You reb fans are always talking about black confederates but I never hear you say anything about the far more numerous Southern Union soldiers who were men who had to overcame obstacles even to enlist and who often left family behind at the mercy of thuggish local Confederate authorities.
The significant numbers of Southern Unionists strike hard at the myth of a separate "Southern nation".

I never hear you say anything about the far more numerous Southern Union soldiers You're not listening, carpetbagger. We talk about 'em. They're called 'traitors'.
Then after The War, they were called 'scalawags'.
But, as you know, the majority of the so called 'Southern Union soldiers' were from the border states that never seceded, or, as in the case of West Virginia, seceded twice.

myth of a separate "Southern nation". What planet are you from? Are you so brainwashed that you can't admit that there was a Confederate States of America?
Or are you just stuck on stupid.
