Don’t forget the greedy slaveocracy that ruled from Richmond. It take two to have a war.

That is revisionist history by omission. Lincoln was the invader. When a nation is invaded, like the Confederacy, they either fight, or be enslaved.

You can only point that out if you are making the claim that this same greedy slaveocracy would not have existed under a continuation of the Union as it was before the war.

Trying to claim that the war was the consequence of something that would not change without a war is deliberately misleading.

Slavery would have continued for many decades longer in the Union without the war.
