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

Yeeeeessss but, they are beautiful buildings with a horrible past. They should be turned into museums, educational pieces, similar to Auschwitz.

Also a good option, but I feel there's enough for at least a few burnings, as a treat.

I don't believe the destruction of anyones' hard labor is a good thing. The ones that cannot be turned to education of museum or school sort should definitely be turned over to communities to create centers of something positive instead.

Both options are better than private event spaces, which a lot of them are

You can burn a few confederate landmarks. For a treat lol

Leave a few as museum, burn the rest. or better yet. give them to the descendants of the slaves who worked there. they should be the ones who burn it or do whatever the fuck they want to them.

No only burn

A thanksgiving/christmas fireplace stream I would actually watch all the way through.
