They feared mob rule in the form of “democracy.” That’s why they tried to place restrictions on voters (not abhorrent to all woke types) to prevent a hysterical current fad at any given time from crushing the rights of the minority.

Yeah, but some of them were slave owners, so the whole document must be declared racist and done away with.

Yes, that goes without saying. The founding of America as a place to build a slavery system in the 1600s as kids learn in elementary school shows that.


Slavery today is much more widespread-—with none allowed in the United States.

Of the ten to sixteen million Africans who survived the voyage to the New World, more than one-third landed in Brazil and between 60 and 70 percent ended up in Brazil or the sugar colonies of the Caribbean. Only 6 percent arrived in what is now the United States.—Gilder Lehrman Inst. of Am. History

The Guardian:
Experts have calculated that roughly 13 million people were captured and sold as slaves between the 15th and 19th centuries; today, an estimated 40.3 million people – more than three times the figure during the transatlantic slave trade – are living in some form of modern slavery, according to the latest figures ...Feb 25, 2019


50 million people worldwide in modern slavery.
International Labour Organization
Sep 12, 2022 — The number of people in modern slavery has risen significantly in the last five years. 10 million more people were in modern slavery in 2021.

IIRC, the total number that went to the United States was around 400,000.

I’ll track that to make sure the reparations we pay out go their symbolic and metaphorical “descendants” soon.

referring to her husband once being the leader of the free world and thus privy to the most sensitive of information.

That's a problem. What is her/his security clearance?

The list of things that terrify Moochelle about Trump getting re-elected is the same list of things that delight me thinking about Trump’s second term.
