Genuinely a lot of people do not know how barbaric the Civil War was for both sides. For instance, it was common for southern women to wear necklaces made from teeth of dead Yankee soldiers that their husbands would send home and the Union Army massacred various Southern towns, in many cases resulting in the town’s utter disappearance. In regards to prisoners of war both sides provided abhorrent treatment to captured soldiers. Andersonville Prison for the Confederacy, and Point Look Out for the Union.
I dont know of any instance of any federal force doing anything above what they did in Atlanta, but gurilla forces did some messed up stuff throughout the entire war. Probably the worst was committed by a rebel party, who sacked an entire town, killing every man and boy they came across. And all because the town was unionists and abolitionist...
@@Captine3250 Certainly the Rebels were horrible and you’re right they did massacre people, Morgan’s Raiders being the worst of them. However, don’t whitewash the Union, they did their fair share of Warcrimes. A particular example are the atrocities the Union Army of Tennessee under Sherman waged during the Meridian Campaign wherein the city of Meridian was utterly laid to waste thus ceasing to exist.
Oh, no, correction. Even though Meridian was ransacked and massacred by Union forces who spent the week of February 14-20 destroying railroads, burning buildings and homes, and confiscating anything of value. It was able to recover after the war. So despite General Sherman reporting that Meridian no longer exists, which is where I got the misconception from, it does still exist today.
@@zackkilgore528 I didn't mean to sound like I was whitewashing what they did, I just was unaware of anything that the union regular and volunteer troops did on par with their gurilla counterparts. I did a cursory search on the burning of Meradin, and it seems pretty consistent with what Sherman did to Atlanta, Sherman ordered everything but private households in Meradin to be burnt (hotels, store houses, rail roads, barns, ect.) This did result in the civilian populace not having a large amount of food, but I'm Sherman's eyes it was a tactical action to prevent the rebs from using the town to their advantage. In hindsight it wasn't necessarily. The union army did cause the town to be wiped off the map, but it does sound misleading since the entire town was not destroyed. It is also not reported that the union ever directly harmed anyone in the burning.
@@zackkilgore528 ah, I didn't even look into that. I also don't think massacred is a word to describe it, as there were no reported casualties inflicted by union troops from the civilian populace.
I can honestly feel the Southern pain in this song, i mean sure what they fought for was not the best, but the love for your nation, in this case the Confederacy, is too great to be ignored. This is also a massive banger.
@@that7madyeah. It's ok for the colonies to do it ... But NOT the Confederacy. The colonies wanted violent revolution from a nice king, Confederacy wanted to peacefully secede... But of course, tyrants can't let that happen
it is actually the same as I'm a good ol rebel, but the album I had got it from had it named as "Unreconstructed Rebel" so I just put that since I figured it would stand out more
80% of Southern Whites were too poor to own a single slave. The vast majority of the Confederate soldiers, therefore, were not slavers. Their generals and their Government may be, sure, but the same can be said for Ulysses S. Grant and Mary Todd Lincoln.
@@erynkrieger1279 well, so did Mary Todd Lincoln, Ulysses S. Grant, and Abraham Lincoln when he ghost wrote and later supported the Corwin Amendment. Look, the Confederacy was atrocious, it’s leaders were atrocious, but it’s pretty deplorable that you cast the common man as secular devils because they were duped by State Sentimentalism and the propaganda of the Plantation Aristocracy.
@@erynkrieger1279 to completely, and utterly make my stance clear. Both the Union and the Confederacy were slave powers. Both were morally bankrupt factions that had laid their country to waste over fanciful designs of grandeur. The Union for attempting to establish and Ethno State and the Confederacy for attempting to maintain the power of an outmoded institution with pretenses of Aristocracy.

Isn't this song just "I'm a Good Ol' Rebel"? I'm not sure where the other name comes from, as this seems to be the exact same song.

Basedaf hard to believe a song like this was written
Does anyone know who sings this cover?
Imagine if Lincoln was still alive during the reconstruction
He would deport all afro Americans in Liberia just as planned during the war😢
Now we have to deal with their gangs and the rap music😢
"Im a good old slaver"....
Freed one people, subjugated another.

What os the national animal of the confederacy ?
I don't know that it ever had an OFFICIAL (i.e. government-recognized) anthem, "Bonnie Blue Flag" and "Dixie" would be the strongest contendors.
Another strong contender for the CSA’s national anthem would be “God Save the South”
Ki-YEE!!!!!!!

Probably referring to how a good amount of slave owners and confederates fled after the Civil War to Brazil were slavery was still legal.
Lol. Cope and seethe
Oh no
Cursed flag map
Skill issue
Logistics issue. Yankees lost 100k more men with 5x more people and 30x more industry and more advanced weapons. Maybe it is a skill issue after all.
