These peeps run all around Virginia.
Oh, Virginia…
(It sucks here.)
(Also, Virginia is a strong-hold of the Libertarian Party, go figure)
starting a hexbear struggle session by suggesting that John Wilkes Booth represents a successful example of adventurism
Great bit
Glug-glug-glug
Continues chugging.
Finishes.
Aaaaaaaa
Delicious, comrades.
How dare you…
not save any for the rest of us I’m fucking thirsty over here
I see you’ve produced fresh tears! More for me!
Two of Americas war have actually been just and one of those was against itself
That’s a good way of putting it.
Hell, the Republican Party was literally a third party against the political establishment.
It was basically an insurgency against America, of sorts.
It’s also entirely possible to read the motivation of the Republican party as representatives of a new industrial-urban bourgeoisie rising up against the established postcolonial plantation bourgeoisie and wanting to repatriate an increasingly restive black population once it can be replaced with the latest generations of new immigrants. At least that’s how Settlers puts it.
Edit: That’s obviously not to say they weren’t justified in abolishing slavery, or that celebrating John Wilkes Booth isn’t among the grossest, most racist, “let’s go back to the plantation” shit you can pull as a party, and i’d argue that the North acted way too mildly against the plantation owners after the war as well. Just saying that on the level of political decision makers, it may be impossible to find a non-racist side here.

And one of them they tried their best to avoid getting involved until they realized they could expand their empire by doing so

One of the better US presidents, I guess.
He was more of a centrist, though he had Marx and Engels’ support. The “Radical Republicans” were more, well, to the left of Lincoln, though Lincoln was definitely crucial to ending slavery.
He also checked over what was gonna be a huuuuge execution of like 300 indigenous people and dismissed like 250 of those iirc, so uh critical support I guess? But also I think westward expasion went unchecked under him.
True, though he did free people from bondage in California due to an executive order (I mean, Indigenous folk).
Honestly, though, he did suspend habeas corpus
It’s not about the racism it’s about the tyranny of the age of consent laws. - the libertarian party
“It’s not about the slavery it’s about the state’s rights!” - also the libertarian party
It’s amazing how “state’s rights” people can almost recognize that the USA, as a settler-colony, requires the use of violence to enforce its borders and laws, but then thinks that magically stops being true when you call it a “state government” instead of a “federal government”.
Americans don’t consider the constitution an act of government. They consider it an act of god, transcribed by American Moses
