On The Smithsonian and Slavery: Trump’s Whitewashing of History

Which has nothing to do with this thread, dispite your attempt to derail it.

Sure, 150 years ago. As always, if you can identify a current Democratic politician who supports slavery, I'll join you in running them out of politics.

They love the free trade agreements with China that's good enough to prove the Democrats support slavery and child labor.

You don't want the whole truth about what happened in Africa, and the first slaveowner was not back. Do not post that story about Anthony Johnson that used Lewis Haydens picture

Because you couldn't take picture in the 1600's,

You're the one using fake pictures and disingenuous reasoning to support your bigoted and racist attitude towards the white man.

CHUCKLE

Indeed..., The Corwin Amendment was introduced during a time of intense national division over slavery, just before the Civil War. It was seen as a last-ditch effort to appease Southern states and prevent secession. Despite its passage in Congress, the amendment did not stop the secession of Southern states, and the Civil War began shortly thereafter. Ultimately, the amendment was overshadowed by the ratification of the Thirteenth Amendment in 1865, which abolished slavery.

The Corwin Amendment would have been the 13th Amendment. Republicans were ready to make slavery a constitutionally protected activity to keep the South in the Union. But what this shows is that Republicans were no better than the Democrats of that day.

It's funny how they try telling me how I should not live in the past while they do it all the time.

Wrong. I use the picture the racists showed you was Anthony Johnson who they claimed owned the first slave owner. Unfortunately for you, that honor belongs to white man Hugh Gwynn from Virginia. When whites claim the first slaveowner was black, that's a lie. I don't have any attitude towards whites who aren't racist. So you racists can stop trying to include non-racist whites with you scum.

Wait, you want to talk about slavery which ended 160 years ago, but you then don't want to talk about the Party of slavery, the Party of secession, the Party of black codes, the Party of the KKK, and the Party of lynchings, much of which was much less than 150 years ago.

IOW, you want to ignore facts and exculpate the Democratic Party.

How can any discussion of slavery not indict the Democratic Party?

Really, Muslims supposedly gave up slavery in the early 20th Century. Yet, today in the 21st Century we still see Muslims enslaving Christians, like the Yazidi's, Syrian Christians.
Including jihadist groups, such as Boko Haram and ISIS, have been reported to capture and enslave people including women and children, often for sexual slavery after slaughtering the men.

Stop talking about what others are doing. America ended slavery on paper, but still practiced it for another 80 years by using laws and the courts. Although the Civil Rights Act was passed, there are whites still today who refuse to respect those laws, and right now, some are working to erase them.

You are right. Discussion of slavery must include the most despicable actions of all involved. The Democratic party ran at the head of the pack back then.

You understand the democratic party and Boko Haram are not the same thing, don't you?

I think that today's Republicans need to stop trying to make it like today's Democratic party is the same party it was in the 1860's.

They can't do that. Their programming tells them that bringing up the unfortunate history of the DNC is really sticking it to the libs despite the reality of what it does. They won't change their belief that they are making a killer point. They can't change their belief. That's how cults work.

The mindset, teh underlying ideology, the methods to achieve power,


there is a continuity....


A very distrubing continuation of behavior....

This has been a false narrative pushed by the far right for about 30 years now.

It rests on an entirely false narrative.

It falsely tries to represent Southern Democrats of the Jim Crow era and beyond as having the same values and motivations as modern liberals.

When, in fact, the opposite is true.

The trope rests on the general ignorance of American history among the target audience,

It also rests on desire of racists to erase their own past and pin it on their opponents.

With few exceptions, every Congressional seat once held by a racist Southern Democrat is now held by a racist Republican. Indeed, many of the more prominent Southern Democratic racist switched parties to the GOP from the late 1980’s to the mid 1990’s. Jesse Helms and Stom Thurmond come easily to mind.

This big lie was pushed heavily by demagogues like Rush Limbaugh (which is where I first heard it).

It shocked me, the first time I heard it.

The idea that the bigots and their Allie’s in the noise machine could y=take events that much of their audience lived through and transform it into a racist myth just amazed me.

Before the 60s, teh dems power was based on pandering to white racists, with policies designed to favor whites over blacks.


Afterwards the dems power was based on pandering to black racists, with policies designed to favor blacks over whites.


Do you really not see any similarities there?

“They” know the Democratic Party had dark aspects to its past.

They also know that the modern GOP is the party of bigotry.

Few know it better than Trump, whose entire political persona rests on pandering to the worst kind of white racists. And who consorts with white supremacists.

Nothing but shit talk.


YOu know that Trump is going to save hundreds of black lives in dc alone, right?


While you are shit talking and race baiting, he will be saving black lives by the hundreds.

We are already seeing massive improvement sin the weekly numbers.

give it a year and you will see the numbers. Two and the reduced murders alone will past hte hundreds mark. Or damn close.

We will be seeing reports from locals, on how they feel safer in the streets. Children playing in parks they were not allowed to go to, a year before. ECT.


I have asked dems if that happens would you support expanding the program to other dems cities so that instead of saving hundreds of black lives, Trump/Vance could save THOUSANDS of blacks lives.

Most libs refused to answer. THey pretended to be tood dumb to undestand the question or just spouted incoherent nonsense. The few that did answer, said NO.


They would rather see black men die by the thoudands, than give Trump a win.
