LT John William Grout of Worcester, Massachusetts was 18 years old when he was killed in action at the Battle of Ball’s Bluff on October 21, 1861. His family marked his absence at family events by keeping his empty chair at the table. Inspired by this, Henry S Washburn composed “The Vacant Chair”Submitted by Unionforever1865 t3_y9w22s in WorcesterMA

And your generation has accomplished what????? (crickets) Oh yeah, you rocket scientists discovered hundreds of new genders, that men can get pregnant and menstruate and say that with a straight face. You're the ones I see masked up while alone and out doors or in you car, you're fucking amazing!! You're the ones that discovered the green miracle that is going to replace petroleum. Oh, it's electricity, isn't that generated by burning fossil fuels, hmmmm. You geniuses managed to destroy everything the Civil Rights Movement accomplished with your imaginary institutionalized racism, CRT, white privilege and racists under every rock. Fortunately older blacks aren't buying it. It's astounding the great leaps you've made. Why you've even made America a safer place by defunding the police because they're the problem not the criminals, right???? Brilliant, you guys amaze me. Is there anything I forgot? C'mon dazzle me you Mensan.
