Idiots like you who cling to a 6th grade level of understanding of the war are just as bad as the ignorant rednecks who cling to the “Lost Cause” myth.

Neither group can fathom looking at the war objectively in an effort to actually understand it. No, instead y’all yell at each other as though today were July 3rd 1863 and they were standing at the bottom of Cemetery Ridge and your side was at the top.

You aren't practicing any 'objectivity' either, man. You are pretending that your perspective is the objective one, but aren't considering what your sources are nor what bias they may possess. It is a real sloppy way of reaching 'objectivity' in terms of 'reproducibility,' as you aren't doing the basic work that historians do to reach any standard of impartiality. Maybe you should try to pick up some techniques of modern historians rather than scream into the either about 'modern viewpoints.'
