Hold on, people. This guy on the internet just brought to my attention that quote “there are way, way, way, way too many gays on TV now” so everybody just calm down.

If any of what you were arguing were true would academics be asserting that these textbooks are problematic in the manner and extent to which they address American slavery? Particularly in the context of US public education historically proving woefully inadequate in addressing: the contributions of black people, the…

I do dumb shit all the time. No way I should have had Lucky Charms for lunch but here I am.

There are zero consequences for her behavior so, no, she doesn’t learn anything.

Re: all that nomad on the steppes stuff - lolwhut? What does that have to do with the economic motives of American slavery which are fully understood as integral to stoking America’s empirial aspirations? What needs to be taught is the fullness of the evil of said aspirations: The daily conditions of slaves. The…

I don’t follow you. Slavery was an act of war/genocide not a agricultural project and should be described as such. Being the economic engine which transformed a upstart colony into a global superpower is not merely a “bunch of free labor” and the quite knowable dollar amount of that free labor is essential in…

You can accurately teach it by pointing out the trillions of dollars in free labor America received from slave hands. That puts it in perspective. Describing it as if it were an economic development project as opposed to a genocidal war crime is a disservice.

I get what you’re trying to say but there’s no need really. Slave owners, by virtue of being slave owners, were universally horrible. There were no “kind” masters for they were masters first nor any slaves who were “treated well” so long as they were slaves.

Perhaps I’m too close to the topic but I can’t see an end to the damage wrought by glossing over the sheer scale and scope of the atrocity that was the slave trade as well as the unending daily horrors of slavery. It’s origins are not mystery to me: white people were hella racist and lazy apparently because they went…

​​​​”Southern vigilante groups”?

Why blow part of the budget mocapping some Hollywood types when they’re going to be wearing helmets 90% the time? Any Firefly fan has probably played one of the five other Halo games already so who are they going after Castle fans?

Jesus Christ, am I dead? I’ve seen two of those people before today.

Nope. I got nothing.

Pretty sure these are all the same person. js

Holy shit have I never seen any of these people before in my life.

Gruden’s gonna be pissed when Cousins gets used up by mid-season and they’ve got zero offense.

The only thing more disturbing than this video is the fact that 1992 Billy Ray Cyrus looks exactly like 2015 Sam Worthington.

How many times is he going to admit to statutory rape on video?

White privilege incarnate: afforded continuous opportunities to demonstrate own ignorance/stupidity/racism.

Squishy-faced nitwit.
