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 Piefed.social rules

They didnt take a cultural artifact. They took a flag that their enemy was waving at them in the heat of battle. It was a weapon of war used against them.

It only became a cultural artifact because they put it on display after the fact and made it one for Minnesota. Why would Virgina have a right to Minnesota's culture?
