Pete Hegseth is a Christo-fascist weirdo.

Rommel was a distinguished cadet at West Point, distinguishly served in the US Army, played a major role in the US coming back together, and swore allegiance to the US after the war? Who knew?

Did Lee ever apologize for or publicly regret the war, his insurrection, and involvement with slavery? Or was it “fine…let those negroes go free and let’s all just get along , I guess.”

Lee was given a choice which side to fight on. He chose dishonorably.

Lee chose not to be a traitor to his state, widely considered at that time worse than being a traitor to his country.

Portrait of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee with Slave Rehung at West Point

He's putting up the photo of someone wearing the uniform of an enemy of the United States of America.

Whose photo will he hang next? Marshall Erwin Rommel's?

BDKnitpicker at it again. The issue isn't that it's a painting of Lee, it's that it's a painting of Lee wearing confederate gray, the uniform of an enemy of the United States. Am I complaining about the portrait of Lee in a US Army uniform painted by William Edward West, honoring Lee's time as superintendent and hanging in the dining hall?

History has proven he chose wrong and dishonorably.

Nope. The correct and honorable thing to do in the mid 19th Century was to go with your state.

Unless you wanted to hold a country together or you were a slave.
