You people would have been better off under the brits. They give losers way more free stuff.

A majority of the British Empire, a vast majority (like everyone in Britain at the time) considered the US colonies traitorous.
That would be a huge difference from the American Civil war. If you also remember, many confederate troops AFTER the Civil War received pensions and such all the same as the union troops. Did the Union go rounding up the confederate troops after the Civil War ended and put them in prison? Even Lincoln didn't treat them as traitors after the war.


You also seem to believe that only you get decide what a traitor is (by what authority) like its a black and white determination based only on your personal values that you decide are the right values 160 years after the fact.

Imposing your 21st century narcissistic sense of moral superiority on historic events is probably the worst way to give those historic events a fair look to learn/understand why things happened the way they did.
