the number is misinformation, i apologize for the confusion. see the body text of the post for more info.
Thanks! You’re very correct; I’be updated the post and apologize for my failure!
Thank you! You are indeed correct and I have updated the post.
i feel like you skip every fourth word when reading my comments but i’m not too bothered because at least you are correct lol
Slaveholders’ crimes were downplayed and the history of the Confederacy rewritten to appear noble and unrelated to slavery. Some slaveholders were even compensated financially for the freeing of their slaves, while no freed people were compensated, ever.

no
i guess maybe you were meaning “that’s what we did” as advocating for slaveholder punishment where i interpreted it as actually doing it
either u are being sarcastic or u 100 degree misinterpreted my comment, we are saying the same thing? /confused
I adovacte for their survival, recovery, repentance, and penance in proportion to the weight of their crimes.
It definitely does suck very incredibly bad. I think there are things non-Southerners can do to help too of course but it’s more indirect.
honestly very correct. someone else pointed out that even the worst of us states were only 70/30 maga.
call me a bleeding heart lib but i don’t celebrate the suffering of 10 people just because 7 of them asked for it. 🙃
Truth! And, if my understanding of history and sources are correct, Russian citizenry had even less say in their government or precipitating invasion than the average American.
Russian elections are like, crazy rigged. I’m sure our president is jealous.
yes. class consciousness is the most effective defense in culture war. it doesn’t mean ignoring it, of course.
i would never and have never advocated for ignoring the material, social, or policy conditions that fall under the umbrella of “culture war.” and yet that’s something you made up and forced upon me with no evidence, argument, or logic. just emotions.
check out this thread because i am done feeding this emotional energy. https://lemmy.cafe/post/19968013/12353527 notice how the conversation exactly matches all of my positive care for people living under oppression and in no way reflects your made-up men of straw about “ignoring the culture war and trans people.”
and notice how other people in the thread are understanding, asking questions, and not calling names when there is confusion.
e; typo there was a random “your” in there my fault
It’s so sad. Voting age in the US is 18 for the record so even if we ignore the historic systemic voting barriers for older people and across generations, it’s also transparently malicious to blame teens, most of whom never voted once, for their deaths.
Yes. :( Fortunately the mods and general vibe here are okay but Instagram and Reddit are rife with it. Twitter is… even worse.
Just wanted to put some love and acknowledgement out there in the face of that insanity. :)
hell yeah
