Actually, it's exactly like historians claiming that a slave trader is an abolitionist.

Slave trading abolitionists and slave owning abolitionists are real. Complain all you want it isn't going away.

"Who kept their own slaves in bondage."

Besides, there's this seeming hypocrisy again, quick to jump into the steamroller. But you have already made it clear that you have more loyalty to the empire than the Founders anyways, even when the crown mistreated Southerners, so this all makes sense.

Did you even know that the empire no longer actually exists? Maybe you didn't get the memo. You're protecting something so zealously that no longer even exists.

So. Here's the memo.

The British Empire is gone. You no longer have any need to protect it as you do.

Slave trading abolitionists and slave owning abolitionists are real. Complain all you want it isn't going away.

You have an error of logic here. You see, John Newton *STOPPED* slave trading when he became an abolitionist.

Washington, Jefferson et al, continued holding slaves, and therefore they weren't actual abolitionists.

This "do as I say, not as I do" mindset is hypocrisy.

You can't be in favor of abolition if you don't actually abolition.
