So keep demonstrating your inability to learn I don't care. You are completely wrong as to the meaning of the term "revisionism" when it applies to the American Civil War. I showed you what it means and that it has nothing to do with Leftism. In fact, it came about through the writings of pro-Southern historians whom I doubt were Leftist either.
But fact and Truth mean nothing to you and do not cause a pause in your hysterical ravings.

do you DENY that the DAMNyankees tortured/raped/assaulted/murdered THOUSANDS of INNOCENT, UNarmed civilians and CSA Prisoners of War, torched & looted churches, synagogues,hospitals, "crops in the field",private homes,schools, libraries & other NON-military "targets" in violation of the well-established LAWS of WAR??????
the records indicate that such ATROCITIES were COMMONPLACE! ALL of those acts are called WAR CRIMES & CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY.

No...an ultimatum is when you threaten WAR. They didn't do that. Webster's defines 'negotiate' as "arrange for or bring about through conference, discussion, and compromise." So if it wasn't an ultimatum then it sure wasn't a negotiation. There was no room for compromise, and nothing to discuss except recognition of confederate sovereignty and acknowledging their actions to be legal. So since there was no compromise possible and nothing to discuss except Lincoln's surrender to southern demands, I think that 'ultimatum' is an accurate description.

Yep.

Nope.
To: Non-Sequitur
in that case, you either think everyone here is STUPID and/or you're "in denial" about the DOCUMENTED facts.
the FACTS are that the HORRORS suffered by MY family were COMMON PLACE.
to quote Dr Susan Brownmiller, the union army "raged through the prostrate south, raping, robbing, looting & killing the defenseless, with gleeful abandon". in another place, she stated that, "the poorer you were and the DARKER your skin, the more likely you were to be SAVAGED, as it was "well known" to the union troops that NO OUTRAGE would be punished, unless it was against " the quality", landed, people.
as Dr Brownmiller is neither a southerner or "PRO dixie" in her outlook, you might think on that.

Susan Brownmiller is a feminist NUT. Thus it figures you would like her and give her credibility.

What page? You're quoting at length there, so you must have the source at hand.
as Dr Brownmiller is neither a southerner or "PRO dixie" in her outlook, you might think on that.
Nor is she a historian. She is a radical feminist polemicist whose primary agenda is to demonstrate that men control women through rape. It's not surprising that she'd take whatever lurid folk tales about marauding yankees she could find and toss them into her anti-male diatribe without bothering to check on their veracity.

You missed just about every pertinent point in this debate, foremost of which is that the NORTH supported slavery. Four Northern states were slave states. Additionally, virtually all the states supported returning escaped slaves to their owners (I think Lincoln even stood up for this but I'll have to check). Secondly, the North attacked the South at Ft. Sumpter and "jumpstarted" the war (even by Lincoln's own admission!). As for your desire to lock up any editors today, no matter how liberal or nutty, I most certainly oppose you on that. You and Lincoln would probably have gotten along just fine though:
With Congress not in session until July, Lincoln assumed all powers not delegated in the Constitution, including the power to suspend habeas corpus. In 1861, Lincoln had already suspended civil law in territories where resistance to the North's military power would be dangerous. In 1862, when copperhead democrats began criticizing Lincoln's violation of the Constitution, Lincoln suspended habeas corpus throughout the nation and had many copperhead democrats arrested under military authority because he felt that the State Courts in the north west would not convict war protesters such as the copperheads. He proclaimed that all persons who discouraged enlistments or engaged in disloyal practices would come under Martial Law.
Among the 13,000 people arrested under martial law was a Maryland Secessionist, John Merryman. Immediately, Hon. Roger B. Taney, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States issued a writ of habeas corpus commanding the military to bring Merryman before him. The military refused to follow the writ. Justice Taney, in Ex parte MERRYMAN, then ruled the suspension of habeas corpus unconstitutional because the writ could not be suspended without an Act of Congress. President Lincoln and the military ignored Justice Taney's ruling.

Presumably you can show us all where I claimed the Union fought over slavery? It is NOT at all what I have said EVER. So this means your snide nonsense is irrelevant at best.
And NO Northern states did not return slaves without federal coercion under the Fugitive Slave Act which was the Law of the Land. In FACT, there were riots caused by the capture and removal of slaves back to their masters. Where do you come up with this crap? It only shows complete ignorance of history.
"Secondly, the North attacked the South at Ft. Sumpter and "jumpstarted" the war (even by Lincoln's own admission!)." So Edmund Ruffin was a Yankee agent?
Lincoln acted as needed and I would indeed have "gotten along fine..." with him.
