    Has anyone noticed the weird surge in pro-slavery sentiment? I’ve seen people, including black propel, defending slavery recently and it’s mind blowing! They claim that enslaved people learned work ethic and important life skills, that some slave owners treated the enslaved like family. These same arguments are being made about the concentration camps during the holocaust too!

      Ron DeSuckMyDick in Florida signed off on legislation that changed the way slavery is talked about in Florida schools. That’s where a lot of this seems to have started.

        Didn’t DeFascist also make it a thing that teachers can/should show PragerU videos in class?
