Alert: You just upbeared extremest content. We encourage you to rescind your vote and engage in the marketplace of ideas why slavery had some benefits for africans, actually.

Damn what a reddit-logo nostalgia moment

Isn't this literally part of the PragerU Florida curriculum? That slaves learned 'trades' and how it was beneficial to them? Absolute evil shit

[-] CyborgMarx@hexbear.net 24 points 1 year ago

PragerU: "Capitalism is all about freedom and individual agency, but also slavery was good and benefited black people"

Straight up mainstream neo-nazism

Old John Brown's body lies a moldering in the grave,

While weep the sons of bondage whom he ventured all to save;

But though he sleeps his life was lost while struggling for the slave,

His soul is marching on.

Glory, Glory, Hallelujah!

Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord

He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored

He's loosed the faithful lightning of His terrible, swift sword

His truth is marching on! jb-shining

The only thing John Brown did wrong was failing to kill all slave owners.

I couldn't agree more!

Look, as a centrist I believe historical figures should be judged by the standards of their time

And since slaves, historically mind you, put their masters to death whenever they got the chance

[-] artificialset@hexbear.net 27 points 1 year ago

slave owners should be killed!

[-] Sickos@hexbear.net 21 points 1 year ago

More and more people are saying this

The single most based American to ever live

[-] Awoo@hexbear.net 22 points 1 year ago

But but actually you should just vote the slavery away.

Only thing he did wrong was lose.

[-] booty@hexbear.net 20 points 1 year ago

all slave owners should be fed into a woodchipper. the same woodchipper, at the same time. it'll probably break it. that's ok.

Absolute chad.

It's just totally crazy to me that someone like him is still seen as a "controversial" figure.

John Brown did nothing wrong

I couldn't disagree more. John Brown deserves to be hung for being a hopeless fool! He attempted to capture Virginia with seventeen men when he ought to know that it would require at least twenty-five.

idk Castro took Cuba with 15. quality over quantity.

[-] PanaX@lemmy.ml 15 points 1 year ago

If anyone is interested, both the book and the series Good Lord Bird is well worth a peep.
