title edited to remove any insinuation that Sherman committed war crimes during the civil war
I get the feeling that it stems in part from a place of trying to own the reactionaries
It’s this, but there also a shit ton of Cope from American leftists trying to find nuggets of good in the country’s history. Nooooo, we were actually good all along except for the feckless or selfish or cruel elite who just unfairly manouvered into positions of power!
Edit
On the contrary, the prejudice of race appears to be stronger in the States which have abolished slavery, than in those where it still exists; and nowhere is it so intolerant as In those States where servitude has never been known
THIS. I am sick of how Sherman has just become a means for nationalists with better optics to joke about how they need an outlet for their fascistic beliefs without getting called out
