Most southerners didn't even own slaves. Most Confederate soldiers were dirt poor themselves.

Yeah, but they liked the idea of slaves. They could say shit like "I might be dirt poor, but at least I ain't no slave". It is what drives all right wing policies, the promise that you might never get rich under them, but at least there will always be someone lower than yourself on the social totem pole. You will always have the ability to punch down when you are angry, the state will guarantee it for you.

Whether or not individual Confederate soldiers, owned slaves personally, it is still broadly accurate to say that the cause for which the Confederacy as a whole was fighting was slavery.

Not everyone in the army was fighting because they believed in that, but that's what the army was basically fighting for.
