I always laugh when people trot out unrelated faults(real or imagined) to discredit someone. It's like saying "That Peyton Manning guy is good football player, but he's so awful at bowling."

Pershing was good at his job, but the wars that he fought in (Spanish-American, Philippine Insurrection, and WWI) are fairly inglorious and he never quite captured the modern public's imagination. The most common thing that people seem to "know" about Pershing is that bullshit story that he had Muslim rebels in the Philippines buried in pigskins.

Acquilae posted:Yeah I was lucky to have a U.S. history teacher who was a military mega-nerd; I still remember his stories about World War I like Pershing when he first arrived to France, the French generals were ready to greet him and they didn't even notice Pershing walk past them because he was in his normal uniform ready to battle and they were all decorated in dress uniforms. Also agree with the inglorious part because WWI was very brutal where you could walk across battlefields and never step on land with all the bodies laying there and motivation for any country to avoid war. The only Pershing story I remember from US History was of how he chased Pancho Villa around northern Mexico for a year, using what might have been a the first ever use of a powered military vehicle (a homebrew armored car), and never came close to catching him.

On the subject of Lazmataz, I lurked /mu/ for a year and half and remembered this one troll with the same name that was a gay brony who liked synth music and thought synth music was superior to everything. So, I'm hoping that it's just a troll.

While freep opinion is not literally monolithic, it's still a hivemind. The thing is, the tone of an invocation of MLK or Lincoln is entirely contextual. Is the thread about some pro-civil rights article? Then King was an evil miscegenatin' commie who got what was coming to him. Is it about Republican racism? Then MLK was a conservative and if he were alive today he'd be standing his ground with the Tea Partiers against the urban ferals.
