And the reality of the time is we did nothing to stop slavery in the Caribbean and Brazil. Apparently our moral high horse only extended to those people who could be financial threats to the crony capitalist power structure still running the Capitol today.

If it was about slavery, once slavery was abolished the country would let the states go and become independent countries. They had a right to secession. If fighting slavery required suppressing secession, once slavery ended they wouldn’t try to stop states from seceding.
Because the Confederate plan was to take those territories and incorporate them into their country. Duh.
