You are correct. The only other thing that Lincoln is criticized for is suspending habeas corpus during the US civil war. I don’t know what the person you’re commenting on is on about. They may be a confederate sympathizer.
Ah! I see now. When you said "it's telling that while you can’t think of something cartoonishly evil he did off of the top of your head," I thought you were saying I was ignorant for not being able to think of something cartoonishly evil. My bad, I'm just primed to read hostility on Lemmy I guess.
That’s the only other thing he was critiqued for? Brother, you must certainly have never opened a book before…
