Andersonville

Andersonville Prison (Camp Sumter) in Southwest Georgia
Camp Sumter, commonly called Andersonville, was one of the largest military prisons established by the Confederacy during the Civil War. In existence for 14 months, over 45,000 Union soldiers were confined at the prison. Of these, almost 13,000 died from disease, poor sanitation, malnutrition, overcrowding, and exposure to the elements. The largest number held in the 26½-acre stockade at any one time was more than 32,000, during August of 1864. Today the beauty of the prison site belies the suffering that once took place inside the stockade.

Andersonville is a small town with a national historic site.

Andersonvillain

The villains of Andersonville: Fake-ass people who live in Andersonville, a north-side Chicago neighborhood. Faux-liberals who whine about gentrification, housing prices, and homelessness but then brag about their hood as the “second coolest in the world”. They preach acceptance and inclusion while judging everyone and attempting to run pedestrians over for walking too slowly at intersections. You’ll know an Andersonvillain when you see one: a basic person who shares their ill-formed opinion loudly while trying to be unique, but who instead walks past 8 independently owned coffee shops to get their PSL at Starbucks just for the reward points.

A: Those people with the baby stroller on Clark street ran right into me. They were talking so loudly about how exited they are about the new salad restaurant.

B. Yeah they are the worst. What a couple of Andersonvillains!
