That would be honest of the the "History"...cough... Channel.
What history book or historical outlet are you basing that 'claim' on? I'm a fan of Civil War history, grew up near and immersed myself in the major battlefield parks, etc..

That's not something I have ever read/heard before? The German immigrants may have been the largest ethnic group in the Union, but I seriously doubt the were the 'single largest' period. My hunch would be England, Wales etc..

I don't even think the German / American population was much over 15 maybe 20% of the total US pop around the time the Civil War broke out.

Yes the whole world is anti-conservative...it's a struggle -- just own it and move on.

So tired of the whining.

What happened to the History Channel? I remember watching WWII history documentaries . Documentaries about guns and actual History....
I was watching WW-II documentaries on History Channel (Military Channel). I have never seen any politics there, which is why I like to watch them. Them, and National Geo. Actually it was re-named again to AHC Channel (American Heroes Channel). At one point it was called Discovery Wings Channel.

You are obviously too far to the left you need to look more closely, the science channels, NPR, weather channel are all left wing propaganda.

Many great channels and stations have been invaded and taken over by liberal arts graduates. All we can do to fight back , is cut the cord.

I see. I watched few hour documentary of Auschwitz on it. I suppose that is just a left wing conspiracy (according to alt-right). Never happened, right? And the weather news are just a conspiracy too. Sunny skies every day, even when its pouring.

Everything is a conspiracy to the die-hard alt-right.
