Sorry, but there's nobody "woke" here, that's just your own fantasy.
And nobody here "hates the South", that's just more fantasy.
The truth is we'd all be one big happy family if y'all would just stop posting lies about the Civil War.
As for ditto, seems to be gone.
But rockrr & Bull Snipe are still around, doubtless plenty disgusted with the same endless nonsense from Lost Cause defenders -- and yes, y'all do always start it.
For example, on this thread there were two posts from enumerated (#27 & 36) plus four from FLT-bird (#40, 41, 42 & 46) before the first response from DoodleDawg (#48) and TwelveOfTwenty (#54), both to FLT-bird.
DoodleDawg's response was jumped on by FLT-bird (#48) & central_va (#192) with gross insulting words.
TwelveOfTwenty's post #54 was jumped on by both FLT-bird (#90) and DiogenesLamp (#133), both posting one of the Lost Causes Biggest Lies -- that Corwin!, Corwin!, Corwin! means Civil War was not about slavery, slavery slavery.
And yet it still was, no matter how much y'all lie about it.
You’re woke as F
Fighting phantoms simply to stroke your virtue signal glans
While we lose everything as a nation and civilization from the Continent to here to Perth
And you assist
The line from demonizing Dixie to dismantling western civilization at the behest of the woke over white race bad is direct and brief...
So where do you “teach” as your sycophant asserts...
Howard Zinns garage doesn’t count .
That's the frustrating thing in all of this. No one in the South today thinks that slavery was right. If they lived in the confederacy they would have been assaulted or lynched for opposing slavery.
The only thing modern Southerners have in common with the confederacy is that they were born into the land the confederacy once dirtied. That no more ties them to the confederacy than it ties modern Germans and Japanese to the evil regimes in their nations' past.
The only thing that ties Southerners to the confederacy is for those who choose to associate with it.
If they want to pretend they would have been welcome in the confederacy and it wasn't about slavery, let them.
But to those of you who choose this delusion, don't expect the rest of us to go along with it.
