Lincoln tricked racist northerners into dying in a war against the most heinous form of slavery the world has ever seen, and he still doesn’t pass your purity test. Fucking wild.
Lincoln tricked racist northerners into dying in a war against the most heinous form of slavery the world has ever seen
… to save a slave nation built on white supremacy and settler colonialism, which still enslaves Black people within its borders thanks to the 13th Amendment passed during his administration, because the slave nation was so fucking vile and unstable that even white supremacists had to fight against chattel slavery to keep their settler colonial empire from detonating itself.
Like this is literally how deep racism goes, that even the “white moderates” are all racist bastards. This is what happens when one makes white supremacy the foundation of an entire society: to the surprise of no one but you and every other settler apparently, you end up with a nation of white supremacists. Rejecting in all its hideous permutations (applies to too) is step zero in any serious solution for ending white supremacy. Otherwise, it’s a continuation of white supremacy under different management.
and he still doesn’t pass your purity test.
Yeah actually, the only purity test an President can ever pass is that he purely deserves to burn in Hell.
Yeah it’s pretty deranged that he chose to do that, and it’s pretty deranged that you pretend like
hasn’t always been a slave nation.
