      Yes yes, history is nuanced but your actually a Nazi if you recognize that fact…

        History is nuanced, yes. Lost Cause bullshit and slavery apologists can GTFO tho. They’re not arguing in good faith so when you chime in to let everyone know how smart you are by supporting that nonsense, you know what it looks like, right?

          Bro it’s factually correct, you can read Lincoln’s diary discussing it. The statement “the civil war was about slavery” isn’t wrong it just lacking nuance in the same way the statement I added to was.

          Resolutions upon the subject of domestic slavery having passed both branches of the General Assembly at its present session, the undersigned hereby protest against the passage of the same.

          They believe that the institution of slavery is founded on both injustice and bad policy; but that the promulgation of abolition doctrines tends rather to increase than to abate its evils.

          They believe that the Congress of the United States has no power, under the constitution, to interfere with the institution of slavery in the different States.

          They believe that the Congress of the United States has the power, under the constitution, to abolish slavery in the District of Columbia; but that that power ought not to be exercised unless at the request of the people of said District.

          The difference between these opinions and those contained in the said resolutions, is their reason for entering this protest."

          Dan Stone, A. Lincoln, Representatives from the county of Sangamon
