You admitted that you wouldn't have minded a few more decades of slavery over action against slavery. There's no getting around that.

your previous question:
Is a few more decades of slavery acceptable to you with a Southern win?

And here is my exact response:
"If it resulted in better race relations after emancipation than what was created by the Northern carpetbaggers during reconstruction."

That you would prefer what occurred, with it's disaster in race relations and the extreme bitterness that resulted, to a gradual emancipation over a few decades that would have avoided these things and put civil rights many decades ahead in the long run, is just further proof of your irrational thinking.

Of course I prefer freedom for blacks over slavery. Things weren't easy for a lot of people through the 19th and 20th centuries. The fact that you think blacks would've been better off as slaves proves that you have no real sense of what freedom is and that I never mischaracterized you at all.
