I’ve read plenty bozo and they all tell the same story:

You are right. They will all tell the same story because they are all coordinated propaganda from the same source. Fortunately though, we have records that demonstrate these "stories" they are telling are in fact deliberately misleading lies.

You cannot escape the fact that the South produced ~3/4ths of all European trade. That those 5 million citizens of the Union in the South were producing ~200 million in trade value, while the 20 million Union citizens in the North were only producing 78 million in trade value.

Oddly enough, all that money was ending up in New York. Funny that. It's almost as if New York had somehow rigged the system to make sure they were getting a huge cut of all that slave earned money.

And you can't escape the fact the South fought a war to preserve slavery and lost. Nothing, absolutely nothing is ever going to change that.
