That lies are embedded we can be certain. This is why the Civil War is so strangely controversial. Because lies were inserted into the history books to protect the reputation of the democrats.

Our biggest mistake is not questioning the history books. Maybe due to being intimidated by progressivist “scholars.” Maybe just apathy or laziness.

It’s time to reject what we’ve been told.

It seems the larger narrative, the level most people focus on, is where the lie sits.
Questions of how many slave states the union had, or questions about who outlawed slavery when are important. But the larger view has been the target of the left. They have deceived us.

The takeaway point is what matters most because it has the greatest impact: that the democrats were the party of slavery and the republicans were the party of abolition.

Dinesh D’Souza has done research which corrects the falsehoods.

Thank you. Odd isn’t it? How people who claim to be conservative Republicans and come to a conservative website getting all fired up defending Democrat slave holders and treasonous bastards who were responsible for the bloodiest war in American history.

Lincoln was not an abolitionist and want to send the blacks to the Caribbean or back to Africa.
