Lee felt that he had no other choice. In his mind, if he retreated, his army's morale would fall apart. If he remained in place, Union reinforcements could off their escape routes into Virginia. If he attempted to bypass the Union Army and march on Washington or another major city, they might intercept or attack his rear as they move off.

Didn't help that he was suffering from serious illness the time either. Likely impaired his judgement.

His orders on the first day were also badly executed. Ewell took the town, but failed to seize the heights beyond it that were far more valuable. If he had gotten to those hills first, the battle may have turned out to the exact opposite as Buford originally predicted. Meade would launch futile assaults on Confederate forces on the high ground and bleed his army white, giving Lee the decisive victory on Northern soil that had eluded him at Antietam nine months before.

They didn't expect that the North would just throw its men at them til they were exhausted of killing them.

Industrial agriculture
Property crimes
Slavery
Tenant farming
And class warfare perpetrated by the economic and political elilte saying "at least you aren't a nigger", and a religious culture imporated from Europe that functioned as an indoctrination systems of the poor to keep them subservient.
>"Work hard, don't mind that guy on hill making money from the fruits of your labor and charging you to access your means of production, usury, and absentee ownership are okay cuz you'll go to heaven if your a good boy"
Basically the social institutions of Europe in the context of freshly stolen Native American land and a new state authority(liberal "democracy"). Only the rich landowners voted or had influence in state affairs. It's basically the same today only hidden under an extra 200 years of indoctrination and the subversion of liberty.
It's like the in all of America, the old south was just unique in the context of industrial agriculture.
We are more or less the same as we where in 1830 equality wise, the demographics have shifted but the process is the same, the only difference is the poor now have even less liberty and the business-state has much more authority
