I can very easily see modern maga defending slavery, if they were back in the day. Abolitionism was the progressive idea. People would be all “I’m not gonna pay more taxes just because these deranged lefties want to take peoples OWN PROPERTY from them” 😭

“I believe in the states rights to choose whether or not slavery should stay” “these radical leftists think owning people should be illegal, well the LAW SAYS SLAVES ARENT PEOPLE-“ god I could go on, nothing is holding these people back but the Overton window and what issues are currently a concern

I can totally hear people going “have you seen what their country looks like, we’re practically doing them a favor!” Or some shit like that.

I could see modern day liberals putting in a gender neutral bathroom into the plantation before lifting a finger on anything actually relevant

Honestly modern day liberals would be like “I suppose as long as they’re NICE to the slaves and they’re happy,,, I just don’t think this is really worth starting a WAR over,,,”

Fun fact: the liberal perspective at the time was basically putting all the slaves back in Africa and compensating owners lol, this was the stance of people like Henry Clay and (briefly) Lincoln. It definitely was a terrible idea. But the more left groups were pro- complete abolition
