“this is an article about Lincoln and how great he was”
Someone from the south may see it differently.

“this is an article about Lincoln and how great he was” Someone from the south may see it differently.

Or someone not from the South who actually learned a lot of the history behind what he did and what happened.

He deliberately started a war which killed 750,000 people, and he destroyed the original federalism which the founders had left us.

He created the ever expanding leviathan state and he enshrined the corruption into our government which is now known as the "deep state" and otherwise known as the corruption industrial complex.

Only if they are historical morons. Any one who has studied our history realizes how damn lucky we were to have Lincoln. Things could have and would have turned out far worse without him.
