I think your confused. The abolition of slavery was a right wing thing.
The want to have a slaves was left wing
No. “Republican” does not equal “Right wing”. Maybe in the modern context, but political parties evolve and shift on the left right scale over time. The Republican party was originally established as a less Conservative opposition to the Democrats.
Besides, the policial party pushing for the thing is surely much less important than the thing itself. The act of enslaving a portion of the population, based entirely on racial divisions, is an extremely right wing position.
Ironically it’s also extremely left wing position.
