For those who don’t know already, I have an ongoing series called “Checkmate, Atun-Shei,” which is where I analyze his videos, criticize them, and make some jokes at his expense. If you want to watch, here’s a playlist of the series.
Checkmate, Atun-Shei!

Jesus wants for you to stop being transgender.
He loves you as the boy or girl you were born as and is worried about your health and well-being.
I keep on hearing people say “the Prequels are bad,” yet no one can actually explain why or how they are bad.
It almost always boils down to personal preference. Rarely does anyone point to an objective flaw with the film that diminishes them in some capacity.
Do I hate Lincoln, the man? No.
Do I hate Lincoln, the politician? Yes.
He was a politician with a notorious reputation for being two-faced. Many of his political decisions were absolutely terrible.
Yet, as a man, I cannot hate him.
The Catholic Church aided thousands of wounded men during the American Civil War.
Hundreds of nuns volunteered their services to bring comfort to the sick, the wounded, and the dying.
Their good deeds are remembered by all Christians; Protestant and Catholic alike.
Be atheist. Be happy ❤️

The Catholic Church is the largest provider of Healthcare in the world. Including approximately:
Hospitals: ~5,377 to 5,500
Clinics and dispensaries: ~14,000 to 18,000
Homes for the elderly, disabled, and chronically ill: ~15,000 to 16,000
Orphanages: ~8,500

I can almost always tell someone has never watched “Gods and Generals” because they will say something stupid like “It’s Confederate Propaganda.”
Watching the charge of the Irish Brigade in the film refutes this quite handily.

What this post has taught me is just how little people know about the lead-up to the American Civil War.
An objective analysis of the events in question lead to the same conclusion: Lincoln is most responsible for instigating the conflict.
I still argue that this comment is one of the most poignant comments in online American Civil War discourse.
Every single time someone tries to refute this, they almost always prove the comment correct by doing exactly what the comment says they'd do.
Horrible grammar aside, it’s clear that this person doesn’t even comprehend the argument I presented in Episode IV of “Checkmate, Atun-Shei.”
The south seceded because Lincoln was imposing his will when he had no right to trifle with the matter. That is what prompted secession.
Fun fact:
Andrew Rakich (Atun-Shri films) is affiliated with the Satanic temple and also castrated himself because he’s a lunatic.
Yet there are plenty of idiots who still gobble up the lunatic’s content.
Reminds me of another lunatic everyone listens to…
Charles Sumner was openly insulting Preston Brooks’ cousin on the senate floor during a time when such a thing could get you murdered.
Stephen Douglas, whom Sumner was also attacking, said he was libel to get himself shot.
Sumner wasn’t innocent by any means.
Slavery is wrong.
Authoritarian measures are also wrong.
That’s the whole point.
Two wrongs don’t make a right. They tend to make graves, which is objectively worse than the original wrong it sought to end.
This argument is the ontological equivalent of arguing that someone who is opposed to PETA must like kicking puppies.
A man can be opposed to the institution of slavery, but also see Lincoln’s actions - and the Abolitionists in the US - as wrong.
It’s funny that he uses a quote from James McPherson’s “For Cause and Comrades.”
If I remember right, from McPherson’s studies, he found that only 20-25% mentioned slavery.
The rest did not.
For most, it was a non-factor.
Secession doesn’t dissolve the document.
It dissolves the ties a state to it and the union. To put it simply, it’s a legal mechanism in which a state severs its ties to the union in order to not be subjected to it.
This includes any contracts signed during statehood.
