More insane rantings by Charles Blowjob!!
On the issue of American slavery abortion, I am an absolutist: enslavers were abortionists are amoral monsters. The very idea that one group of people believe that they have the right to own kill another human being is abhorrent and depraved.
Changing tagline.
Would you please post a better excerpt.
I’m not interested in clicking a Slimes link.
No matter what skin color you have, if your IQ is over 120, your forefathers owned slaves. There is no civilization going back 10000 years that did not have slaves. As Marx said, slavery was a major part of the evolution of society. If your IQ is below 120 you are also likely to be the product of slave holders. But as your IQ goes down your likelihood of being more slave than slave holder increases.
Slaves did not just exist in America before the civil war. They have existed in every corner of the globe for more than 10,000 years. And they exist now. If you’re Irish, or Jewish, or Asian, Or black, you are still descendants of slave owners. You can’t get passed it. By the way, the fact that your IQ is over 120 may make you a 99.99% likely descendant of a slave holder, you are also, 99.99% likely to be the product of a slave descendant too.
Why do you say “southern” founders?
Bkmk
Abortion is worse then slavery. At least they didn’t KILL the slaves.
I’ll believe these absolutist race mongers when they show the same concern for the enslaved women in today’s Islamic societies and religion.
Slavery, GET OVER IT, ALREADY!
It didn’t happen to you or anyone you knew or your parents knew, or your grandparents knew.
It’s an ugly part of our HISTORY.
We have come soooo far in just my lifetime, regarding race relations.
Blacks were known as “Negroes” taught this in school. “Nigger” was a commonly used word to describe Negroes.
Today interracial marriages/couplings are common place. Bi-racial children are just “children” when they used to be “mulatto”. Both aren’t even given a second glance today.
I recall when you almost NEVER saw such a thing and couples (even just “dating” couples) would be ostracized, the male even beaten.
We have come so far as a society. Discrimination in housing, employment, voting, schools, is disappearing.
All this latest terrorist BULLSHIT, (”protests” MY ASS!) is setting race causes back a generation! It is driving us back to the sixties, if not a new civil war!
Is THAT what you want? Just how is ANY of this helping your cause?
Rioting, looting, and burning down neighborhoods (YOUR OWN neighborhoods) over three THUGS like George Floyd, Trayvon Martin, and Michael Brown who all KILLED THEMSELVES. (because of the lifestyle they lived and their actions on the day they died)
THESE are your heroes?
What about Frederick Douglass, Clarence Thomas, Tim Scott, Denzel Washington, Candace Owens, Ben Carson, Thomas Sowell, Allen West, Alvida King, Sherrif David Clarke, Star Parker, and many others, including of course Martin Luther King Jr.
Hey looters and rioters (”protesters”), how is “the content of your character” looking?
Not to excuse slavery, but people forget how rural America began. Landowners needed people to work their growing fields. Others were offering them unskilled labor from another country to come here and work. So, the richer ones bought the labor and then kept them as slaves.
Sort of like how unskilled labor from Mexico comes and works the fields today only today’s labor lives in squalor and is forced to bounce around from plantation to plantation according to what needs picking.
Slavery, in Colonial America, was an economic issue moreso than a moral issue. The landowners needed the labor to be able to maximize their yield and maximize their profits in the narrow window where the crops needed to be gathered and moved to market.
Again, it doesn’t excuse the moral wrong of slavery but it puts the issue of slaveowners in context. They weren’t evil people who owned slaves just because it was evil. They owned slaves because it was an economic necessity in an agricultural economy.
BTW, since we are in such an intolerant mood of moral outrage, I suggest we tear down every statue and rename every government building regarding anyone who supported abortion. Is not killing human lives worse than enslaving people?
Because they had slaves. That’s why.
You’re an idiot. Some self righteous fool like you in the future will probably condemn those savages who lived in 2020 for eating meat....as he chomps on his synthetically grown meat regularly.
If not eating meat then it will be something else. To idiots like this who engage in presentism and think they hold a monopoly on morality, there will always be a new cause and people in the past will never measure up.
Of the original 13 founding states, 13 of them were slave states.
The slave states were: New York, New Jersey, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Delaware, Maryland, and Rhode Island.
Also, North and South Carolina, Virginia, and Georgia were slave states. Don't ever forget to cast four-thirteenths responsibility in that direction.
If Blow is so smart, why doesn’t he go back in time and lecture Washington on what a bad man he is?
And yet - slave traders will be memorialized in the New Jerusalem that God is building.
Will liberals enter into the city, at least to lecture the Almighty that He, in their opinion, has done wrong?
Yeah, and the half-black QB for KC can whine and cry all the way to the bank with his $503 MILLION contract for the next 10 years!! How much would he be making if he were playing for the Congo Rebels of the Southern African Football League in Johannesburg??
