>>27333223>He had legitimate reasons for doing what he didOkay no fuck you and fuck whatever other argument was going on here, fuck off, BENEDICT ARNOLD HAD NO FUCKING "GOOD REASON" FOR DOING WHAT HE DID AND I'M NOT LETTING THAT SLIDE ON USA/CANADA FREEDOM WEEKEND.
Did he get passed up for promotions? Yes. Did he get less credit than he thought he deserved for Ticonderoga and Saratoga? Absolutely, that's what happened. But that doesn't AT ALL justify betraying your fucking country, that you FOUGHT FOR FOR YEARS, so he CLEARLY BELIEVED IN THE CAUSE AT ONE POINT OR ANOTHER, just for some fucking British coin and some kind of fucking recognition.
That fucking piece of shit wasn't the only one who wasn't getting everything he wanted, there were MANY heroes in the Revolution who didn't get what they wanted, but he was the ONLY ONE who was so much of a bitch that he ran to the British. And even tried to lead another army AGAINST US, not just attempting to give them a fort, but actively seeking to shed the blood of his own prior brothers in arms, HOUNDING FOR THE CHANCE TO, EVEN.
NEVER give him respect on Freedom Weekend.
