War of Northern Aggression
Lincoln’s invasion of the South had nothing to do with moral compass. As with most wars, it was about money.

"The Southern Confederacy will not employ our ships or buy our goods. What is our shipping without it? Literally nothing. . . It is very clear that the South gains by this process, and we lose, No, we MUST NOT LET the South go.”
~ Union Democrat, Manchester, NH, Feb. 19, 1861

The reconstruction amendments were passed at rifle point, now we're all slaves.

You're slaves because you're among the few nations left in which people can be legally enslaved.

Wanting to keep the South in the union literally only makes logical sense from a moral and symbolic standpoint because those rednecks are useless economically, in fact statistically speaking most of them are a net drain on the economy, even in the antebellum era the North was superior economically because slavery is not conducive to economic growth since the slaves cannot participate in the economy they contribute to, limiting cash flow, internal revenue, and general economic stimulus.

depends on what degree you think slavery is a loaded term in modern context but according to the Global Slavery Index, slavery is pretty much present to some degree in every single country on Earth as of 2024

OK, so the concern was trade and shipping, not human rights. Got it.

Why do dishonest Southernoids cry so much about Habeas Corpus when Jeff Davies suspended it too?

I don't understand what the big deal is. You're repaying a debt to society. It's not like they're whipping you in the sun like a nigger with no water to drink. Plus most prisons actually "pay" prisoners with credit that they use to buy things in the prison commissary. So they aren't even really "enslaved" in the same sense. Melodramatic fags.

If Lincoln was president today he would seize all the media outlets, arrest journalists that call for violence and he would bring back the Sedition Acts.

The American left is LUCKY Donald Trump is in office right now
