I always hated the term, “native Americans,” but that comparison between Northerners and Southerners is about the dumbest-ass thing I think I’ve ever read. Just where the hell does the author think all those pre-Civil War Northerners disappeared to? They kept on moving, pioneering out to the mid-West, big West and Pacific Coast.
And just what would have happened to the Confederacy if the South actually won? An economy built on slave labor and cotton mills, run by savagely oppressing blacks, who would be the majority population? It would be world-infamous as a the most savage regime on Earth!...
Unless Abraham Lincoln was right that slavery as an institution would die on the vine, once the North established states’ rights. That’s right folks. It’s unthinkable that such a brutal, deranged nation would persist as such into the 20th century. See, those blood-thirsty, gore-crazed Confederate hooligans that started the Civil War were the ones arguing in front of the Supreme Court that there existed no such thing as states’ rights. The South wanted its Fugitive Slave Act, whereby Southern militias had every right to invade the North whenever and wherever they wanted to hunt down refugee slaves. When Abraham Lincoln was elected, he swore he had no intention to ban slavery. He withdrew forces from six of seven Southern Atlantic forts. He asserted that the North had no authority to prohibit slavery. But he also asserted that the Western territories had the rights to select their own destiny, and the Northern states had no obligation to permit their territory to be routinely raided by Southern paramilitary squads.
And for that, the South determined he, and the union, must die.
