Perhaps Marxism makes headway in the South after the war.... There were already German Marxists in Texas before 1860. They had a lot of enemies, of course. The primary public opposition to them was due to their abolitionist stance. Could they have won more acceptance, perhaps in alliance with the Northern occupation?
That doesn't work either. Marxism to exist in any appreciable sense requires the kind of economic changes the Confederacy was created in 11 of the 15 slave states to forestall. If that happens then the question is moot as there won't be a Civil War in the first place.
