This meme brings up many questions, like who inflicted that extra 2.7% of casualties on Grant? And was Lee using necromancy on .5% of his troops? And why has data analysis ruined my appreciation for a good meme?
Not sure you’re reading this right. This is percentage of casualties inflicted/received. It would be very unusual if they mirrored each other.
I’m absolutely sure I’m reading it wrong. In retrospect, probably deliberately, but in my defense, I got completely entranced by the idea of Confederate necromancy… the concept of Lee summoning the dead in a last gasp to save the South is as delicious as Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Slayer.
And I
wasam high. Which isn’t a defense, but it makes for one hell of an offense.“It’s not enough that those secesh bastards enslave the living, now they’re enslaving the dead too!”
Now what are the estimates for the upcoming one?
