That is absurd! Things made of cotton, what few are left, are in museums.
With Emancipation, cotton farming ended, because there weren’t any more slaves to pick it. That’s why Nylon, Rayon, Dacron, and, ultimately, polyester had to be invented: people could no longer afford silk or linen, and wool itched too much in the summer.

liberal bullies enjoy the power that comes from constantly changing the rules, keeping people off balance, so that they can demand anything and make it seem reasonable.Let's underline this. "1984" explained that the constant redefinition of The Truth is to "teach" you not to try to evaluate reality and truth on your own via logic, reason, and history, but to accept whatever the State says it is, immediately and without question. "We have always been at war with Oceania."

Closest experience this chick had to slavery is picking the cotton out of a bottle of aspirin (Some comedian, forgot his name though).
Its time to shut down the victim-hood complex and just say "no more" (Includes supporting media/universities that prop this crap up). Everyone can rationalize any situation where they feel victimized, institutional or personnel, including white people lurkers. You grow a thick skin and push on.

“does she freak out when she hears” ...
No, she is on “permanent freak out”, she doesn't need anything to set her off. Those nut cases seek notarity and will go to endless extremes to obtain it.

The U.S. is still the 3rd largest cotton producer in the world. No slaves in the fields tho, just a few white guys and a big machine.

"Things made of cotton, what few are left, are in museums." I have to assume you are indulging in sarcasm, as I don't see how anyone dumb enough to actually believe the above would be posting on FR.
