Comment on Justice for Longstreet
LemmySuxNow@reddthat.com 3 weeks agoLost Cause types blame Longstreet for the loss at Gettysburg and therefore the entire war. Even though he tried to tell Lee that his plan of “send my entire army across a giant open field directly into enemy artillery” was shit and suggested the far more reasonable plan of moving toward DC and entrenching themselves to scare the congress into peace talks which may have actually worked.

Edit: the meIRL-ness of “yo, dude, no, don’t do that! Shit, I fucken told ya. You know what? Fuck you, and fuck this all” is glorious.
