I find these responses to be dissatisfying because there were people from this time who had views quite similar to most of you, yet Lincoln gets a pass for something that's just a constant in American history.

If some of these racist users on this dying videogame message board freed a race of people from bondage then they'd get a pass too.


Yup.

There really aren't very many white people in this country that would support a public leader who quite literally gave a speech about how whites and blacks aren't equal


No, but when the speech uses dog whistles as opposed to literal statements, a startling amount of people absorb it.
