they have the entire population believing that the Civil War was all about the crusade to end slavery

nothing at all about the economic oppression of the south

even most freepers think Lincoln was a national hero. The feds even built a big monument to worship that constitution wrecking tyrant, Lincoln unconstitutionally waged war that murdered 100's of thousands of his own people who dared resist the federal tyranny by legal means.

Yet my interpretation of those events makes me a racist to most of the brainwashed population

The thing that torques me off most about the Civil War is the way that Andersenville is presented.

Certainly Andersenville was bad, but the South had no way they could properly care for prisoners. While in prisons like Point Lookout the southern prisoners were treated as badly or worse and guarded by blacks who couldn’t wait to take a shot at them for sport. The north had the wherewithal to properly treat prisners and treated them badly just for the hell of it in 5 POW camps that were hellholes.But all we ever hear about is Andersenville.

We never hear about the deaths from disease and overcrowding and just plain meannesss at Confederate POW camps. The Victors hold the War crimes, and Confederate POW camps were war crimes.

Tell the people who think Lincoln was so great that he was right, but was killed before he could complete his plan to return them all to Africa.
