The yesteryear shtick doesn't fly, because there were more than a small segment of society who didn't agree with slavery and argued that it was wrong. They were ignored in favor of the prevalent pro-slavery mob mentality of the time. This is documented history.You don't have to destroy or dishonor some to honor others.
Nobody is all bad or all good.
Holding people who lived 150+ years ago to today's standards is beyond unreasonable and ridiculous (unless the real goal is something else)(it is).
The sad part of all this is that you are probably think the people you support give a single fuck about you. That's the difference, I suppose. I KNOW they people I support are VERY self-interested, no matter who they are. I make sure that their interests are aligned with mine.
Slavery is a wrong in all times throughout history.
Surely you knew that. Surely.
