    Benedict Arnold

    Hot take: not a traitor. Was (eventually) loyal to the established government of the time.

    Was also more or less forced to be a traitor as his home and possessions were being repossessed due to him being away and fighting a war for independence. Capitalism don’t care who’s in charge.

    Most people would ultimately choose to support their family. It’s wrong that his name is synonymous with traitor.
