Can't tell if ur being ironic

> Confederate flags nowadays just signify southern pride
@SomeSouthernGuy oh but do they

Ngl I kinda see his point

I mean it’s a confederate flag it’s kinda sus you know what I mean

Freedom of Expression y'all lol

Listen here i will straight up type a novel rn on why the confederacy didnt fight mainly fight for slavery

<:angrypelosi:723010351150661655>

Yeah I know my history but they fought for slavery

Says who

The history books...

One of the things they fought for was slavery

Written by the winners of the war

So which side would you have been on

The southern economy was dependent on slaves

Of course they'd try and paint their enemies as terrible as possible

> Listen here i will straight up type a novel rn on why the confederacy didnt fight mainly fight for slavery
@Mcgoober ah yes,i smell cap

The northern economy was dependent on the same thing with a different name

And the losers would try to make themselvs like the victim

No it really wasn’t Goober

And the union literally had slave states <:KEK:726877368601411624>

> The southern economy was dependent on slaves
@Superkana2006 wouldn't you really say cotton and like, slaves were the mechanism of acquiring it until the cotton gin?

The north traded with Europe so they didnt have to make everything themselves

> And the union literally had slave states <:KEK:726877368601411624>
@Mcgoober not all and they fought to end it

And lincoln literally said he'd win the war without freeing the slaves if he could<:KEK:726877368601411624>

And there were literally black rebel regiments <:KEK:726877368601411624> <:KEK:726877368601411624> <:KEK:726877368601411624>

No he was trying not to get everyone pissed all at once

> wouldn't you really say cotton and like, slaves were the mechanism of acquiring it until the cotton gin?
The slaves still picked the cotton, the cotton gin just sifted out the seeds

Gotcha

And he thought the war would be over in weeks but only issued the emancipation proclamation 3 years into it

@Mcgoober because their slaves and don't have a choice.

They were freedmen brigades

Theyre*

> They were freedmen brigades
@Mcgoober so which side would you have wanted to fight on

And less than 1% of the south actually owned slaves and they weren't even the ones that fought

Wait,Tucker is running in 2024??? HHAHAHA

Really?

Bruh dixie all the way

Sargon is live rn,he’s saying so

Shouldn't this be in history?

> Bruh dixie all the way
@Mcgoober but why they fought to keep slaves

Y’all,anyone can run,y’all should do it
