I have been trying to gain a really good grasp on the Southers point of view as to the causes of the so called "Civil War". One book that I have found to be most helpful so far as now, has been "The causes of the Civil war" Edited by Kenneth M. Stammpp.
He also has a Second 'Newly Revised Edition" which has helped.
Both point directly to show that the south had 1/2 of the puzzle correct, That in and of itself being States Rights, and the other half WRONG in Slavery.
BUT, the other half was INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS and Federaism. again, running a HALF Right Mindset.
As everyone should know, I am of the clearest and strongest opinion, that, States Rights are superior to any form of Federalism aor Federal Rights. Thence, Individual Rights are Superior to any form of Slavery, excluding Knowingly Indentured Servitude, and, that form where one must pay his/her dues for crimes and or sins to our fellows.
In reading the U.S. Constitution, all Men and Women are born as State Citizens. None are, were actually, ever Federal. All inherently are Free, which is where the Southers were mislead by the likes of Calhoun and Pike and some less mentioned others. They never took the view of "All Men are Born Equal", as in ALL as in everyone without reference to anything such as Skin Color, Sex, or whatever, and in that light they were tricked into becomming Traitors to the Republics. By Republics I mean the True Nations that came together and are still together actively creating the Union known as the United States of America.
One could dig deeper and find many more crimes against Men, God, and Mankind. But what would be the use?
The lowest common denominator I have been able to come up with is whetether we will push One Union of Countrys, Independent of Monarchist Rulers, with a mutiplicity of Free Peoples, INDIVIDUALS one and all,each and all, Indepedenent of any Rulers, with and for, Individual Self Government, as Individuals and as a Group, to Preseve the Rights and Freedoms and Liberties of the Individual, so we may all create a better world and possible life not only for ourselves, but for all, by pretecting everyones Right to be Independent?
Or will keep folding to the Dependency on a Federal Claim of OWNERSHIP on all of us, which seen in its true light, is the most heinous form of SLAVERY much worse than that which the Slaves had in the 1800s?
Your choice Americans, your choice.
Just remember, none may be free as long as one of us is still a Dependent Slave to the Federation.
True, and it seems we are on the verge of reliving it again, although in a slightly different manner, but pretty much with the same characteristics....
I have no idea where this was going but that's the point in your whatever where I stopped reading.
I am considered to be the "King of the Convoluted" but this makes me appear facile in comparison...howls....
You get all the head pats.
Doggy grin....
Well, CONGRATULATIONS....
You missed out on the very best part of the written words.....
Kudos to you.....
"Be proud you're a Rebel. cause the South gonna do it again"....
It might just take us Southers to regain the Freedoms we were promised in the Articles of Confederation.....
I can run with that....
Here's my stance on the Confederacy versus the Union:
I'm still working on it, but it's what the history books won't tell you.
Get ready for a history lesson...
The Union primarily consisted of checkered isles and peninsulas, with many bays, and many avenues for world commerce.
Many factories opened up there, with plenty access to running water for steam engines and water wheels.
With the explosion of the textile, sugar, tobacco, and produce, the South was perfectly tailored for agriculture.
So, we had a system where the North ruled industry, and the South ruled resources.
The North got wealthy on account of being on the global profit end of the supply chain.
The South, naturally, wanted to have industry on its own.
The North began to suppress the South's attempts at industry. Assassinations, banking schemes, and fraud as the usual tools.
Why?
Because the South had Slaves and the North didn't. The South had resources, and the North didn't. If the South achieved slaves, resources, and industry they would rule the nation, if not the world, hands down.
Cheap labor, access to resources, and new technology allowing for stream-lined shipping methods through trains and steam-ships.
So, after a long train of abuses by the North, the South got pissed and began to draft ways to split away and follow its own laws.
But that's only what was happening on the surface.
Enter Lincoln.
Lincoln knew a nation divided will inevitably fall. Specifically, he knew that the entire conflict was conflated by international banking schemes that ran the industry of the North and were intentionally putting pressure on the South in order to get the South to rebel.
They also would then have owned all the industry that the fledgling South planned on setting up, due to the debts created to run the war and foot the bill of factories.
It was a rigged game from the start.
