All of this needs to be, for the same reason what Nazi Germany did should be remembered. Humans are dumb fucks and WILL do this again (after the US collapse, I mean), but maybe it will be held it off for a bit longer.
sparing so many nazis the noose was kind of a huge mistake. re-wilding huge portions of germany would have been the move to try and cut out this social cancer. we transplanted that shit into every world power after the war.
TBF, Hitler got a lot of his ideas from the US. Germany was just a smaller and less ethnically diverse country than the US, so there was less resistance to fascism.
Letting the South off easy after the Civil war was the big mistake.
it was. it got us the nazis. letting a single confederate officer (who wasn’t a double agent or something) avoid the noose was such a huge mistake. not dispossessing everyone who claimed to own another human completely was also a mistake.
Exactly. The government should have seized the land of every plantation owner that made a living from slave labor, and distributed it to former slaves as reparations.
yep, every single officer needed to hang if we wanted to genuinely win that war. at least have their families banned from holding any government office, elected or otherwise, and from holding more than a certain amount of property, for a generation or two.

Same mistake the US made going easy on the South after the Civil War. Look where it got us.
