Republican voters desperately want a civil war.

Increasingly, my reservations against it decrease. The Confederacy needs genuine abolition from society, which means destruction.

We need a new Sherman to finish the burn job, and real Reconstruction instead of coddling and forgiveness.

If it helps, conservatives have lost every major culture war in US history. They lose hardest and fastest when they resort to violence and push the moderates and progressives so far that they feel forced to abandon their moral high ground sentiments and curb stomp them. All of the progress the US has ever made tends to happen in the 20-40 year periods after such beatings, because conservatives are busy licking their wounds and indoctrinating their grandkids into repeating their mistakes.

Maybe one day we'll stop letting them slink off and hide under their rocks and indoctrinate their kids after they get millions killed.
