It always amazes me how short US history is and the fact that we have modern documentation of some of our most historical moments. Like the video with someone that witnessed the Lincoln assassination.

Living through the late 1800s into the early 1900s must have been wild with the advancements and things.

I know some of us eventually all got cable/satellite TV, wireless phones and the Internet.

It just doesn't seem the same.

The south was on the wrong side but honestly the entire region of the country was in rebellion. In most of the states down south everyone these guys knew would have considered them a traitor if they joined the union army.

Lincoln didn't want to be too harsh and people were tired after four years of war. Since he didn't plan on getting killed, Johnson was free to be the asshole he was.

I have a tip for you - Don't judge people from the past with modern morality. Read a few books, man. Broaden you horizon and try to realize situations were more complicated than modern tellings of the events make it out to be. The rich got the poor to fight using any method they could. Often times people fighting were victims who never had access to a slave. Your take is so simplified it borders on worthless. I can suggest you a few books to read if you want a wider perspective on the subject? Night Comes to the Cumberlands is a good one that has a fairly good history of the Appalachia region.

I'm almost positive Lincoln was actually planning on being a little harsh, but the assassination ruined any chances of that. Johnson has to be a bottom 3 president for how he handled America post-war.

Lincoln was concerned with moving on as fast as possible. But it's hard to know.

You are correct, however I can't judge Confederate vets equally to Union vets.

Confederate vets are treasonous scum who betrayed the US to defend their right to own black people as slaves.
Union vets did not.

The liberal or progressive party of the past who fought for civil rights of disenfranchised groups of the past would be seen as racist in the year 2022.
