Yeah the mechanized culture was coming.

That would have been great news to a 30 year old man who has been in bondage his whole life. Good news! You get to die a slave...but massah might just buy himself one of them John Deeres.

That kind of logic insults the intelligence of any man born with a soul.

The assertion that the Union was going to do anything about it had they won quickly is also a kind of logic that insults the intelligence of any man born with a brain.

Let us attack this delusion head on.

Was the 18,000 man task force led by Brigadier General Irvin McDonnell going to Richmond to free the slaves? Was that his orders?

How about some honesty here?

Dont know. Dont care.
I dont even care if the war wasn’t about slavery.

The fact that you would have put off the question another forty or fifty years is simply bizzare.
