>assassinated by losers holding a grudge against him while wandering the world

BRVTVS is far more iconic than Alcibiades.

Weren't the north the traitors? The slavery-welfare system for cotton workers was being phased out and black folks would be equal in a decade. Northern aggression wasn't due to this but rather the machinations of the federal government which had long desired to extend its tendrils over the South.

Brutus was putting his loyalty to the Republic ahead of his personal loyalty to Caesar. He was too heroic to be a traitor and his bad rapt is in a large part due to medieval "scholars" who cared more about justifying the church and nobility than presenting an accurate view of history.

Alcibiades on the other hand betrayed literally everyone for his own benefit alone. He even knocked up the King of Sparta's wife after he gave him asylum.
