Link please?

Since the tinfoilers were kicked out in 2000, neoconfederates were the running joke with their hatred of Lincoln and northeasterners, and their claims that blacks liked slavery and wanted to be slaves, some even say they were better off as slaves. Posters would moan when a neoconfederate would start in on a non-Civil War thread. That was 3-4 years ago and I don't have the links to the threads, obviously. That's when I knew they were discredited and a wise person doesn't spend too much time arguing with people that are delusional. lol

their claims that blacks liked slavery

Yes, of course I noticed your slight of hand in the response to 4CJ above, wherein you substitute 'slavery' for 'Confederacy.' I see it's a trick you like enough to do in subsequent posts, so I'll let you have it. The problem with it is the idiotic absolutism by Unionists. Perhaps it's bred into their ideology: As the Union must be absolute, so must all facts pertaining to the aggressive war for it's maintenance. So be it, but I would be surprised if you found that black hatred of slavery was universal (especially amongst free black slaveowners), let alone hatred of the CSA. And so it continues: No black confederates, No black support for the CSA, No room for the anti-federalists in the category 'founders.'

some even say they were better off as slaves.

Who said that? Some posters here? Or some slaves? One I believe I can document... the other you apparently cannot. Such is the way, typically.

Posters would moan when a neoconfederate would start in on a non-Civil War thread

Usually it seems most of the moaning comes from explaining our system of government to the Hamiltonian bloggers, who's desires for the US were shot to hell, shredded, and turned away. Maybe I'm only hearing the moans from my side of the fence. It's very possible that their moaning is equal.

As far as controversy and argument, perhaps you're one of those people who likes one-sided discussion. I've learned a great deal from these WBTS threads, and plan to continue. Sure, 90% of the posts are fluff and/or crap, but there are jewels in there, grab a pitchfork and dig. Here, Let me try it your way:

Headline: Gun Grabbers After Us Again

Post 1: Those guys suck.
Post 2: Right on, they do suck.
Post 3: They suck and they're bastards.
Post 4: I love guns, and those guys suck.

Headline: CA Supremes to Force Gay Marriage Down Everyone's Throat

Post 1: Those guys suck.
Post 2: Right on, they do suck.
Post 3: They suck and they're bastards.
...

I've tried it, I can't stay interested. The best threads on FR involve controversy: WOD, WBTS, Animal Rights.
