I often get in arguments with fags who always talk shit about confederate soldiers calling them traitors and pushing for all confederate monuments to be torn down. They justify this with the tired old argument of "but the confederates fought to keep muh precious niggers enslaved, therefore they deserve to be mocked and reviled because slavery bad." I had heard before that the civil war was over state's rights to determine their own destiny instead of being beholden to the federal government in D.C. and that slavery was the least of the cause. What are good counter arguments to these nigger loving confederacy haters ? Any educational links would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I have an American history book from 1880 and it is fascinating. One interesting topic was that the jews funding the railroads pre civil war very intentionally made the lines run east/west not north/south, to maintain the cultural divide that existed between north and south.

The cultural divide was probably just a side benefit. There wasn't enough of an industrial base to justify north/south rail lines especially with the Mississippi river right there.
