We have been effectively divided by the billionaires, oligarchy, and foreign autocrats

This was many, many moons ago, but I still vividly remember learning that the vast majority of people who fought in the confederate army didn't own slaves.

It might be a bit of a silly point, but somehow it seems even worse to go to war for other people's slaves.
