re: #50 Caton

More like “the war of Southern stupidity”.

No, they were actually way too stupid to understand they should change their way of life and abolish slavery.

Talking to idiots wastes your time and annoys the idiots. So nobody told ‘em.

In other words, the southern states should have abolished slavery during the 1850s.

OK I’m glad you put the onus on the Confederacy. Regardless of that we can’t change history. They should have abolished slavery but they did not and the rest is, as they say, history.
