minus-squareFlying Squidlink1•4 months agoSeriously? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sally_Hemings You should care that one of our revered founding fathers kept a slave mistress that he raped when other people are trying to deify them. Also, you should care about black history because it’s American history.
minus-square@Mangolink-1•4 months agoWhat the fuck can I do about long dead guy and his long dead mistress? Shit’s over with. Focus on today.
minus-squareFlying Squidlink0•4 months agoYou can remember her. Like you can remember other people who were part of the black history of America. Or are you saying black history isn’t important?
minus-square@Mangolink-1•4 months agoI’m saying history isn’t important. Don’t fuckin race bait me. I live in the now.
minus-squareFlying Squidlink1•4 months agoThis is what you said after I tried to tell you who Sally Hemmings was: What the fuck can I do about long dead guy and his long dead mistress? Shit’s over with. Focus on today. So it sure sounds like you’re saying history isn’t important. Living in the now when you don’t know the history is how past mistakes are repeated.
minus-square@Mangolink-1•4 months agoAm I supposed to just not do what the victors are insisting are mistakes, or do you think they’re telling it their way to maintain control over me?
minus-squareFlying Squidlink1•4 months agoIt’s interesting that you didn’t mention things like consent or even the thing I mentioned myself- the deification of the founders. Sounds like you do have things to learn.
Seriously?

Well gee, now I know not to keep a slave in my basement.
Is that really all you think there is to learn?
