If the Civil War was actually about slavery, the Union wouldn't have raped and murdered countless slaves, and the countless civilians who didn't even own slaves. You can't say that slavery wasn't an issue at the time, but it wasn't the sole cause of the war.

Grant was a colonizer: he colonized the South. That obviously ain't what the explicitly anti-Southern Antifa meant, but their entire existence is ironic: an organization founded to fight Fascism adopts Fascist policies, such as censorship and killing political enemies.

States are within their constitutional right to secede, if alabama or alaska decide to secede tomorrow they'll be invaded immediately (if they even get to secede in the first place before the media bashing them into submission).

But if California or New York seceded, it wouldn't be a big deal and the media would shame the states that stayed.

The left is right that the US is an empire, but they're the real imperialists; the federal government has been violating the rights of the states and the people for centuries.
