    Ah look, the continuation of proving that we lost the Civil War 160 years later. This is one of the major tenets of the Lost Cause myth of the confederacy.

    I’m sure I’m going to get banned somewhere by constantly saying this because some conservative snowflake is going to cry I said nasty things about traitors from a century ago, but one of the top 10 worst things the US did for the long run was not publicly hang every confederate officer and instead let them go around and let them cry that they were being bullied for states rights enslaving people.

    The Pedo Party really wants to make slavery a thing again…

    Capitalism and trickle-down is the closest they’re getting, they want that last step to being able to physically OWN people.

        The funniest part is how, if we snapped our fingers and were a socialist nation tomorrow, I bet the vast majority of holdouts with a few remaining brain cells would be saying things like

        “Woah, I don’t have to pay most of my income to insurance companies? My brother who got fired isn’t gonna be instantly thrown out on the street? Where’s THIS been all my life?”

    There are only three things you need to know about Trump: (1) he always fails, (2) he always lies and (3) he always chickens out.

      Wilson was a Klan sympathizer, so they’d agree on that, though Wilson was also an elitist who was snooty about higher education, so he’d look down on Trump’s illiteracy.
