So the Southern Democrats were justified, and the Republicans, including Lincoln, were the tyrannical ones?
Uh... I think you’re gonna have a hard time selling that one. I do agree that the civil war was much more nuanced than we’re taught in school, no side was truly good or evil, but let’s not start some revisionist history here by claiming the Democrats were the good guys.
Apparently if you look into it, Lincoln did do some pretty crazy shit with the justification that he was keeping the country united. He made full use of his war time powers and from what I understand even jailed the heads of newspaper outlets that weren't writing pro-Union propaganda.
When democrats say the parties switched, they were right. And yes, the KKK Democrats actually do have far more in common with you then you realize. Tough sell here, I know. Here's my basic summary of one perspective on it.
