“Slavery was bad”

Kinda weird how this statement triggers the right.

I think its actually the woke b.s. around trying to blame modern people for what happened well into the past and expecting us to pay for it now.

@BrandNewMan if you do not know history you are doomed to repeat it . WAKE UP kinda why we got schools.
@markinkansas Utter b.s.. No one is saying don't teach about slavery / history .. or that it was wrong. Don't leave out it wasn't only here, or that it was brought here before the US even existed. Don't teach it through the woke lens of critical race theory. Quit trying to exact penance from people today for sins of the past .. especially when what occurred was representative of the times.

Teaching history doesn't have to be done that way. It sure as hell wasn't when I was in school.

Nice day for trolling.
Catch anything?
Plenty others get triggered as well. That's why it gets used for so much leverage.

@Reason10 you are %100 right, people find it hard to think on this site, I have a black friend who said they should get money from years ago, i said i never owned slaves and you never picked cotton, so what's your point, we laughed
Slavery was "necessary" to "found" the new "nation".
A war remains"essential " to the"economy".
Americans have never had a legitimate country.
