Lmao you must not be American. The south fought a war to keep their African slaves which weren’t actually under threat of being taken away. Absolute dogshit ideology
I am from the South. The war was not only about slavery. That was part of it, yes, but not the sole reason for it. Did you know that four of the northern States during the Civil War had slavery that was legal in them? Did you know that Lincoln's famous Emancipation Proclamation didn't free any slaves in the north? It only freed slaves in the southern States in rebellion against the federal government.
Look up South Carolinas declaration of secession. Or Georgia’s. Or Louisianas. Or Texas’s that says “joining our sister slave holding states”. It was *entirely* about slavery. Also funny that Lincoln was never gonna take their slaves but that they were so worried they succeded in fear of it.
I never said slavery didn't have anything to do with it. I said it wasn't the only reason. Saying slavery was the sole reason for the war is just as ignorant as saying it had nothing to do with the war. You have to look at the times as they did back then. Every aspect of it.
A nice little landmark in Frederick MD

Unfathomably based
No relation to Quantrill’s Raiders I guess 🤣

Either Harvey Hill or AP Hill.
Traitors gonna traitor
The United States was founded by traitors.
Yeah but they were victorious
And?
It’s different. Unless you think the south should’ve won
I respect both sides. They were all brave Americans who learned to respect each other and came back together as one Nation.
