Whining about States rights to enslave people is certainly a take.

Particularly when in context, the war was caused by the South acting to usurp abolition in the North via the legal system (i.e. Dredd Scott https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dred_Scott)

The importance and applicability of "states rights" is always oddly narrow.

		`The importance and applicability of "states rights" is always oddly narrow.` It's also always ignoring the declarations of secession that all explicitly name slavery as the motivation.
