This is what happened because of pure racial hate. Thankfully white progressives fought back or it would have been worse. Today they are called left wing or Democrats.

Wow. You're actually attempting to link reconstruction era repression to modern day Republicans? Even for someone known for race baiting that's pretty pathetic.

Here, try this:

This is what happened because of pure big government control. Thankfully, Reagan and other conservatives fought back in the cold war or it would have been worse. Today these supporters of universal healthcare and other government control are called left wing or Democrats.

The OP ignores the fact that the South remained downtrodden and poor due to the profiteers of the North, many of whom did not choose to voluntarily give up their slaves until Lincoln's Emancipation Proclaimation.

Yes, Progressivism did much to harm the South, as did slavery, as did Lincoln damage the US Constitution by usurping powers not granted the Executive Branch.

Of course the OP obviously did not learn history, only revisionism.
