It's an hour long take down/rant that does a good job of painting him as America's first dictator. If you have some time to spare I'd recommend a watch. Razorfist is very engaging/charismatic.

Is that a thing?

If so, what’s the story on it? Is it how he treated the constitution?

Lincoln is the single most greatest being to ever occupy office in history except for some of Israel's kings.

I don't hate Lincoln, however he along with Wilson and FDR damaged the country and put it on a shitty trajectory.

Nothing to do with the war, it has a lot to do with his public crackdowns though.

I like presidents who can use diplomacy vs having to have 500k Americans kill each other.

He did that shite without congressional approval. Hell he had the Maryland legislature arrested before they could vote to secede.

What he did is no different than Biden claiming he had emergency powers to make you take a vaccine.

Dictator? Probably not.

Tyrant? Absolutely.

Let's not pretend that he announced Emancipation as anything other than a political gamble. Lincoln was just fine with keeping slavery intact but contained within the nation when he first took office. That, of course, was unpalatable to the planter class, and we know the results.

Anyone viewing Lincoln as some sort of humanist beacon is fooling themselves.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
