This is the left's line on the Civil War, and why southerners fought. It is pure bullshit mixed with ignorance. 90% of southerners fought for ONE REASON >> because they found themselves under attack.Confederacy fought to maintain slavery and because they hated the USA.
As ignorant Tom Paine shows he knows nothing about the 19th century southerner, maybe I need to ask him again >> "What would you do with these blue suited guys shooting at YOU, blowing up your houses, and burning down your churches ? Offer them lollipops ?"
And I guess I need to repeat another earlier post too >> Most of what was fought by southerners in the Civil War has absolutely nothing to do with race. Many southerners in southern mountain states (VA, NC, SC, TN, GA, AL, AK), where slavery did not exist. They were many miles from slave-worked plantations, on the coastal plains of the South. They had no TV, radio, computers or much of any communication, and may have not even known that black people existed, let alone about slavery. You're not well informed, Tom Paine. Hope you're learning now.
You little conception of the Civil War is nothing but a tool painting, painted by liberals who want to hang a label of racist on every conservative, and/or anyone wearing a confederate flag hat, jacket etc. Some of these liberals are pushing an agenda. Other are duped suckers who eat up the propaganda.
Meanwhile, the real racists in 2020, are those supporting race-based Affirmative Action malicious, racial discrimination against whites. Here is the flag of RACISM >>

The South fought to defend the Confederacy
A nation formed to preserve slavery in their new nation forever.
This nation had 40 percent of its population in slavery. The Confederacy was built out of HATRED of the USA.
Why would any loyal American defend it?
