The Dixiecrats (formally the States' Rights Democratic Party) were founded on July 17, 1948
"I will say that I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races, that I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of making voters or jurors of Negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white people; and I will say in addition to this that there is a physical difference between the white and black races which I believe will forever forbid the two races from living together on terms of social and political equality. And inasmuch as they can not so live, while they do remain together there must be the position of superior and inferior, and I as much as any other man am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white race."Lincoln freed the slaves.
To put that into historical perspective, in the whole 5,000 or so years of known history of the planet, only a handful of governments had ever done that before, and in some instances it was very short-lived.
Think of all the countries and kingdoms and empires of the previous 5,000 years, on all the various continents... Lincoln towers over all of their leaders, in terms of decency.
Lincoln died in 1865, back when it was normal, so he quite progressive-minded for his time. And by progressive I don't mean that he was like the small-minded cultist douchebags with blue hair who recently latched onto that word.
By contrast, Dem-Prez LBJ was president 100 years after Lincoln died, and he was an n-word enthusiast.
