Where we meme (joking in tone and detail, serious in sentiment) about General Sherman, the Civil War, and how the secesh traitors had it coming.

RULES

  1. No bigotry. The Union, or at least the part of the Union WE support, fought AGAINST that shite. We are anti-racist, anti-sexist, anti-homophobic, anti-transphobic, and in general anti-bigot here, even if not all the lads in Union blue uniforms were.

  2. No Confederate sympathizing. Anti-democratic racist slaver traitors don't deserve shit.

  3. Follow all Lemmy.world rules

"Damn! Blew the fuel injection manifold. Strong stuff, all right: it'll take me a month to rebuild it."

So Doc could build a steam powered refrigerator, could rebuild a fuel injection manifold in a month given 1880s tools, didn't even think to build a carburetor. In the same amount of time it took him to make railroad wheels and do all the other things they needed for their little scheme.
