“I’m sure the NYT 1619 project has also highlighted that little Civi War wherein the United States rejected slavery.”

There is nothing about the New York Times - or New York - that I can think of to recommend. They are up to mischief always.

That said, I'm not sure that Lincoln was “fighting to free the slaves.” If there is information to support the claim that he was, I'd like to read it.
