The brainwashing in the South will always be among the best.
Considering 9/10 people say the war was fought over slavery, I'd say the North did the brainwashing.
The irony is the North and the Yankee culture were well ahead in the propaganda space.

And that's what you think the CSA would've given us?
A CSA devoid of Yankee culture would have decimated the economy of the North. It is documented their fears of a strong South and the international trades going through New Orleans.

Now hold on a moment.
The Yankee Empire owes its existence to Southerners like George Washington and Thomas Jefferson.
Please have a modicum of respect.

Never forget, children, that this self loathing “southerner” continuously shits on one of the greatest Americans of all time and one of the greatest generals ever.

don't be sketchy.. the quote was:
thats not an attack on you, I'm simply stating your argument is moronic..
i.e.
that is a personal attack, has nothing to do with the argument I've presented.
again, bottom line -
do better.. be better

Let's see. Since we won the war for American Independence and formed a central government in DC, how many wars has the United States fought in that were necessary?
War of 1812? Where we wanted to pick a fight with GB and thought we could land grab Canada?
Mexican American war? Land grab
War for Southern Independence? Nope, got to control tariffs and the flow of money and low cost goods into the North for infrastructure and banks.
Spanish War? Oh yeah, where we were so concerned about Cuba's fight for independence we HAD to get involved. Also, land grab.
WW1? Did not need to be involved. Def did not need to establish treaties and post war conditions.
WW2? Maybe. Def did not need to drop two nukes on Japan. There was talk of surrender after the US firebombed the frick out of Tokyo (est 100,000 civilians dead) those school kids deserved it right?
Korean War? Nope
Vietnam? Nope again
Gulf War? Nope
Desert Storm? Military retaliation? Maybe. Occupation for 20 years? Nope
Iraqi Freedom? Nope.
We are still today doing what the North did to the South. It's like the bully that just invades another individual's personal space to get a response from them and a reason to beat their arse.
So we can look at the 200+ years of the wars DC has mired us into, yet in spite of what we know, you still think the North were the virtuous "good guys" in this? Like the Avengers or some simple 3rd grade BS.

The man was a genius, and a great leader of men.

I'm with you on the other points, but
at this one. quote:

The atomic bombs saved Japanese lives.
