He killed Indians, therefore he’s racist and committed genocide.

Welcome to the Cultural Revolution, everything is going to come crashing down.

He killed Indians,

Yeah, but they killed him ...

[John S Mosby]

True— and the Indians wiped out his command out of his totally foolish operational command in ... “Indian country”.

He wanted to be President, imagine— just like the idiot Biden. His body was scalped and mutilated, and the Lakota women punctured his ears into his brain “so he would listen and hear better when the Great Spirit speaks of his harming of the Lakota”. Good movie on this “Son of the Morning Star”. Also great is the pure science analysis of the movements of the command, using shell casings still on the battlefield and GPS locators. Fascinating- they violated all kinds of trained tactics, and were slaughtered (and killed themselves as well, apparently).

So, there’s that. Southerners know Custer for trying to get General Longstreet to surrender the remnants of the Army of N. Virginia to Custer (a Colonel) in the last days before the Appomattox surrender. Custer rode on to confront Longstreet and demanded surrender from him. Longstreet stood in his saddle, (said to have sworn at Custer, saying “The Generals will meet and arrange the terms,not a BOY like you of junior rank!)with a raised voice at Custer and then literally chased him off.

Custer had it coming and a great Native cavalry delivered it. He would have been a terrible President.

I knew this would happen. Just sooner than expected.
Demands to renumber and name units of the First Cav and rename the division are sure to follow. Hard to find any major US Army officer in the 19th century, other than Grant, who wasn't in at least one Indian War. Sherman was not in an Indian campaign as a company grade officer but was the overall commander for the major operations against the Plains Indians. So all their statues have to go and the history books have to be rewritten. This poison is spreading fast. Time to start defending historical figures and historical memory period and stop sniping about how Lee was a traitor and how many slaves who owned when. The common fabric of American history is being shredded as we watch.

And we need to remove every stone-faced politician from office too.

Will the immaculate progressive please throw the first stone.
