The only reason they joined the union officially was because they were told they could keep their slaves.

@Ryan-IL why would a drug that keeps people docile and complacent be pushed so hard <:thinkplant:359034245777457173>

The emancipation proclamation applied officially only to the seceding states

or cause lincoln put them under federal occupation before they could convince their state senate to attempt to secede

That as well

Wait, this doesn't fit with my Northern education of South BAD, North GOOD

@Jakob-NY dude I've never though of that, I owe you a beer.

Welp neither side was really good or bad

I’m not salty against the north or anything

@DixieBoy76 - KY pretty much, but it was very clear cut in my Northern public school

@Nemets Blacks were banned from Oregon when it became a state but I don't think it was enforced for much longer than 1900 or so.

It was in the constitution.

They weren’t even allowed to visit Oregon lmao @nord

@Jakob-NY Fair enough. I pity our educational system

@DixieBoy76 - KY me too, lots I had to unlearn and reteach to others after graduation

Similar to the men who fought for the allies in World War Two, I’m pretty sure if you showed the union soldiers what would become of the cities like Baltimore, Detroit, Chicago, they’d not only take off their blue uniform they’d probably suit up for the south

In all fairness though, the Yankee cope is that Lincoln wanted to send them back

Well lincoln wanted to send the blacks back but never got around to it.

But it’s a total cope post

Just like Trump never got around to the wall, right?

Trump is the modern Lincoln confirmed

Holy-,...

Yeah just ask Dinesh D’Souza

Sitting here bored out of my mind,been in ER 4hrs now for Dad after dr apt,told me to bring him here since he had a really high white blood cell count... should have called him back by now....

He is vindicated yet again

Wow lincoln is really cucking out I'm voting for George B. McClellan

Lmaooo 😂😂

@celticflame sorry to hear that, hope all is well soon

Lol the neocons would have hated McClellan

Thanks,hopefully he will be ok @Jakob-NY

Can you imagine

@celticflame Keep us updated friend. He will be in my prayers.

Thanks,will do @DixieBoy76 - KY

The neocons would have hated Lincoln too tbh

I don’t think people realize that *everyone* used to be “racist”.

Haha I know I was just making an obscure civil war joke since he was adverse to combat

Lincoln was a proto-Identitarian

The civil war was a terrible tragedy upon this great nation

@Virgil Hot take

This evening has been chock full of hot takes lmao

Anyone watching the El Paso rally
