None of what you’ve said matters. He freed more than 3million Americans. It’s the single greatest thing any American has ever done. It just doesn’t matter that some ideas and opinions he had would be seen as inappropriate today.

The ironic thing is that Lincoln was actually much softer than the rest of the GOP (at the time) when it came to reconstruction. They wanted land confiscation and partitioning. Lincoln only wanted 10% of the state leaders in each csa state to pledge loyalty, and then the state could be readmitted.
