That would be the current crop of the completely “flipped” politics from lincoln’s time, and appealing to the “white guilt” repubs— but it does not wash with Southern conservatives. Democrats, N and South were always on the federal money bandwagon to milk the money-even as they contained it. A continuous Progressive line from the “anti-slavery” post-Lincoln (after Stanton et al murdered him-an opinion) right through to FDR then to LBJ and Great Society. DC elites always invoke lincoln when the SHTF. But recall they also tried to paint this useful idiot obamaumao as 1.)Reagan, and 2.) FDR and even a little Teddy R! before they made him lincoln to punch all the right racialist buttons, with Spielberg/Hollywood help. Commies everyone of them. LOL!
You see, the issue was always labor capital (and who would provide it) and it was a change in plantation owners which was envisioned and intended by the Union— the growing industrial oligarchs (railroads, carpetbaggers, thieves, scalawags, liars) who were to shape the West and beyond AND they wanted to control the agricultural South. And they did- and what did the South get for their ruination? The logical conclusion to all this as these powers moved to a “globalist” frontier, would be to put everyone who remains on the gubmint plantation, in lieu of actually keeping our production in the US, and make EVERYONE dependent for a vote, and anything to maintain power in the one enslaving party— a ruling class.
For example: The entire intent of amnesty for illegals is to continue to fund the ponzi social security apparatus for a “non-working” lazy elite, by bringing in yet another labor class to milk (assumedly Mexican, but back in the 1870s it was chinese coolies and Irish). Oh, and also provide money to the bankrupted (by the same elite) social security trust fund and its IOUS— which w/out the illegals fake SS contributions would have already busted.
The mackdaddy obamaumao is the monkey to the globalist/Progressive organ grinders (and, you may recall the monkey had the tin cup for “donations”).
We must ALL resist and not rise to this sophistic “MEME” you have posted— it’s purpose is diversionary, and part of an oft-used tactic of the Comintern (the black-white schism MUST be maintained to continue the chaos of Cloward-Piven, and not keep our eye on the real events)especially through the elite ivy league “history” departments, with tenured indoctrinated useful idiots.
Want to fight this new “slavery”? Then resist— find common ground with black and white, and all who love Freedom, true conservatives (cultural, financial, social). People who refuse dependency over FREEDOM. That coalition is one the socialists fear the most. Refuse the Statists, and de-fund them.
Deo Vindice.

You say, "it does not wash with Southern conservatives", and I'm telling you, you folks have it all backwards.
You say Lincoln wanted "a change in plantation owners", but Lincoln never owned a plantation -- Marse Jefferson Davis did.
You say Lincoln wanted to "put everyone who remains on the gubmint plantation" but Lincoln never owned a slave -- Marse Jeff did.
You say we should "not rise to this sophistic “MEME” you have posted" but this, your word, "MEME" is exactly correct!
The person who wanted to expand plantations was Jefferson Davis, not Abe Lincoln.
The person who destroyed the Constitution to protect slavery was Jefferson Davis, not Abe Lincoln.
The person who started and declared war on the United States to defend his "peculiar institution" was Jefferson Davis, not Abe Lincoln.
So, FRiend, if you want to talk about the new "gubmint plantation", and fighting against "slavery", then you're talking about Davis, not Lincoln.
All Lincoln did was respond and win the war Davis started.
And I'm saying, you folks need to straighten your heads out about that, before we'll have a serious effort to defeat the new Marse Jeff.
