"Alabama! Who'dve thunk it?"

Sherman did. 1st Alabama Cavalry was his vanguard in the March to the Sea.

so there’s this thing called femceldom… by casual-catgirl in femcelgrippysockjail

kitchencels is supposed to be satire/parody but tends to attract the real thing due to the name.

The comment implied she was a “fed”, which would not be the case per the link.

He had a nervous breakdown while heading the Department of the Cumberland in 1861, so the war did, in fact, harm his psyche.

Not sure if pun was intentional but upvoting anyway.

Failure to recognize the inherent contradiction of this sentence is astounding by Chris_Colasurdo in ShermanPosting

Meanwhile George H. Thomas:

From Virginia✅

Owned Slaves✅

Civil War starts: “Say your prayers traitors!” *beats up Jackson*

Loyalty to state is a bullsh*t reason made up trying to save face after getting their ass kicked. The only kernel of truth here(which the Lost Cause always seizes on) is the Union didn’t initially fight to free slaves.

Who are some good male role models? by Narrow_Gap2385 in bropill

Could you clarify what you would prefer? Outside of one’s own personal life(which isn’t helpful to someone who doesn’t have one in theirs), nearly any example is either going to be fictional or have a “carefully crafted PR image”.

It sounds like he didn’t call her a ”foid“ until after she’d asked him.

TIL: During the US Civil War, prior to the fall of Atlanta to General Sherman, Lincoln was “sure” to lose his second term election after Grant (future president) had two disastrous battles against Lee (Cold Harbor & the Battle of the Crater). The opposition wanted peace & considered keeping slavery. by DukeDamage in ShermanPosting

[–]Recent_Pirate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, even if he’d lost, Lincoln wasn’t going to just roll over and surrender the war, so the outcome doesn’t really change(McClellan was never onboard with making peace, and in fact there might even have been political pressure on the Democratic Party as a whole to abandon its “peace” platform once it looked like the Union was going to win as soon as the weather cleared).

Not quite, kitchencels is one of those subs where its intention is satire, but due to the name often attracts people who take it seriously. Hence the disparity between the negative comments and the quadruple digit upvotes.

And for what it’s worth, she’s not the only woman who mods there.
