    I’m sorry. I see you’re point. She should be saying “secede because the federal government won’t enforce slavery.” Very different, and the picture above is totally wrong.

      No worries, I could have been clearer and more direct, and there are enough people who want to defend the Confederacy on the internet that it’s a reflexive action to argue with anyone who seems to be pushing “alternative history.” So I can’t really blame you for questioning me. Stay vigilant, bigots don’t fight fair.

          I get that. This is a subject where typically, anyone trying to discuss the “nuance” is really just an apologist trying to veil their bigotry.
