Near the end of the war, Lincoln would be assassinated by famous actor John Wilkes Booth, a member of a secret society called the Knights of the Golden Circle.
The Knights of the Golden Circle became very wealthy by establishing completely unrestricted slave companies that could maximize profits. Their original plan was to try to have the US invade and conquer everything throughout the Caribbean (Cuba, Haiti/Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Bahamas, Puerto Rico, etc.) and all the Central American countries bordering the Gulf of Mexico (which would form a "Golden Circle") in order to bring back the old colonial slave systems with little oversight. When that failed, they attempted to secede as a Confederacy and eventually attempted to expand southward. They also attempted to gain control of Mexico and South American countries in order to bring back Slavery through mercenaries known as Filibusters.
But yes, the Lost Cause was literally invented decades after the fact when rednecks, who are mostly descended from plebeian families of indentured servants/religious outcasts, were tricked by the Gentrys who despised them before the Civil War and, since they had lost their slaves, made them think that they were both closer and of noble/aristocratic origin because they were white, using them as a political weapon against their former black servants.
Many of the Confederate statues that were removed some time ago by BLM were not even a century old. There were some that were erected shortly after the war for purposes of reconciliation among veterans, but many were erected in the 1920s, 1930s, or even 1950s or 1960s to score political points among anti-civil rights groups with no real ties to the Confederacy other than geography.
