Game of Thrones Showrunners to Portray America as Slave State

I heard Rush today and he sort of missed the point. The ideals of slavery are alive and well in America today. The left is correct.

Don’t believe? Read some of the pro-slavery apologists from the 1850’s. Start with Henry Hughes and his book “ Treatise on Sociology” published in 1854. Then tell me what his “Warranteeism” sounds like. (I understand ol’ Woodrow Wilson was a fan of Henry Hughes.)

Men like Hughes, Calhoun and Fitzhugh clearly felt that the state grants you your rights. (Now, name two major political parties that seem to think that way today.)

George Fitzhugh in his book “Sociology of the South or the Failure of Free Society” declares that “socialism is slavery”. And believe me, he was all in for slavery.

Some of the pro-slavery apologists were even in favor of expanding slavery to encompass all races and a majority of the populace. They saw it as the moral thing to do because they regarded the majority of people as incapable of taking care of themselves. You have to love such benevolent progressiveness.

Maybe HBO, being packed with progressives, is just going to show us the alternative to socialism? Oh wait, no alternative, Fitzhugh said they are the same. My bad.

/that would have been 160 years ago. I deducted 1857 from 2017, because you said from the 1850's

I really am not sure what that has to do with today

Later, the Irish were marched right off the boats and into uniform and sent to free the blacks, which rankled some.

Yeah, about that. It never happened.

I think we should bring back slavery. Think of the upside... Full employment!

You deny that that there were white and Asian slaves? Why?

Read the books and you will see that the ideology that takes away freedom and creates dependency has been alive and well for the past 160 years.

“Chinese were never slaves in the US.”

Yet, if they tried to escape from the RR, the Pinkertons hunted them down like animals
