I find it hilarious that liberals will hold politicians like Hitler in such low regard, when the US has had a long history of presidents that could be argued as either worse or on the same level of bad when compared to Hitler. Lincoln didn’t want to free the slaves, the popular current of his party at the time was to regulate them. Abolitionism became the popular current when material conditions became unignorable. Lincoln directly acted towards the genocide of natives. Lincoln’s not a “hero”.
