I hate this comeback. It’s so easily countered.
You ask what, I tell you
Ok. Tell me.
Quite rough. Our civil war losers are treated much better.
…they weren’t pro slavery though
I thought this kind of childish nonsense was done mostly by conservatives. So stupid.
edit: for the many of you that didn’t understand, this is not a comment defending the confederacy. Jesus Christ. The point is we all thought “let’s go Brandon” made the republicans look childish and pathetic. Well congratulations, you managed to match them.
Bro’s mad because his grandpappy is buried there 💀
You know what’s real childish? Being traitors to your own country
Should have driven them into the sea
Bingo.
Childish and cringe is exactly what this is and does nothing for anyone.
Well once person out of about 100 that understands this is not about defending slavery. Jesus Christ I thought the level on Lemmy was supposed to be a bit better than Reddit but it’s the same ridiculous circle jerk.
Double standards are lost on some folks.
tbf, fuck confederates but…they are still dead people.
treat everyone with the same respect you want to be treated with
Laugh at my grave. See how much I give a shit lololol
They didn’t treat black people with respect so
Slavers aren’t people.
They literally had official government statements that black people were inferior by divine law. The image from op is one hundred times more respectful of others than the Confederates were.
When you view your life as inherently more than another, it ironically puts you below the bar a bit.
Got it. Treat Pol Pot with respect. Noted.
Let’s get offended by everything
I’d want people to hate me if I fought to preserve slavery
Nope. Pee on Confederate graves… The few that they’ve managed to bury properly. They died doing a shitty thing for a shitty reason, and we’ve had to deal with the aftermath since the election of 1876 was brokered to end Reconstruction.
They fucked everything up. So, yeah, no respect. Pee on them.
Respect is earned not given out to people who want a human slave
There also still Americans, which is what makes civil wars more complicated.
No, they quite literally left the Union, which makes them not Americans. They viewed black people as property and were willing to go to war to maintain that status quo. Personally, I wouldn’t piss on them if they were on fire.
Hey, that’s how you start wildfires, piss on them to save the trees out just rock wall them to make a safe fire pit.
Let them burn themselves out, then piss on them.
The union said they weren’t allowed to leave and won, so technically they didn’t leave. That’s what makes civil wars difficult, you have to find a way to live with the losing side after.
The law says you’re not allowed to murder. So if you kill someone and are arrested for murder, did you technically not murder anyone?
That’s what makes it difficult after murder… Or something
Wrong. We should have eradicated them when we had the best chance. Imagine a world where we got rid of all those people. 🥰
In fact their whole schtick was that they WEREN’T American.
