    "Marching Through Georgia" (sometimes spelled as "Marching Thru' Georgia" or "Marching Thro Georgia") is a marching song written by Henry Clay Work at the end of the American Civil War in 1865. The title and lyrics of the song refer to U.S. Army major general William T. Sherman's "March to the Sea" to capture the Confederate city of Savannah, Georgia in late 1864.

    During the Liberation of France a Village of French Soldiers played this for a group of American Soldiers from Georgia not realizing this song is about Union Soldiers ransacking the state as they pushed the rebels into the Sea.

      @FightPeople How are they dissimilar? They both demand territorial restoration based on a perceived historical ideal, both are rested in false pretenses of democracy and popular sovereignty but overshadowed by their imperialist positions, and both ultimately derive from a perceived need for autarky and establishing capability for global competition and larger spheres of influence. Keep seething, or nut up and provide some substantial reason as to how they're too dissimilar for my first comment to be accurate, instead of just relying on ad-hom like some Walmart-tier schizo.

    • @RA9U1
      @RA9U1 3 года назад

      @FightPeople If you admit our system is corrupt as hell, then you admit that it's just as honest as North Korea. The only difference you pointed out is that the Union has shorter terms for its apparatus figureheads/puppets, it's not a major difference, the major difference is the scale of power to project. Again, though, if NK and SK were united and allowed to have had their civil war play out to conclusion, they would have as much capability to achieve power as the Chinese and Japanese.
      The fact you, again, resort to ad-hom, only makes the truth of those "virgin old men 1700 years ago" all the more gravitating.

      @Kade Daivis Real question: Is he wrong?

    • @RA9U1
      @RA9U1 3 года назад

      @Kade Daivis But here's the thing, it's around, it's touted as progressive, unionists are touted as the bastions of progress in that era. So, by extension of their actions, were they not fighting to support the eventuality of the races becoming equal, in terms of equally hedonistic and degenerate, and equally subject to a federal government that will legally entrap you with an alphabet agency and either blackmail, imprison, or kill you?

    • @RA9U1
      @RA9U1 3 года назад

      @Kade Daivis So if you told them that if they had fought, that this would be the reality later on, they would not have, right?
      Would you say that they would have preferred separation if it meant that what's happening today, especially in the forms of accepted degeneracy today, would not be so?
      I'm just trying to get a bearing on this, because I was reading an article the other day of British veterans regret having fought for their country for what it has turned into.www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1229643/This-isnt-Britain-fought-say-unknown-warriors-WWII.html

    • @RA9U1
      @RA9U1 3 года назад

      @Kade Daivis You haven't read up on Lincoln if you think he was either a moderate and/or that he genuinely thought American blacks shoud be free. He was helping push forward a proposal for adding an amendment that would make it illegal to even contest the legality of slavery. He told black intellectuals such as Garvey and Douglas that it would be best for the black man, if granted his freedom and especially if he was intelligent, to go settle a wholly different land, and he suggested somewhere in Latin America. He ended up currying federal sponsorship to send blacks over to Liberia.
      He was against the idea of having blacks being truly free and in the nation. But, y'know, maybe his actual candid letters to Garvey and Douglas are just exaggerations or lies on his part. That he and the Southern rift over nation-hood was really over slavery, even though both parties explicitly stated the reasons were over perceived irreconcilable differences in econonomic conduct and/or maintaining a singular nation-state/superstate that presides and subverts and overrides state authority.
      The point still stands, and you admitted to it. That none of the Yankee soldiers would have fought if they knew the outcome of their victory. Especially so if you told them about our contemporary race riots.
      And Northern hypocrisy to make this conflict about the peculiar institution of slavery, is coming back to bite Yankees and people with a Yankee mentality, because the very founders were slave holders and frank and completely recalcitrant to the idea of a black man ever being a true equal to the white man. Their statues are being taken down along with the Confederates. The stars and stripes stand for slavery, oppression, and imperialism just as much if not moreso than the Confederate battle flag of the Army of Northern Virginia.
      In the article, it should be noted, almost all 150 of the replies to the inquiry were very negative. Only 2 notable exceptions, veterans who only held support roles (none of the combat vets felt this way), thought that Britain was still worth fighting for. My point still stands, if soldiers were told that the war they're fighting is not because of keeping an empire together, but to free blacks who would end up competing with them for jobs and for whom there's almost a primordial reviling of as if of separate species-dom, they would not have fought. Just as if you told American conscrpts in WWII, that their service would lead to the full political enfranchisement of blacks, growth in Communist subversion on the domestic front, and a consumerist popular culture that shunned the past, as we have now, they probably would have dropped their rifles and try to head home.

