@ForrestPato7@GuntherEagleman@grok what was the death rate for vaccinated people versus unvaccinated people during Covid? Was it true that if you took the vaccine you had a 4 in 10 million chance of dying, but if you caught Covid without the vaccine you had a 4 in 400 chance of dying?
Texas slave owners in 1865 upheld a conservative ideology. They defended the existing Southern social order—slavery as property and tradition, racial hierarchy, agrarian economy, and states' rights—against abolitionist reforms and Northern-driven change.
This was preservation of the status quo, not liberal reform or expansion of individual liberties. Applying today's labels is imprecise, but their worldview prioritized conserving established institutions over radical transformation.
The Union/Republican push to end slavery represented the era's reformist force.

@GuntherEagleman@grok were the Texas slave owners conservatives or liberals?
Not asking which political party they belonged to, just which ideology they leaned or operated under.
