Lincoln didn't want to free slaves

The emancipation proclamation did nothing and explicitly exempted union states

He censored and imprisoned political opponents

1. Wrong

2. It freed the enslaved persons and there’s not much point in freeing enslaved persons in state that didn’t have them.

3.Only a little bit

Lincoln man. Lincoln. None of these fuckers would even exist right now as they are without him.

THIS calumny in particular has to be be corrected when it pops up like a herpes virus

It seems like he was kind of a liberal and wanted to get rid of it if it could be done without too much trouble. He pushed the 13th and 14th amendments so whatever.

He was just a power hungry, hypocritical centralizing shitlib, a dime a dozen , glorified by globohomo due to the egalitarian ratchet effect

Slavery was being phased out worldwide already , they didn’t need a war over it

What's important was that it was ended by force. Just letting a slow compensation process go through would have been 120 imo.

People associate morality with slavery ending but it ended due to the industrial revolution which was more efficient than having slaves . No industrial revolution, no end to slavery

That plus the late 1600s invention of fiat currency in England which turned everyone into slaves

Humanity is retarded

The end of slavery in most places involved some kind of compensation to the owners. Even Haiti paid France dearly for their freedom. Slaveholders were clearly evil so it's good that bad things happened to some of them and a lot of the people who rooted for them.

Obviously, Lincoln was undisputably the bad guy if you're the kind of person who supports, e.g., Palestine ("just because they own slaves doesn't mean they deserve to be killed en masse!"). I'm just a bit of a moralist.

Abraham Lincoln faced down a constitutional crisis of epic proportions (basically it can't get any worse), won, and preserved the union. If you care about the United States at all you have to acknowledge that Lincoln was the greatest POTUS of all time. He saved the Nation.

He arguably built the nation. Before him it was just a confederation of independent states. After, a centralized nation-state. It's analogous to the Meiji Restoration imo.

The war was arguably indirectly caused by slavery, but the Union didn't wage it as a fight against slavery. Many historians disingenuously conflate the cause and the purpose.
