LMAO...there's not enough room here to "enlighten you"....but dems have always been the party of slavery, hatred, the KKK, etc.  Nazis borrowed American progressive ideas, ie: elimination of physically & mentally handicapped, Jews, Negroes, "human weeds", an all white "utopian" society, etc.etc...   The information is out there...but if you study history, you DO need to read different historians from different eras...as their view of history is written from the perspective of the time THEY are living in.  Lincoln suspended Habeas Corpus, and closed over 300 newspapers and tossed the editors in jail because they disagreed with him.  He also went to war to "preserve the union"...which didn't apply to the states that had seceded.  And he did NOTHING to "free" slaves in the states that remained IN the union, and still had slavery (In 1862 even his IRS began taxing slave sales in those states to help "fund the war". )  Those should get you started!
