Killing slave owners and anyone that stood for it is good actually

post
why the hell would you use that image to try to argue 'actually the union was bad' when it is literally the caning of Charles Sumner - an abolitionist - on the floor of the senate lol. Dude who did it was literally fined and got re-elected later that same year despite beating a senator nearly to death with a cane in front of the entire chamber - who unsurprisingly wrung their hands the entire time and barely intervened.

The guy who caned Sumner also sold like commemorative novelty canes to his fans in the south. The USA is an ontological evil and it's always been the same.

Lester Maddox ax handles
Lester Maddox was a Georgian who owned a restraunt in Atlanta known as the Pickrick. As a staunch segregationist he was against the 1954 Brown V. Board of Education, and the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Maddox actually filed a lawsuit to conintue his segregationist policies.
In April of 1964, some african american student demonstrators attempted to stage a sit-in, however before they could arrive Maddox confronted the group with a bare axe handle. Maddox along with some employees and customers pulled the handles from the nail kegs on each side of the resturant fireplace. These handles came to be known as the Pickrick Drumsticks. Due to this response Maddox was heralded as a political figure defending "private property rights" and segregation.
Maddox closed the restaurant rather than serve african american customers. When he attempted to re-open the restaurant and tried to only serve "acceptable" customers he was taken to court and was held in contmept. Maddox used his actions as a launchboard for his political ambitions and became the 75th Governor of Georgia from 1967-71.
Downthread a bit the same user says the North shot first. Total disregard for basic historical facts.
"celtic character of the south" lowell chevalier sounds very welsh indeed 
Every single southern slave owner should have been put to death
Not only did they enslave millions of people, they started a brutal war to preserve that enslavement, that's genuine radical evil, and it should have been dealt with thru extreme prejudice
And since it wasn't dealt with, the US is now crawling with fascists
Every confederate flag today is a testament to that failure to eradicate the source of the evil
By firing squad
Everything is genocide now.
Anything that upsets me is genocide. Foreign country makes decision that I don't like... genocide. McDonalds employee fucked up my order...genocide. Stubbed my toe on the coffee table...genocide. Having an uncomfortable thought...you wouldn't believe it, but also genocide.
Leaves me wondering, how do they rhetorically escalate from here when the need to actually convey a sense of moral depravity and social harm? Seems the ceiling has been reached.
The north literally allowed the south to regain its power and keep its leaders. It was the proto-west Germany. If the north was as savage as the south fantasizes, it would’ve killed every general and politician, put John Brown on Mount Rushmore, and arrested every confederate soldier and forced them into servitude for freed slaves as per the 13th amendment.
Ain't the dude doing the beating in this image the southerner?
After he was directly criticized for his love of slavery in spite of it's increasing worldwide recognition as a moral evil.
The Civil War was literally
just an excusea good reason for the north to genocide southerners.
There I fixed it for you.
it's also 
They make it sound more based than it was, although there were some pretty awesome moments. It's too bad every last slaver wasn't executed and their property redistributed to the freed slaves and landless whites. If only John Brown was president during reconstruction, that's basically the only way we would have gotten the good ending
I've always said it reconstruction could have been done easily and without losing northern support through war weariness if they had just recruited the freed slaves as the soldiers enacting martial law against former confederates. For one thing the freed slaves almost certainly would already know all the confederate sympathisers names and addresses
Genocidong the south is good, actually.
