Alert: You just upbeared extremest content. We encourage you to rescind your vote and engage in the marketplace of ideas why slavery had some benefits for africans, actually.

Damn what a reddit-logo nostalgia moment

Isn't this literally part of the PragerU Florida curriculum? That slaves learned 'trades' and how it was beneficial to them? Absolute evil shit

[–] CyborgMarx@hexbear.net 2 points 2 years ago

PragerU: "Capitalism is all about freedom and individual agency, but also slavery was good and benefited black people"

Straight up mainstream neo-nazism

It's history backwards: slaves were trafficked not just as "unskilled" labor, but because they knew how to do stuff.

The only thing John Brown did wrong was failing to kill all slave owners.

Old John Brown's body lies a moldering in the grave,

While weep the sons of bondage whom he ventured all to save;

But though he sleeps his life was lost while struggling for the slave,

His soul is marching on.

Glory, Glory, Hallelujah!

Look, as a centrist I believe historical figures should be judged by the standards of their time

And since slaves, historically mind you, put their masters to death whenever they got the chance

Absolute chad.

It's just totally crazy to me that someone like him is still seen as a "controversial" figure.

John Brown did nothing wrong

I couldn't disagree more. John Brown deserves to be hung for being a hopeless fool! He attempted to capture Virginia with seventeen men when he ought to know that it would require at least twenty-five.

Ok, federation was a good idea

[–] ImmortanStalin@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 2 years ago

I couldn't agree more!

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 1 points 2 years ago

But but actually you should just vote the slavery away.

[–] artificialset@hexbear.net 1 points 2 years ago

slave owners should be killed!

[–] booty@hexbear.net 1 points 2 years ago

all slave owners should be fed into a woodchipper. the same woodchipper, at the same time. it'll probably break it. that's ok.
