I guess we might as well put the lawn jockey out and really raise NYT ire.

“These lawns come on the backs of slaves,” he continues, zooming in on a painting of George Washington in a field to highlight men cutting the grass with scythes. “It’s grueling, endless work.”
________________
My husband agrees. He wants done with all lawn mowing. I won’t show him this.

We have a large property. Thankfully, a neighbor has a medium sized real tractor and loves to run it with cutters and blades. He keeps our trails clear, plows us out in the winter and grades our gravel drive after the rains in return for hunting privileges.

We’re all white and we cannot afford, mowing, plowing and grading services.

Oh and speaking of scythes? Years ago (1990s or so), we were briefly in a CRP program. 2 college kids came out and told us NOT to mow. They suggested we hire teenagers to hand scythe the weeds on 80 acres. I laughed. There were no teenagers, certainly none who would do such work and if one of them would do it and cut themselves, we’d be sued.

I had to get my Congresscritter to intervene.

I wonder if anyone sane still takes “racist” seriously.

The ground cover of choice in the late 19th century was... clover.

If anyone was to come over and mow my crabgrass they are more than welcome. Crabgrass is naturally occurring and I cut it with a human powered (manual) reel mower. No fertilizers (petrochemicals) are ever used. It is 3/4 of an acre. In the fall I mulch the leaves in place with a battery powered Ryobi.

As far as I’m concerned the author of this hit piece can FOAD!

I guess my job, mowing lawns, is racist? I guess I should sell my lawn equipment and go in welfare, right NY Slimes?

They always link their global warming agenda to some anti racist cause, meaning they hyphen this because they want the minorities to kill themselves for it and feel good about it. It is a way to make sure any slave reparation is diverted back to Al Gore’s pockets

Lawns absorb CO2 and release Oxygen. Looks like the NYT writer doesn’t know basic science, which shouldn’t surprise anyone.

The NYTimes long ago gave up the concept of accurate reporting and writing.
