Pretty hilarious seeing certain folks get their panties in a bunch over the 1619 project winning a Pulitzer

Probably because they realize my posts highlighting our president elect's ZADDY appeal deserved the award.

I’m surprised there aren’t more conservatives who advance the theory that the trans Atlantic slave trade never happened and that black people all came here as immigrants.

They're working their way there. First got to dispel the nasty and completely baseless rumor that the Civil War was about slavery and not state's rights.

Slavery was and is a mindset. Therefore, da indentured servant trade had da cotton coffers booming B

The 1619 Project essay is a powerful piece, but many historians have pointed out some serious problems with its accounting of history, including the essay’s central claim that “one of the primary reasons the colonists decided to declare their independence from Britain was because they wanted to protect the institution of slavery.”

The reactionary criticisms of conservatives can and should be challenged and exposed for what they are. But there are serious issues that have been raised by others that should be taken seriously.

this is a sensible response

just hilarious seeing Rafael Cruz get more worked up about that than say a certain someone accusing his father of being involved with JFK’s assassination

Mf’er’s wonder why I am angry. I said this on another thread, I would not be disappointed if this virus decimated the entire NYPD.

The NYPD is just a glorified racist street gang with pensions.

My favorite comeback to this deflection is "a state's right to do what?".