    “Marching Through Texas” - 2024 w/ Lyrics
    1. Bring the good old bugle, boys
We’ll sing another song
Sing it with a spirit that will
Start the world along
Sing it as we used to sing it
Fifty thousand strong
While we were marching through Texas

Chorus:
“Hurrah! Hurrah! we bring the jubilee!
Hurrah! Hurrah! the flag that makes you free!
So we sang the chorus from El Paso to the sea
While we were marching through Texas

2. How those Yankees shouted when
They heard the joyful sound
How the turkeys gobbled
Which our commissary found
How the sweet potatoes even
Started from the ground
While we were marching through Texas

3. Yes, and there were Union men
Who wept with joyful tears
When they saw the honor’d flag
They had not seen for years
Hardly could they be restrained
From breaking forth in cheers
While we were marching through Texas

4. “Biden’s dashing Yankee boys
Will never reach the coast!”
So the saucy rebels said
And ’twas a handsome boast
Had they not forgot, alas
To reckon with the host
While we were marching through Texas!

5. So we made a thoroughfare
For Freedom and her train
Sixty miles in latitude
Three hundred to the main
Treason fled before us
For resistance was in vain
While we were marching through Texas

    It was said that once Sherman was through burning Georgia he came west towards my home state of Louisiana. He tried to set fire to the city of Alexandria which was a stronghold before the second Confederate capital of Shreveport, LA, but was stopped by a shotgun-wielding preacher who vowed on the steps of his church that if General Sherman tried to light one torch to fire the town, though it would cost him his life, the preacher was going to take Sherman with him.

    • @averyrandomllama6516
      @averyrandomllama6516 3 года назад +2

      Sorry but this seems a bit iffy... Sherman's March only went through Georgia and at most to Mississippi, after that he turned north to North Carolina, he never once set foot in Louisiana during the march to the sea. I also checked the location of Alexandria and from what I can tell (correct me if I'm wrong) it seems likely that you're mistaken as I did some reading up about the history of Alexandria and Sherman's March to the sea and Alexandria in the Civil War was occupied by Union forces led by Nathaniel P. Banks and when leaving was accidentally burned down by two Union Corps when a strong wind had help spread it throughout the city. Also Sherman had never led a campaign into Louisiana so this occuring is highly improbable

    • @averyrandomllama6516

      I'm quite sure that story's fabricated. Right off the bat, the idea that Sherman was marching right in front and would even have talked to the man directly in such a situation is extremely unlikely.
      I get that many see Sherman as a villain, but to think that he'd have no qualms about murdering a preacher and burning a church until he himself was threatened is pretty cartoonish.

      They mostly burned down buildings of military value i.e. warehouses, railway hubs etc. Slaveholders did often have their private dwellings burned. Usually any homes that caught fire did so in conflagration as we have countless diaries and dispatches attesting to Union officers and men attempting to put them out, though its also known that some of the US soldiers didn’t really care. Of course, cities like Atlanta and Savannah were usually burning before the Union Army even arrived. CSA forces usually set fire to munitions dumps and bales of cotton before fleeing the city without evacuating any civilians which invariably led to rioting and panic.