Keep in mind, the majority of people saw Slavery as a way of life and essential to competing on the world stage. In fact, if not for the US Textile industry, most of the world would have been naked. No one even thought for a second that the world could run without slaves.
So, Lincoln spotted an opportunity to stop them from playing their game.
He entered into their scheme, feigned being an Illinois made-man (Illinois was always corrupt) and rose to the top.
When he saw an opportunity, he lunged for the White House and rode on the creation of the Republican ticket (a brand new party) that targeted the popular sentiments in the North. Up until then, the Democrat party was the oldest and largest party, due in part to the opposition being stuck bouncing between many smaller parties.
Lincoln took an economic war and sought to reframe it as a war ON Slavery, rather than a war OVER Slavery.
Well, shit, the international banking weren't expecting that. They need slavery if the South was gonna make it. The time table they were working on was shortened, and they had to act fast.
Lincoln dropped the veil on the real problem in the world, indentured servitude to a caste of elite cronies, and attempted to expose exactly what was going on -- that the banking elites were simultaneously destroying the US while making a new, perfect "Zionist" slave nation that controlled the world's textile, produce, tobacco, and now industry.
The only notch left was industry, and the global elite had already bankrolled the Democrat party to cause as much division as possible as a pretense to crush the North.
Lincoln was the only one saying we had to stay together.
They framed him as a bleeding-heart slave lover, but that actually helped his cause. He used that as fuel to pretense the Civil War as one about the Rights of Man rather than the Rights of Business.
In effect, he used all their momentum against them and they got really, really pissed.
As a result, they made sure to make it the bloodiest war they possibly could. They knew they had lost, but they needed to punish the U.S. and especially Lincoln for spoiling their efforts.
If they couldn't claim the U.S., they would destroy it.
Lincoln fought well, however, and eventually got the support he needed using blackmail on the Democrats and lousy Republican fence-sitters(RINOs).
His hands weren't the cleanest by the end of it all...
Grant was a traitor, though, and when push came to shove he sold Lincoln out.
War ended, Lincoln assassinated, Grant takes over, US declares bankruptcy, and we can all speculate from there when it come to USA Corp.
Civil Rights comes along and Kennedy tries to do the same thing.
He dies, but not before making serious strides in Civil Rights.
The Democrats had to re-brand. They knew they couldn't sell slavery and figured that was one of the many reasons Lincoln thwarted them once before. They spend the next two decades to frame the Republican party as the party of racists, helped by many RINOs.
Reagan comes along and tries to take off where Kennedy left off.
Gets shot, but discovers that advances in technology have made this a FAR bigger game than can be solved in a single generation. The bad guys had too much control, and to do what is necessary to defeat them would result in the host dying along with the parasite. The best he could do was to take out their "South" which was the Soviet Union.
H.W. Takes control, and the NWO seems guaranteed. China now bears the crest of the "South," only this time they will own the industry. The South lost before because it didn't have the ability to make war supplies. They think it will be different this time.
Trump comes along and, holy shit, he's pulling a Lincoln.
That's why Trump compares himself to Lincoln, because he is.
Except now he's having to play on a reversed battlefield as compared to Lincoln. Now, Republicans are the racists. Now, Republicans are the top 1% elite. Now, Republicans are against voting rights. Now, Republicans are against science (industry).
He is playing the same game Lincoln did, but without all of Lincoln's cards.
Despite that, Trump still played the game. He is lifting the veil on the greatest, most widespread sin of Man.
Slavery.
This time, failure is not an option. Unlike Reagan, we have mastered their new technologies and are using it against them.
Digital Battlefield. Information War.
And in them, the most powerful tool ever held by the hands of Man.
The one thing they cannot understand.
Memes.
Yup.
Memes are Truth distilled into a universal language.
Memes that fail do so because they do not bear the Truth.
We have the Truth on our side now, and we cannot fail when we act on behalf of the Way the Truth and the Life.
I hope you don't mind if I post this again. I feel like it grew bigger than just a comment.
People also don't use the word Presider, but will use Resident....
I speak correctly, it's just different....
Yeah.... I don't think so....
The purpose of the Civil Wars to bankrupt and weaken the US so it could be fully conquered by the deep state. It really is that simple.
I agree.....
