Well that is an opinion which I am sure you feel honestly. We agree that we disagree. I think he was one of the great American Generals. My family was not here during the Civil War, did not start arriving here to around 1890 to 1900 in New Orleans. They adopted the Unionist position (Vs the lost cause narrative that was being pushed in the late 19th/early 20th century) and were aligned with all of the Catholic ethnic groups more so found in the Northern and Midwestern cities than with the dominate protestant (WASP) dominated politics of the former confederacy (other than New Orleans and South LA).

But I totally understand folks from TENN, MS, AL, GA whose families were part of the secessionist movement and fought with the Confederacy even though I 100% disagree with what they did and the subsequent political ideology that followed the Civil war and permeates much of the political culture. In my Catholic schools coming up, the nuns I had did not teach the Lost Cause Southern Narrative at all.

So like I said, everyone does not have to agree with everyone, everyone does not have to like everyone and that includes people here not caring for us Church of Rome adherents found throughout South LA, like me and what I believe. That does not bother me 1 iota.
