    Explanation: There was something of an ideological divide in expat/immigrant Italians fighting in the US Civil War - many of those fighting for the Union were veterans of the forces of the great liberal revolutionary Giuseppe Garibaldi - and many fighting for the Confederacy were veterans of the Bourbon monarchy of Two Sicilies which Garibaldi played a part in defeating.

Where we meme (joking in tone and detail, serious in sentiment) about General Sherman, the Civil War, and how the secesh traitors had it coming.

RULES

  1. No bigotry. The Union, or at least the part of the Union WE support, fought AGAINST that shite. We are anti-racist, anti-sexist, anti-homophobic, anti-transphobic, and in general anti-bigot here, even if not all the lads in Union blue uniforms were.

  2. No Confederate sympathizing. Anti-democratic racist slaver traitors don’t deserve shit.

  3. Follow all Lemmy.world rules
