yeah
fun fact, slavery existed almost everywhere in the world in the 1800s
price beats morals
Probably because they wete currently being fucking invaded
slavery wrecked the south economy
i do thanks to the greatest history teacher of all time
really?
probably because you didn't jump at the industrialization
wait i replied to the wrong messege
whoops
Industrialization sucks anyways
Return to monke
China agrees
Spoken like a true southerner
Yes
Oh is that because you lost?
No that's because it sucks
dude lets just stop arguing over the confederates
Industrialization is great for many things, but also leads to lack of self sufficiency
Nuh uh
industrialization has improved the lives of millions
yes, don't disagree
If the colonies lost the revolutionary war that wouldnt have made them wrong
Southerners always be looking to rationalize the Confederacy's actions
I mean, yeah kind of
History is written by the victor
yes
We weren't fighting to protect an immoral trade
Which is why i love playing devils advocate<:KEK:726877368601411624>
you think the average person in the south was fighting for slavery lol? you're sadly mistaken..
thousands of letters beg to differ
the south was fighting to protect states rights
not slavery
Cleet the sharecropper who sold his farm to buy a rifle was toally fighting for that rich dude over there to keep bossing people around
Specifically the states right to slavery
I know, however it was also regarded as "A Rich Man's War" (think the Nickajack and West Tennessee rebellions)
funny how that works out
I also like how not a single civil war era song mentions slavery like at all
their right to legalize slavery
exactly, only the rich in the south could afford to own slaves.. many of the average southerns resented slavery because it took all of the employment they had available
