[QUOTE="zubenelgenubi, post: 4638958, member: 63706"] Your untenable claim that all American institutions supported slavery and are racist. Slavery was a reality at the time of the founding. Slavery still exists today in some form or another. But if it were not for the industrial revolution, it would probably still be an accepted economic institution worldwide. We could have abolished slavery in the US in the 1830's, barely 50 years after the country established its independence, if it weren't for, you guessed it.... To say that America is racist denies the fact that it only took the US less than 100 years, and a quarter of a million lives of people fighting to end slavery, to completely end a millenea old economic institution. That screams racism and proslavery to you, huh? Wonder how long people like you are going to feel guilty about stuff that had nothing to do with you, or anyone alive today. Even more, I wonder how long people like you will continue to use unsupportable opinions to keep dividing people by race and driving wedges between us so that you can be sure everyone feels as guilty as you think is appropriate, all while the people pushing the fake narrative attempt to usurp power. Sad that you can't see what is really going on. I guess the Germans and the Russians didn't recognize communist agitation strategy when they saw it either. [/QUOTE]
