fuck me, how hard is it to please you? I'm a commie that's bad. I'm a nazi, that's bad. you change your mind quicker than it takes aids to spread in an african nation.
Uh, well, since you're a Brit, being an anti-Brit pleases me quite greatly. Support actions which destroy the British as they've made an enemy of my people and deserve to become extinct.
I love you baya. you remind me of all the reasons we hate the australians. however scumhook and $$trooper provide an exception the the rule, as they're pretty cool guys- which if I'm honest muddies the waters a little.
I never really understood any of this nationalist bullshit. As far as I'm concerned I think that all countries, and the people in them, suck equally. At best you can separate countries in a first world/third world kind of way, but I find that each country seems to be awful in their own special way.
Are you referring to the Emancipation Proclamation? That merely "freed" slaves outside his immediate jurisdiction. All unionist slave owners still kept their slaves. One notable owner was Ulysses Grant. Apart from that, he was planning on deporting Blacks to Liberia/Africa and other places when the war was over. For all intents and purposes, he would be considered a "White Supremacist" if he were alive today. Blacks should be praising John Wilkes Booth for putting a bullet in Lincoln's head before the war ended.
Until 1868. They also had segregation and things like the American Colonization Society. According to Lincoln himself most Blacks sent to Liberia (and other places) would've died. Source. I learnt most of these things in high school, BTW. It's a travesty how American schools only exist these days to indoctrinate and provide an excuse to pay incompetent/worthless individuals who couldn't find work in the free market.
For what's it's worth, the entire country was divided in several factions. There were straight up abolitionists who wanted slaves to have all freedoms and then there were the dogs with no teeth who tried their best to appease everyone. Lincoln was one such person. Fact is, once the slaves were freed they kept their jobs, only now they got paid. Even a strong majority of the northern ones. And on the defense of grant. The guy was a drunken bearded angry hero, who freed his only slave before the war started and shoved his boot up the KKK's southern butthole.
Except that's wrong. He kept his plantation (dubbed White Haven) open for business until he was forced to shut it down after the war. He was the overseer during that time. I think you're thinking of Lee, who was the one who freed all his slaves before the war started. Hahaha, disregard that. Lee freed his slaves in 1862.
