The irony in Sam calling the British soldiers "lobsterbacks" lies in the fact that while he intended to insult them by referencing their red uniforms, he inadvertently highlighted the very trait that made them easily recognizable on the battlefield. This nickname, derived from the color of their coats, also reflects the colonial perception of British forces as both formidable and somewhat ridiculous. Sam's use of the term underscores the tension between the colonists and British troops, emphasizing the absurdity of their conflict. Ultimately, the term serves as a reminder of the deeper social and political divisions of the time.
