That a country should honor and glorify its enemies - or that anyone actually even really wants us to start doing that that - is a dopey argument, no matter how many clever debating gambits you put around it.
I’m not trying to be clever. New nations form all the time, almost always through violence. The problem with the Confederacy wasn’t secession, it was slavery. John Brown was a traitor, as well. I’d happily see statues of him

You can’t expect to be a traitor to any country and have statues erected to you by that same country after you lose, slave state or otherwise. The British would absolutely NOT have put a statue to Washington in Trafalgar Square if they had lost. That’s silly.

Not trying to play gotcha games. Legitimately interested: how do you feel about about a John Brown statue?
