And before that: Google the Powell memo.

You will have a crashout when you realize that even burgerland would have been a lot more bearable of a place if the porks weren’t spoiled, tantrum-throwing brats. Almost every shitty thing you see is the result of a multi-decade long pig tantrum over the civil rights act and the new deal.

idk the english are chuds just like the ameriKKKans. and they banned slavery in the 16th century. my guess is it would always have turned out this way.

they weren't setup to benefit from chattel slavery in the same way. they still did racist imperialism, just with wage slavery since it suited their system better.
