You seem to want to push this narrative that leaving slavery alone would have led to a natural conclusion.

Man, I said numerous times, including in that very fucking comment, that leaving slavery alone in the South would not have necessarily killed it. I outlined why moderate abolitionists believed that it would, and why it's not an inherently absurd idea. Fuck's sake.

It is absolutely an absurd idea, and any modern "abolitionists" who say otherwise are pushing an agenda. Do you watch conspiracy videos?

Okay. Europe and the Northern states don't exist. Got it.
