Yep the civil war was 100% about slavery.
Are you guys aware of a thing called Caliexit?
It is a push for California to succeed from the United States,they have gained the 585 + thousand votes to bring it to the referendum in 2018.
They were supported by Russia in the start and had thier own little embassy in Russia.Interesting how a state that was pushing for investigation into Russian involvement was actually involved with the Russians funding thier succession.
They dropped the Russian support after President Trump was elected because they figured it was bad publicity for thier cause.
Considering they had 3 million votes in the last election they could probably win an exit.
The funny thing is when you read the reasons for the succession it exactly mirrors the same reasons the south called for succession.
In this day and age the argument from those who really have little clue about the civil war and think all it had to do was with slaves,California has an equivalent.
Illeage immigration,they have 1/4 of the countries illeagle immigrants,granted not slaves but barley paid,living in shacks with little chance to get ahead. Life of servitude.
If California approves a Cali-Exit would you consider them also traitors?

I kinda like the Canadian outlook, well we had slaves but we let them go so we are the pinnacle of society,if you were you would have never owned/ traded slaves in the first place.
No different then the north,it was okay to own slaves until we decided it is not and that makes us the good guys.The north was manufacturing and industrial,what did they need slaves for?
