Comments by "King Ace" (@kingace6186) on "Death of The Confederacy: Sherman's March to the Sea | Animated History" video.
@gorillaeggs8199 BS. A state have no right to secede from the Union. Especially not over slavery. Moreover, Lincoln guaranteed the South that he wouldn't force abolitionism on the South. Yet, all but 5 slave states seceded.

Yeah. Even by Geneva standards, those are fair targets. General Sherman tried to avoid civilian casualties while maximizing damage to the Confederate war machine. (His post-Civil War crimes against Natives are different story tho.) HOWEVER, the acts done by Jefferson C Davis count as crimes against humanity.

Honestly, even by Geneva standards, Sherman was no war criminal. (On the other hand, Jefferson C Davis definitely was.)

@TheWoollyFrog Yeah, he kept that same energy when he fought Native Americans after the Civil War.

I also like how he wasn't "just following orders". The March South was his idea, and he did it because that was the quickest and most efficient way to win the war.

@royale7620 "Robbery" or Owning slaves? The greater crime is obvious.

@8ball279 If the South didn't want to get burned to the ground, then Confederates shouldn't have committed treason against the Union just to keep their slaves. Womp Womp
