Slavery was abolished because the farm equipment became cheaper and more productive than knee-grows. Think about it, emancipation proclamation is signed one year after the patent expires on a type of cotton gin that can process short and long fibers, allowing mass production of cotton gins. One year later they "freed" the niggers.
that’s a great hypothesis, but lincoln was massacring northerners against conscription, and knew a slave revolt in the south (which exponentially had more slaves) would turn the tide
it would make more sense in a time of peace, for sure
slavery abolishment was a desperate move by lincoln to keep the US unified, and allow chaos in the South
lincoln also had many northerners murdered for refusing conscription
Slavery abolishment was an economic decision by the jew owners.
Slavery abolition was a purported excuse for the civil war to get a bunch of swj christians on board. Karen types who felt slavery was sinful and degenerate. Which it basically is. But it was basically an economic war as wars usually are.
And slavery was no favor to poor white laborers who could have done the same job for pay.
The planters and slavers and mercantilists were basically the old timey version of globalists, moving africans, indians in to european colonies, moving chinks and muslims in to other peoples countries as well, just to drive down the price of labor. What they are doing today.
