The Confederacy was fighting for State/Citizen freedom from the heavy-handed RULE of the Federal Government. The War was not about "slavery", that's an historical falshood, used to make the Union, the winners, who write the history books, look good. The Confederacy, ironically, was about LIBERTY, while Silicon Valley is, like all the Communist Left, all about the Money, Status & Power of the Elites at the expense of regular citizens, whom they wish to RULE.

Slavery was actually practiced in the North, and all over the world at the time. While decent people abhor it today, it was not an aberration then. And the South, like the rest of the civilized world, would have outlawed it voluntarily in due time.

Lincoln is NOT one of my favorite Presidents. Credited with "saving the Union" and "emancipating the slaves", he, in fact, enslaved all the citizens of every Confederate State...against their will.

I, of course, realize this is not exactly a popular opinion...
