09/15/22 TRUTH IS OBJECTIVE, NOT SUBJECTIVE
Evil is evil, whether you are black or white, blue or red, Southerner or Northerner, Christian or infidel. Be careful of "bait and switch tactics" and "doublespeak." Speaking out against State overreach is is not insurrection, is not an attempted overthrow of the Government.
Yes, there was a wicked slavery system that the USA (North and South) bought into, over one hundred and sixty years ago, but the facts have been twisted until even the so-called academics have been led astray.
Americans who believe in the foundation stones of our country are being accused of trying to OVERTHROW our Government. When States or individuals choose to live by the Constitution, while the Federal Government is attacking our freedoms, they are falsely identified as enemies of our country.
Whatever other points a person may argue about the War Between the States, it was not a war of Southern aggression or an attempt to overthrow the USA. Every state had the right to secede. If the South left the Union, as provided by the US Constitution, it would have been a major blow to Northern economy, but it was not an attempted overthrow of the USA. In fact, the one time that the Confederacy did move into the North, during the war, it chose to turn back, because it was not an attempt to overthrow the North.
I am not excusing the sins of the South or the North. I am pointing out that those who stand for freedom today are being called insurrectionists, terrorists, enemies and threats to the USA. It is a lie. Some folks will give up on freedom because they don't want to be FALSELY called names (R....t, Fascist, Insurrectionist, Deplorable, White Supremacist, Colonialist).
We watched as the oppressors demeaned and destroyed entire regions and periods of American history. Now the same deceptive tactics are being used to usher in a new Civil War, by attacking personal and State rights in this country.
I realize that there was evil in our country in the 1800s and I realize there is evil in our society today. However, do not believe the incendiary propaganda. It will turn people against the good things in our country, it will turn people against other people in our country, it will turn some people in our country against the Christian faith.
Remember (if you actually know history), the War Between the States was not initially about freeing the slaves. Freeing the slaves was the best byproduct of the war. But now there are people using "Virtue Signalling" to rob you of your freedom and your rights.
My original premise (evil is evil) gets lost when half truths are believed and outright lies are propagated.
