We look at all this through the prism of slavery. I suspect that slavery was much less of a factor than people today assume it was.
Too much money to be made by looking at things through the prism of slavery, it's turned into a full-blown industry.
Agreed. But even through all of this mess it’s still a shining example of American Exceptionalism.
When slavery was all over the world, where’s the one place it wasn’t?
Right on the governor’s desk. That’s where. It was the colonists who were becoming Americans who put together these abolitionist bills, with the Empire playing veto.
These abolitionist bills were the exception to the rule - Exceptionalism.
We always win when we appeal to our history as it actually happen and that’s why the progressives have done everything they can to erase every part of it they can. Progressivism cannot survive American history, all of the erasure proves it.
