Claiming Lincoln was coming for their slaves isn’t that different than modern ones saying Biden is coming for their guns
Slavery was the hot topic of the election, and despite Lincoln repeatedly saying he wouldn’t outlaw slavery, the South kept saying it and eventually started a civil war over.
Like, the modern parallel is almost too on the nose. They’re treating the border and migrants the same way
So it’s important for people to understand what happened since we’re facing the same shit.
Yes, the north did not go to war over slavery, but the south sure did.
