And lastly, you can argue the common man (who never owned slaves) was fighting for a war they thought was the preservation of all they knew, but it was twisted by their leaders. But to say the South wasn't fighting for slavery is a blatant and criminal ignorance of the entire reason they succeeded.
Their way of life was being threatened, sure, but they were oppressing an entire race to preserve that way of life. That is unacceptable.
There were heroes in the South fighting such as Stonewall Jackson, or Robert E. Lee. There are heroes on all sides of war, under all different banners. It doesn't make the root message and reason any less terrible though.

I'm not saying it's okay at all, like in the slightest, because it's not
but there is a difference between being racist, and molding your laws around racism

Jim Crow also happened when Johnson pulled the troops out of the South and let southern politicians put Jim Crow in place. It was basically another 100 years of slavery but under a new and less oppressive face.
It happened under the Union, yes, but that doesn't mean the South lawmakers and sympathizers suddenly vanished when the country was reunited. It's one of the reasons Johnson was impeached but saved by one vote.

I'd just like to point out one thing.
The institution of slavery isn't racist. The slaves were black because Africa sold the cheapest slaves.
Don't slip on that slope
It's a slippery one, but I'm pretty confident in my footing in the subject.
Slaves can be any color, and there were definitely white slaves.
Of course. But to say slavery isn't racist for Americans, kinda completely invalidates a lot of things. You're talking about the suppression of an entire race, followed by another century of oppression via Jim Crow laws. Pretty racist and suppressive.

the latter, because one could argue saying african american is a politically correct tumblr thing now a days, and saying "black" is seen as racist

I've given up at this point and just reluctantly accepted Trump as my future president.
Very good Choice.
Why did you capitalize choice?
cause I'm pro Choice
Then you can't be a Republican.
That's not true. That is too much of a grey area to dictate what party you stand for. I know Democrats who are pro life, and Republicans who are pro choice.

Lol fuck the UK.
I hate the redskins. But I hate these PC fucktards even more
You should change that tone to "fuck all western europe".
ya know, the ones who support Democracy the most.
I think you mean "fuck the impotent husks that are all that's left of Western European nations."
It was honestly better when Rome was ruling them all.
Nah. 19th century best century. Long live the mighty German Empire
HRE was better tbh

They're sending one of the shittiest NFL teams to the UK lmao
They're not the Browns or Jaguars.
The Redskins are just as bad lol
They were pretty okay this year, but I don't really watch NFL anymore. I find I can't spare 3.5 hours anymore for one game.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned it yet. I assume because we're getting a bit sick of all the debates. But I find this one interesting because it's basically a last gasp for Cruz and Rubio before Super Tuesday.
So yeah, CNN is streaming it if you're too lazy for TV.
Plus I just wanted to talk about it.

I just want to say that I fucking hate the term "people of color". It sounds so fucking pretentious. Just say " African-Americans", or "native americans", etc. It's such a tumblr term.
Or just say blacks instead of African-Americans.

Just chance the name already and end this stupid thing.
I'm sure you can find a much better name than "Redskins" anyway. I wonder if this will finally compelle the Comish to put more pressure on the owner who says he has "native american friends" (anyone who says "I have *insert race I'm insulting* friends" is almost always racist).

Liberals would celebrate, and conservatives would scramble for the moral high ground, decrying those "heartless, hypocritical leftists" for tarnishing the death of a "great man" and "a man who loved his country, and stood up for what he believed in."
People disagree with him, but I don't think anyone wants the man to die. And if anything, the conservatives are more afraid of him than the liberals are. No one there likes him because at first they brushed him off as a joke and laughed, and now those same people are terrified he may actually win their nomination, and potentially president. Tell ya what, if he wins most states in Super Tuesday, I say there is no stopping him. Cruz and Rubio are managing horrible campaigns were they're thinking 2nd is better for whatever reason... and Rubio is even more than likely to lose in his home state. Cruz on the other hand just got robbed of his base, because Evangelicals would rather have someone who actually has a message (albeit a kinda vague one), as opposed to someone just quoting bible verses.

What will your vote be, Meta?
I'll probably vote to leave.
But why? I'm honestly curious what the benefits are to leaving, as compared to staying with the new deal they're working out.

Did I also see Seath's arm at 0:27?
Ehhhh that's being awfully generous. That arm could be plenty of anything.

Looks too much like Dark Souls 2. Too much grey and character looks as light as a feather.
Nothing will ever recapture the magic of Dark Souls.
...It looks nothing like Dark Souls 2. If anything it looks more like Bloodborne. Character is also light because his weight.

Probably the British, but history has shown the superior technologically advanced nation will always cause heavy heavy casualties.
Look at Cortez and his Spanish Conquistadors vs the Aztecs.

I like how you can't make an argument like we're not on 4chan. Get the fuck out with this reeeee bullshit. Makes you look like a fucking retard. Pretend like you're an adult for a second.
Everything Republicans do is about controlling the people. Abortion. War. Gay marriage. Spying. Try to justify it all you want, but it conflicts with their claim that they want smaller government and freedom.
"I'm not going to even think about what you've said. Instead I will attack you for explaining things in simplistic and creative terminology because it comes from a website I dislike, and restate the claims that you refuted".
You're easily our worst poster.
But what you said is fucking wrong. If Republicans didn't want to control people, they wouldn't support policies that control people, retard.
I think you're mixing up "big government" with "controlling people". There is a difference there. Controlling people is far too vague a thing and crosses into all sorts of issues on both sides of the party. For example, Republicans say they're all for small government until they want to impose state/nation wide anti-abortion laws. Even Rand Paul pointed out how hypocritical they are in that regard.

shoving the "muh reproductive rights" card does nothing.
Ah, we've hit that point of the night it seems
