Why is this guy seen as a hero?
At best he's a lucky incompetent fool, at worst he's a malevolent plotter
>>886384
What if he was a lucky incompetent plotter fool?
>>886384
Americans idolize dumb luck and crafty trickery, along with determination, bravery and strong idealism.
His and the other founding fathers possession of those traits is probably the origin of that.
>>886384
Because america is filled with lucky incompetent fools.
Stay mad, Britcuck.

>implying he actually did the massacre and the French didn't just make him sign a confession in a language he didn't understand

He's a hero because he assumed political power in a time of crisis and then gave it back the second he had the option to.

>implying he actually did the massacre and the French didn't just make him sign a confession in a language he didn't understand
He did though
The "battle" of Jumonville Glen was nothing but an unecessary massacre caused by Washington's incompetence
>>886961
>and the French didn't just make him sign a confession in a language he didn't understand
How dumb did he have to be?
Even without taking in account the fact that French was the lingua franca of the time and that George should have understood it if he wasnt such an uncultured swine, words like "assassination" and "massacre" are literally the exact same in French
It should have rung a bell when he saw them on the confession....

He literally founded the nation that has ignorance as its highest ideal.
Wait
He killed our diplomats ?

Don't forget the fact that for a long while he was losing America the war because of his insistence on using tradition European tactics as a general when the guerrilla tactics were far better in almost every way, and only started to finally win the war again when he caved and used guerrilla tactics.
Also recall that when he was President he did almost everything in his power to totally betray the revolution by using a standing army to subjugate people who opposed his taxes.
>>886921
We could talk about how inbred the European aristocracy is if you'd like, serf.
I fail to see how Washington could have ever foreseen working with the French in a war against the British. As a young officer he probably never thought he would be a part of a rebellion against Great Britain.

“d, and by the time he had twenty thousand acres under his belt, he petitioned Governor Dinwiddie to make good on the vouchers’ promise, which Dinwiddie did. Only after the vouchers had been scooped up for a song and Washington had all the land IOUs in his pocket did the Virginia House of Burgesses authorize the money to convert the land vouchers into real land. The vouchers were cashed, and Washington was suddenly a very wealthy real estate magnate. The wars were extremely profitable for George Washington. Eventually he managed to acquire some sixty-three thousand acres in the Trans-Appalachia region, using all sorts of schemes to circumvent laws—like subdividing lands that exceeded the maximum allowable acreage and then registering each land separately. As historian Thomas Slaughter wrote, “Washington’s methods for acquiring frontier acreage were machine-like in their efficiency.”
And while Washington may not have been able to tell a lie, he sure was capable of playing the role of heartless absentee slum lord. Even as the economy in his fiefdom worsened, Washington was notorious for kicking squatters off of his land.
In rural western Pennsylvania, life became increasingly difficult from the 1780s through the 1790s[…]”

Shay's rebellion was suppressed by a privately raised militia, and the whiskey rebellion was resolved without a battle. Reducing the Revolution to "lol tax evasion" like our Brit friends are so fond of doing completely ignores the bigger issue of representative government.
