    Truly a disgusting display of manipulation and inability to govern somehow transformed into “freeing the slaves”

    The resulting sharecropping was often worse than slavery

    Look buddy, it’s neat you have the same takes and cadence as Everyone’s Wildly Racist Uncle. Real neat, you have a lovely one, cya!

      What in the literal fuck are you talking about. The sharecroppers were often worse off afterwards. It was a whole new type of torture.

      Sorry to burst your bubble, but white people continued fucking over the blacks to this day. The violence of the civil war didn’t solve the problem.
