Is anyone against memorials erected purely for the deaths of Confederate soldiers themselves? There are some memorials in Germany for the war dead that are not in any way a memorial for Nazi Germany. Obviously the Civil War isn’t pressing anymore since pretty much everybody who even knew an elderly Civil War vet is now dead, but a lot of people from both the North and South died in that war, and the vast majority of Confederate soldiers weren’t slave owners. In fact, people rich enough to own slaves bought their way out of the war.
