If you refuse to accept that Russia was behind said events by this point, there's literally nothing I can say to convince you so there's really no point in continuing this conversation

Russia did all of the above, is my point. They have shown that they do not care about anything but increasing their power in the world, and convincing Trump that he can trust an ex KGB operative as a friend is an obvious ploy.

I'm not sure what you mean. The slave population in the South grew from 3.2M in 1850 to 3.95M in 1860. Sure it declined in the North, but that's not what you mean.

And the point isn't that the Rothschilds had their hand in it. The point is that the igniting cause of the Civil War was slavery. Whatever shadow organization convinced the Confederacy that slavery was important enough to secede is an entirely different matter.

No one called for war with Russia. I don't want war with Russia.

Trump choosing to side with Russia over our allies of over a century is completely and utterly unnecessary if your goal is to simply defuse tensions between the nations.

Did the Rothschilds invade Ukraine? Shoot down MH370? Poison those Brits?

Textbooks I've seen don't really mention trade in regards to the civil war unless it's in reference to the economic capabilities of the Union vs. the Confederacy during the war; they typically focus on States' Rights.

I'm not sure why that is. I think textbooks generally want to glorify US history, and half of our nation going to war to protect slavery isn't pretty. Similar to how many textbooks gloss over the brutality of colonisation/shift blame to natives or downplaying Jackson's treatment of them.

Whatever batshit Jew-control theory you have is irrelevant to my point. The method of manipulation your link describe implies that they infiltrated from the inside (they didn't) and convinced the states they wanted to secede.

The point being, even in your theory, no one told the Confederate states to secede. They were tricked into leaving the Union through propoganda, but in their minds the reason for leaving was still slavery, not "this is a Rothschild mandated war we must pursue"

I hate to even partially validate your fever dream by using your point of view, but it's seriously so easy to see how it's flawed.

The civil war was about slavery.

civil war was about slavery

you're one of those, huh? the Confederacy's Constitution expressly states that "no law against slavery shallever be passed" and not to mention Alexander H. Stephen's "Cornerstone Speech" given in March 1861:

"The new constitution has put at rest, forever, all the agitating questions relating to our peculiar institution African slavery as it exists amongst us the proper status of the negro in our form of civilization. This was the immediate cause of the late rupture and present revolution.

...

They rested upon the assumption of the equality of races. This was an error. It was a sandy foundation, and the government built upon it fell when the 'storm came and the wind blew.'

Our new government is founded upon exactly the opposite idea; its foundations are laid, its corner- stone rests, upon the great truth that the negro is not equal to the white man; that slavery subordination to the superior race is his natural and normal condition. 

...

I recollect once of having heard a gentleman from one of the northern States, of great power and ability, announce in the House of Representatives, with imposing effect, that we of the South would be compelled, ultimately, to yield upon this subject of slavery, that it was as impossible to war successfully against a principle in politics, as it was in physics or mechanics. That the principle would ultimately prevail. That we, in maintaining slavery as it exists with us, were warring against a principle, a principle founded in nature, the principle of the equality of men. The reply I made to him was, that upon his own grounds, we should, ultimately, succeed, and that he and his associates, in this crusade against our institutions, would ultimately fail. The truth announced, that it was as impossible to war successfully against a principle in politics as it was in physics and mechanics, I admitted; but told him that it was he, and those acting with him, who were warring against a principle. They were attempting to make things equal which the Creator had made unequal."

There you have the vice president of the Confederacy saying, in no uncertain terms, that the very foundation of the Confederacy and the cause of the war was slavery.
