We do. Confederate documents are riddled with explicit mission statements of upholding slavery and white supremacism.

Keep reading, the truth has been altered for political gain, you need books dating back to when the war started, there are old news papers still to be found. The hard truth is that the Confederacy never gave gave up being Americans. The war by law was illegal but the all knowing, all powerful central government didn't care.

In reality the Confederacy was inline with the writing of the Constitution. If you read the document you would understand that Lincoln abused his power and stated a unauthorized war.
Put your feelings aside and read. 

The Ninth Amendment stated, “The enumeration in the Constitution of certain rights shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people,” and the Tenth Amendment says, “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.” These two amendments assured the states of continued autonomy in handling most of their internal affairs.

The war was never about slavery but it played its part but even if that was the only cause the war should have never happened. Look at it like this, if any state wanted to make all drugs legal, the people voted and it passed and in response congress declared war some of the other states would join together and fight. Just to be called traitors 160 years later by people to lazy or unable to follow the cause and effects.

No no - like, Confederate states wrote "hey, we're seceding from the Union today so that we can keep slavery because white men are at the top of the natural order". No books, no newspapers, this is like the Confederate government's self-documentation as it happened. And you're full of shit.

Nice, I try to educate you that there were many reasons, show you what the actual law says and you go into spoiled child mode. We are done, I will not waste my time on a spoiled brat. Believe the lies, grow up and be a part of the problem, you deserve it.

You didn't try to educate me, you gave me the same spiel about the Confederacy that apologists always give, and it ALWAYS ALWAYS ignores the fact that the Confederate government was explicitly white supremacist. You were trying to engage me in bullshit - that's not education

Nothing like trying to claim confederates weren't racist by posting a picture of a black slave being forced to carry the confederate battle flag so his master can continue to own him like a piece of equipment

Lol, you really think white men armed 65,000 slaves, stood beside them and not one ever took the weapon and tried to escape. You have taken ignorance to a new level, so high in fact that I doubt anyone in this century will get within eyesight. Keep climbing.

Nope that's not what happened in history at all. Black slaves, who were often brought along by their masters, severed in support rolls primarily cooking, digging latrines, assisting in medical tents or other daily cleaning duties, and were expressly forbidden from even touching weapons under pain of torture and death, which was done routinely to keep them fearful and in submissive. Despite that many did runaway, so many in fact it was one of the reasons the north decided to start conscripting black military units because they didn't know what to do with all of them.

I didn't read past the word nope, your ignorance of US history is on you. I do not buy into the attempts to rewrite history for political gain. Instead of lying to me all the time why don't you do something useful with your time, like thanking Police officers for serving in democrat controlled slums or writing the UN to demand that Islamic countries stop dealing in black slaves. Oh yeah, you don't care about real issues, you still think the klan is a thing.

Of course I'm not surprised you didn't read past nope, like you admitted before, your too afraid to read or look into anything will prove your beliefs wrong. But still, I don't believe you're a lost cause, as long as a person is alive they can learn to think for themselves and begin to grow as a human being. You never know what will spark that first moment of insight and make a person start questioning everything they thought they knew and finally realize their mistakes don't define them, it's what they do to correct them that counts.

There's that projection again. Do not let your shadow consume you, embrace your faults and they can finally let go of your self hatred.

Lol, if I didn't care about fools and children, I would not talk to you. I have never bothered to check to see if you make memes because I know that if you do they would be a meaningless as the rants you post here. Your fixation with the memes that I make tells me that I am a threat to your leftist agenda. I am ok with that and hope you keep visiting, you are funnier than watching biden try to remember what office he is running for.

And that's the difference between you and I, I do care. At least you have begone to admit your faults, the next step is to accept them.

More lies, you are stuck on poor pity party, poor blacks, whites have privilege, the owe me for slavery (boring). Here is the truth, shut up, man up and earn your way, just like the rest of us did, no one owes you anything.

That's the issue now isn't it, you just want people to duck their heads down and be quite like good little doggies so you don't have to pretend to care about it anymore and go one back to your daily life of ignoring the rest of the world so long as you "get what's yours". Except, this time the doggies have been kicked one too many times and are refusing to back down this time.
