I certainly wouldn't say it like that at all. But I think you're really missing something big here. One of the hallmarks of compelling...
That is not what I'm saying at all. I specifically phrased it in the manner I phrased it so it wouldn't be construed that way, which is how I...
I know race-hustling is your thing, but I'm not spinning it into a positive. I'm saying that Blacks used the skills that they learned to...
I specifically am not trying to spin slavery into a positive. I think I've been pretty damned clear on that end. I don't know what else you want...
Black slaves developed zero marketable skills in the US pre-1865? They were exploited for labor, but the labor itself was valuable. Which...

I really don't know either. We also shouldn't try and keep score too much because I don't like the idea of reducing the slavery discussion to...

If the point of this is supposed to be that Blacks are capable of succeeding on their own, even then, if they are simply given the opportunity,...

I think the problem with that is that it really fails to contextualize history in such a way that it essentially misrepresents history. This is a...
Unfortunately, our current body politic enables pendulum swinging rather than a push to an optimal point. I don’t think this necessarily had bad...
If true and final, looks like a step too far. You can teach nuanced history without performing the slavery equivalent of "Mussolini made the...
Are you supposed to have a pre-set amount of references to January 6th in every Too Hot thread, even if the thread has absolutely nothing to do...
I think Azcat has good intentions, but the dude doesn't recognize just how small we are when it comes to the problem and how small most individual...

There it is. We're only ever allowed to talk about January 6th, now until the end of time... until of course you find your next Boogeyman which...
This is not legal advice....
