reality seems to be proving that the South was right on everything but slavery

Kind of like saying the Nazi's were alright except for that holocaust thing.

You do realize that slavery was dying out and that it disappeared in the North earlier because they could pay “slave wages” to newly arrived immigrants instead, right? They didn’t do away with slavery up there because it was “wrong” but because the alternative made more economic sense. If the roles had been reversed, I have no doubt that almost nothing would’ve changed.

“Kind of like saying the Nazi’s were alright except for that holocaust thing.”

Well, yeah, except that is the dumbest and least related possible analogy you could possibly come up with. I think the holocaust and Sherman’s wholesale slaughter of southerners is closer, but that’s just my gut reaction to genocidal maniacs in general.

[Know et al]

Your analogy is incorrect. The allies were not practicing genocide before or during the war.

Equating those who fought for the Confederacy with the Nazis really shows what little you know about this subject.

Get a clue. There is no comparison there.

your statement kinda proves a public school education. You might want to READ up on the subject before mouthing off.
