It's like they're mumbling through a mouthful of barbecue, totally oblivious to the fact that consonants and vowels are supposed to sound different. I'm pretty sure they all just pretend to understand each other, and half the time I think they're just yawning.

Speaking of business and the South, didn't some auto manufacturers pull out of factory deals there because the workers couldn't understand the pictures and instructions for auto assembly. They brought down information from Canada to train the workers and they were so illiterate that they went to pictures and diagrams, and they STILL couldn't get it. Just lol.

To tell you the truth I didn't spend that money to hurt them, I spent it so no one would ever post a pro sherman thread again. The same white guilt which kept them from admitting the mans actions will keep them from praising him. And every step of the way Jastiger pisses on his heroes memory with the truth. It's beautiful. Buy me a Sherman av, thx

Dr. Gene Dango MD posted:People who slaughter large numbers of innocent people are evil in my opinion. sherman did exactly that to the native americans. That's bad. Sherman was one of the first modern generals who enacted truly industrial warfare - which includes strategically oriented actions against the enemy manufacturing and supply base - in short, against the civilian population. His only purpose was to wage this kind of warfare as efficiently as possible on behalf of his employers, believing the duty of the commander was to end a war swiftly and decisively, since the short period of brutality this represented was preferable to a prolonged, but less intense suffering (it's better to rip off a band aid than to peel it off slowly). Unfortunately for him, Sherman did not see that his graduation into the realm of industrial warfare made him into a political figure with far reaching influence, and rejected any notion of considering politics or ethics when carrying out a mission - defeating the south or subjugating the Natives, Sherman saw it only as a job given to him by politicians to be carried out with greatest possible expediency. He was like WWI generals who took it as their natural duty to create as efficient a killing machine out of their country as possible without really being invested in the politics that called for the killings in the first place. He was one of the early modern generals who were led towards a mercilessly scientific and utilitarian concept of war at a point when this science was just a theory with no empirical evidence of its practical effects. steinrokkan fucked around with this message at 17:40 on Mar 7, 2016 |

The funny thing about the South seceding other than the fact that they got curb stomped by the North is that it gave the North an easier time passing legislation too because there were less Southern senators to cock block stuff while the war was going on Doubly owned imo

Yesterday I said I would make another educational post for you, today. there isn't one. On my way to make the post i was heartlessly attacked by northern carpet baggers in a sickening industrial assault without mercy. I'm afraid to say the bastards reamed me out and crippled all my limbs. they even blamed me, the victim. What's my name? its Georgia

Is that all you got, naming me as a confederate apologist despite the fact that I've said nothing in favor of the confederacy in this thread or the last? Despite the fact that I think the white man is the worst race on the planet? This is not a console war Jastiger, me saying the union is responsible for atrocities does not mean I support the south. I would prefer if you argued in defense of your hero and his enormous crimes against humanity but you cant so you sling poo poo. And yes, burning someones city down constitutes an act of extreme violence. That's what I mean when I say he was fighting women and children, he was burning their homes and stealing everything they had. Do you have anything to say in favor of the Native American genocide? I bet you do. Dr. Gene Dango MD fucked around with this message at 21:02 on Mar 7, 2016 |

If Sherman stole everything they had, where did he put it. Did each soldier appropriate their homes? Somehow I don't think so. It's just so silly how many hoops you're willing to go through to demonize Sherman.

Also yes, adult women and old people who defended the ownership of other human beings are atrocious. I'll give you points for the kiddos because they are largely innocent.
