Honestly, thet website doesnt say much. But what I gathered was
Young, dumb as fuck, non-slave owning men fought a war under the threat of death for desertation or cowardice. Those are the truly evil ones.
Hey - I acknowledge that the foot soldiers of evil aren't usually as evil as the people in charge. I even said as much in an earlier comment in this thread. But they still fought for an evil cause. Their rich internal lives don't matter a whit to the people they hurt. So yeah. I'm not going to be upset in the slightest at someone pissing on their graves. They've earned the derision with their actions.
And we all deserve our graves pissed out for what our "leaders" have done, and who we've given money to.
I guess in the end, it doesnt matter. We'll be dead, all had shit leaders, and our graves will get pissed on eventually.
You keep trying to put really stupid words into my mouth, and it's getting grating. Confederate soldiers don't deserve to have their graves pissed on because a bunch of rich men thought it'd be cool to become traitors and set up their own government based on horrible principles. They don't deserve to be pissed on because they occasionally purchased sugar made at a plantation in Jamaica. They deserve to have their graves pissed on because they fought on behalf of slavery.
I've been very clear about my position this entire time. I have no idea why you keep trying to weasel-word me into some wishy-washy nonsense about how all people are bad or something.
