I’m not saying the other issues don’t matter - during the civil war or in our time.
I’m saying the core issues - slavery and Marxism are defining.They’re the black and white, the good and evil - that matter.
As far as ‘what kind of people are we’... Grant was a drunk. Robert E. Lee was a gracious gentleman. Grant’s side was right - Lee’s side was wrong. On the larger issues the ‘what kind of people’ question doesn’t matter. You can be a good person on the wrong side or a bad person on the right side.
Our side is in the right. Of that we have no disagreement. But the hypocrisy of the right creates the left to begin with. Where do you think they come from? And don’t say they are indoctrinated. They are. But they need to be ripe for indoctrination. They are.
“Grant’s side was right - Lee’s side was wrong.”
In every way, or just in one way?
And if it be the latter, what way was that?
