That's a lot of words unfortunately the declaration of independence of all the states who seceded clearly mention the fact it's about maintaining slavery.

You should give them a read, some are pretty long and contain the word slavery over 50 times.

Tldr:

Believing the separatists during the civil war makes as much sense as believing trump for what happened 1/6.

Documents from Confederate leaders saying it was to protect slavery means as much to me as transcripts of Rudy Ghoulani’s texts messages.

Listen to Lincoln.

The best part about when this comes up, I block a whole lot of people I'd be wasting time on trying to explain basic shit. Who knows how much time if waste trying to explain things to you you'd never read

Separatists: '"It's about slavery. Yes, slavery. And some other minor things but mostly about the right to own negroes. Literally this is why we are going to war. We mention it about 400 times in our going to war documents."

You: 'well yes but actually no, don't listen to these guys they're wrong.'
