      I love they literally explained why the south was racist and the north wasn't and he ignored it and asked his chat lol...smdh...the south was agricultural mecca while the north which has worse weather obviously was more industrial cause crops weren't growing there you didn't have really any farmland in the north lol which basically made the south need slaves to work the fields while the northerners had easier factory jobs and it was better for the economy to have backs working and being capitalists...slavery didn't make sense anymore in the north which is why it was a economy choice not really a moral one...i'm sure lincoln used it to get elected but in his heart he clearly wanted it to end too but he knew its not that simple living in racist times it would hurt him to be labeled a abolitionist so he walked the fine line very well so you couldn't call him that without lying he made it clear the south could keep their slaves not that he wanted them to but he knew the nation had to stay united even through the civil war until he just got pissed and made it about slavery and killed many for it

      "No history" is obviously an exaggeration, but given that US had close to zero involvement in global politics until 20th century (and what comes later is more present than history), it makes sense that it's earlier history would be of little importance to those outside of US, i.e. most people. That's just how it works. Similarly, people know little about deeper history of Britain, France, China, Russia, etc., unless they were raised there - why would the US be an exception?

      Slavery wasn’t the unthinkable sin we see it as today, but antebellum America was definitely behind the curve with regard to abolition. The founding fathers debated the issue almost 100 years earlier but ultimately felt it would resolve itself over time. Had it not been for the invention of the cotton gin that might have actually proven true. By the mid-19th century, slave labor was simply too valuable and greed won out over morality.

    Honestly, watching the ending makes me a tad emotional partially because of the fact that it warms my heart to think that the president who made it all happen, who fought for the freedom of so many is actually treated as an icon while the murderer is denounced. The reason I have to mention it as a heartwarming fact is because I live in a country where at the moment, the founding father of the nation is being denounced while the guy who murdered him is held up as an icon (Mahatma Gandhi being the founding father, his murderer being Nathuram Godse).

    Twitch chatter "kdub2190" said: "He [Abraham Lincoln] had no intention of ending slavery, never spoke about it until AFTER the war started." That is extremely ignorant, and a pure display of historical illiteracy. Chatters like him ruin chat overall. If you know anything of history, it is made quite clear in Lincoln's personal writings that he hated slavery and believed it to be immoral. Yet the majority of Americans, even Northerners, did not share this sentiment. The issue of slavery to most was not for ethical reasons, but merely because they believed it to be an inferior economic system. Lincoln knew that to get the support he needed, he had to make it clear that his intentions were Union first, slavery second. It was an appeal to the voter population, not a reflection of his actual beliefs. We see similar things happen today. For example, Obama stating that marriage is the bond between a man and a woman, seemingly being against gay marriage. Why? Because that was the popular sentiment at the time. Before and after the war, Lincoln hated slavery and wanted it to end. Quote from him: "I am naturally anti-slavery. If slavery is not wrong, nothing is wrong."

    It’s funny how chat thinks they understand American politics at all. Don’t they realize the parties have changed over time? This was relatively recently when it comes to history but 200 years is still enough time for major political change. What am I even thinking, over half of chat is probably under age anyways, I don’t know what I was expecting.
    Edit: Idk why but at the part of the video where it talked about Lincoln being fed up with McClellans inaction and taking things into his own hands, I saw someone in chat use the quote “Fine, I’ll do it myself” and it just made me laugh out loud. Chat is uneducated as hell but I’ll admit their reactions can be really funny at times, and props to them for (mostly) acting appropriately to Willie and Lincoln’s deaths.

    No, laws do not define people.
    Laws are made, changed for people... the laws are influenced by people. So, to answer the question... what made them different was that the profit or the wealth or greater survival of that part relied on slavery, while the other did not need to rely on such. Thus, if both parts relied on slavery & had no alternative way... no civil war or if both did not need to rely on slavery, no civil war.

      @@-scrim Imagine hating America for slavery, not to mention the fact that slavery still goes on all around the globe and goes unchecked, and instead we're arguing about phony white privilege and discrimination of blacks, the simple fact is those people who survived that horrific world war 2 event had no problem making their way to the top in a generation in the country they were terrorized in. This notion of equality among races is just nonsensical justification for anti white propaganda. It's okay to make fun of whites, you even get praised for it now, but SWITCHING the words white and black in sentences can have a significantly different reaction from people. The media has told us whites are different, whites are okay to be made fun of, whites are different, whites are different. It's social engineering to the highest degree, and the people in our society have been hardwired to think that whites are "privileged," blacks are "underrepresented," "diversity is our strength." The truth is already here with South Africa and the white (word that rhymes with henocide) that's going on there. Whites have been nice to blacks in modern America and Europe, but the same can't be said for the reverse in South Africa. It's time that we need to ask some tough questions as a nation. Is diversity really making us stronger? Are white people really the enemy? Who overrepresents the media, government, and Hollywood in America? What is deemed by the public okay and not okay to talk about and why? What is the ultimate goal of the anti white and Christian rhetoric? You need to seriously find your own answers to these questions and then come to what you see as a sensible resolution.

The North being temperate and perfect for factories as there is colder weather which before air conditioning, this was the only way for factory workers to not die from heat exhaustion. In the south with the subtropical climate which is perfect for growing cash crops such as tobacco, cotton, and sugar cane meaning that the two's industries are completely different. Although only the top 1% of southerners owned slaves, southerners believed that this war was a war against the southern traditions and culture of farming.
