[@kaisermarxistdixie6842]

The history of the song Dixie is actually kinda complicated, it was originally written in 1859, and from what I know Two arms in dixie seems to be the closest to the original, union dixie seems to be an attempt to reconstruct what Unionists might have played. Fun fact Abraham Lincoln actually liked the tune of Dixie.

[@That_50s_Guy]

The one he plays in the video isn't the actual song dixie, it's a variation of the song altered to be more militarized. The original song says "Away down south in dixie" instead"To arms in dixie"

[@Bungerbrown]

@@TheTinyDiamondso you’re blatantly saying the the Union was the aggressor to disprove his point that “Billy yank was out for blood”?

[@TheTinyDiamond]

@@Bungerbrown My point wasn't at all that "the Union was the aggressor" in the Civil War (though "can states legally secede?" _was_ an unanswered question at the time so I suppose you could argue that). I was joking about how OP said the _Union_ was "out for blood" and the Confederates were "just having a good ol' time" despite the fact that the _South_ had seceded and was fighting tooth-and-nail against an -in 1860, unfounded- fear that the Lincoln administration would interfere with slavery in the _states_ and thereby basically destroy Southern society, while the North was just "we can't let them leave" rather than anything like "they're gonna destroy our culture and incite race war (on the side of the slaves)." Apparently the joke didn't land.
