It’s your distortion of reality that I object to. It’s like someone asking about Benjamin Franklin and you replying, “Oh yeah - he had gout”

It’s true - but in no way the defining element for Franklin - or the colonialists.

I'm glad to see you admit that it is distortion when applied to the Founders. It would be nice if you also recognized that it is the very same distortion when applied to the Confederates.

It's true, but in no way the defining element for the men who fought to protect their homeland from invasion.

But the southern slavocracy made slavery their emblem - their raison d’être.
