Confederate Insurrectionist Names Restored to Forts

[MajorRewrite]

To honor those who fought to preserve slavery, the Trump administration is changing the names of forts back.

Apparently the administration thinks it’s vitally important to show white supremacists that Trump supports them unequivocally.

The decision strips names chosen in 2023 to honor top leaders, such as President Dwight D. Eisenhower, as well as Black soldiers and women.

When Democrats take control again, we should rename them all to Confederacy slave names.

If they want to represent the Confederacy, let's do it proper.

Funny how the Insurrectionist in Chief supports rebels and insurrectionists when he wants the Southern vote, but whines like the man-child he is when people protest against him wanting to be King. And he's threatening 'very big force' against anyone who dares to disturb his vanity parade that replaces the Vietnam Vet memorial day.

Or should that be 'Suckers and Losers Memorial Day'.

"Fort Harriet Tubman"?

"Fort Harriet Tubman"?

Good choice. Also:

Fort Frederick Douglass
Fort Sojourner Truth (Fort Truth!)
Fort Blanche K. Bruce
Fort Robert Smalls
Fort Joseph Rainey
Fort Booker T. Washington
Fort George Washington Carver

Don't forget Fort Sally Hemings.

Is it really going to be an endless back and forth? I wish all forts were named for Revolutionary heroes. But the Federal government should have objected when the forts were first named instead of 100 years later.

Bold Prediction: Democrats will get REVENGE and get even by dismantling ALL of Trump's second term BUILLSHIT.

The former military bases renamed under Biden will be reinstated by the next Democratic President.

Not even the late former President Dwight David Eisenhower was spared from Generalissimo Trump and Drunk Hegseth's wrath.

 

[Ciceri]

DJT has no affinity for Confederates. This is just one more act to anger and divide Americans. That's why he was installed

Eisenhower signed two civil rights acts, so there was no way the MAGAs were going to leave his name on a fort. They consider him a “race traitor”.

 

[ll74]

A reminder that Robert E Lee was an enemy of the state who was involved in an insurrection and who flew a foreign flag.

As was every one of these fuckheads.

We have plenty of true American Generals and leaders who deserve the honor over these assholes.

 

[DeluxAuto]

MAGAts love losers like Confederates and Nazis.

Fun fact: there are no statues of Nazis in Germany. Why do we have Confederate statues?

 

[LLCox]

Ft. Bragg should not be given that name back. As the Commander of the Army of the Tennessee for a time he sucked.

 

[DeluxAuto]

You worship Nazis and Confederates.

Because Americans are idiots.
Lol

You still are under a monarchy and your king is from another country, you stupid wannabe American. .

Do you ever regret stepstooling to me?

Nothing, though, compares to Fort Hood, Texas, named after confederate turncoat John Bell Hood.

Hood was the most brilliant brigade commander at Gettysburg.

He was promptly promoted to Division commander and proceeded to get not one but two Confederate divisions under his command completely annihilated due to his own incompetence.

He had great combat instincts, but zero competence at the next level when he was tasked with things like, you know, feeding your troops, setting up field hospitals, communications between large fighting units, etc.

 

[Lance_Castro]

Americans worship Nazis and Confederates.

America runs its manual labour workforce with 12.5 Million Illegal Immigrant Slaves.

America’s leadership is owned by Russia.

Robert E. Lee opposed Confederate monuments

"I think it wiser…not to keep open the sores of war but to follow the examples of those nations who endeavored to obliterate the marks of civil strife, to commit to oblivion the feelings engendered."

"As regards the erection of such a monument as is contemplated, my conviction is, that however grateful it would be to the feelings of the South, the attempt in the present condition of the Country, would have the effect of retarding, instead of accelerating its accomplishment; [and] of continuing, if not adding to, the difficulties under which the Southern people labour."
