Not your contradiction, I don't think you have one. What you said was spot on. The contradiction is that of the progressive historians who have weaponized history.
In the 21st century, the progressive historians constantly tell us that the Founding Fathers were racist.
WELL WHY THEN DIDN'T THE SOUTHERNERS RELY UPON THE RACISM OF THE FOUNDERS?!?!?
Why did they have to go to "trendy German philosophers" to find what they needed?
That's why it's so interesting to me.
If the Founding Fathers were racists, it was a huge massive secret in 1860 that didn't get discovered until the progressives discovered it over a century later. I apologize, these are not meant as digital shouting in the traditional sense. I just can't get past this extreme historical malpractice on part of "the professionals" in academia.
All of their lies fail the smell test.
........... Meant to write “the so-called racism of the founders”, since all of this proves that the historians are liars.
But I digress.
Everyone white person in the 19th century was racist. Even hero Lincoln.
