It's not a strawman. Democrats at the time of Lincoln are Republicans today. It's entirely disingenuous to pretend the parties never switched places when it comes to issues of race, among other things.
Define "Democrats at the time of Lincoln".
And that doesn't justify your generalization of the republican party.

IDK, I think they were called the wigs or something. The party that was so extremely against ending slavery that they split the country in half. There's a reason the Southern Strategy continues to work so well with Republicans.

It's also not a generalization, I didn't say ALL Republicans fly the confederate flag, but travel anywhere in the South and you'll be inundated with them.
