit is water under the bridge lol
Well I agree of course it is... dont change history though just due to your liking of the south
Says the man with a Confederate flag and soldier in his pfp
I just don't much like people demonizing an entire country that hundreds of thousands died to protect because looking at it through a modern lense makes it look bad
Entire country??? You mean the confederacy....
... they literally fought for slaves.
Uh wot?
@Mcgoober I think you’re getting crap mixed up and making assumptions about my views
Yeah they did and that was totally a part of it but it woulda been worked out even if the south had won
Hes referring to all the people who demonize the US and burn the flag in the streets even after all the people who died protecting the freedom those same people enjoy, I think that's what he meant
No im not lol I'm talking about ripping down rebel statues and shit
No, I think he means the people who died for the confederate army
> Yeah they did and that was totally a part of it but it woulda been worked out even if the south had won
@Mcgoober woulda worked out? Well due to what they fought for I have a doubt about that
Oh well yeah that's part of American history
Even Robert E Lee was against slavery
I’m not arguing that all confederates are evil, but the group as a whole fought for negative goals
> Oh well yeah that's part of American history
@Tex no it’s not... that’s a part of the confederacy’s history which doesn’t even exist anymore. Those states left the union. America fought against that
The vast majority of the rebel army didnt even have any connections to slavery
People forget that slavery was a strategic tool used by the north to damage the already minimal production capabilities the south had
There were literally rebel marching songs shit talking slave owners for being fat and lazy<:KEK:726877368601411624>
yeah the states that seceded and then rejoined the US just happened to be the same as those currently and previously involved in the war
I mean I can understand the view point of there being a nobility to the "soldier" of time period, doing one's "duty" sure. But I think there's conflation of the entire movement being noble or whatever
huge leap of logic for you, i know
