This is everything I expected it to be, a complete pile of 💩... I'll attempt to compost into usable information in a thread 👇👇 theatlantic.com/amp/article/56…

I would love to see where slavery is enshrined or even mentioned in the constitution prior to the 13th that specifically outlaws its existence.
It is not.
It is not by design.
What the author doesn’t want you to know is many wanted slavery abolished right from the framing.

To form a nation, that issue had to wait. Immeasurable care was taken to never mention slavery, specifically to not allow any subsequent generation to construe slavery as protected or endorsed in anyway.

However, any language specifically banning slavery at the time of framing; half the Nation would not form. Natural rights are self evident. Just as it was said in our initial founding document.

“We hold these truths to be self evident, ALL MEN are created equal”.

Hard to argue with that.

Wouldn’t be long before enough folks step up and point out… “Um, aren’t those slaves… people?”… “well gosh, don’t they have the same rights then?”…
“Yes. Yes they do, thank you for noticing, let’s remedy that shall we?”

Truth always comes to light.
This was perfectly understood and was the strategy in forming our free nation. Had our nation not formed, conceived in liberty, every subsequent action becomes impossible.

Did racist exist during the founding. Yes Racist exist at all times in human history. It’s a dark form of competition and COMPETITION is baked into the human DNA.
It’s an unhealthy, ugly form, but IS a from of competition none the less.

Jefferson is a common punching bag of the left.
A complicated man, in modern times he has been branded a hypocrite. Against slavery, he was a slave holder. This is a touchy subject. Let’s let Thomas explain his position: 👇

“But, as it is, we have the wolf by the ear, and we can neither hold him, nor safely let him go. Justice is in one scale, and self-preservation in the other.”

Jefferson, aided by ageless wisdom, penned the very words that not only expressed the propose in forming our nation, but indeed injected the ‘poison pill’ to settle the ultimate dispute on the side of liberty and not tyranny.

Slavery is tyranny in its most tyrannical form.

Everyone is welcome to their opinion but to deny Jefferson’s intricate role in the ultimate ending of slavery in our nation is quite the travesty to our rich American history. #FactsMatter

It’s no coincidence that Progressive icon (and true racist extraordinaire) Woodrow Wilson instructed the American people, “If you want to understand the real Declaration of Independence, do not repeat the preface.”

Really? You mean, don’t read the whole point to out nation part? The poison pill that guaranteed slavery could never exist beyond a generation or two...
So the "real" Declaration is a list of 18th century grievances??? No, not at all.

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed, by their Creator, with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.”

That’s the poison pill I’ve been referring. I cannot think of words more antithetical to slavery. In a nation based on this principle… such tyrannical practices cannot possibly exist or continue long. And it did not.

The hypocrisy of slavery, the fact its very definition is absolutely antithetical to our nations founding principles and must be stopped immediately was not missed on that days contemporaries in America. Guess what...

76 years, 1 month and a few days spanned the stain of slavery that sullied our Constitution, by virtue of its coexistence...

Nearly 620,000 Americans gave their lives in the conflict to right that great wrong.
Please, have a little respect for those men and their scarfice.

Side note: with the Kavanagh hearings and this (transparent) instance to genuflect to judicial precedent… what about: Dred Scott v. Sandford? Plessy v. Ferguson? Or Korematsu v. UNITED States? 💥

Wear a poncho posing these question to liberals. Heads will explode. 💯

Like the 🐂💩 loaded in this "article" they spew this 💩 mostly unchallenged. When the obvious counter points are made and flaws pointed out... Very often they have no answer for it. That how you identify parrots. They're every were. No parrot holds under scrutiny. None.

It’s funny this article attempts to position itself as an independent observer, noting troubling observations of division.

😒This article is rampant in propaganda intended to further the divide. ➗

The irony is completely lost on them, I have no doubt.

The inaccuracies coupled with blatant untruths with the specific design to inflame negative passions in every demographic.

In other words, these articles are designed to p*ss everyone off.

The attacks of property rights. Damned fools don’t fully understand what property entails. Private property and liberty are inextricably linked! One cannot exist without the other!
That’s no hyperbole, that’s a fact.
Personal property extended well beyond material possessions.

Your mind,
your essence,
your thoughts,
your ideas,
your opinions… and so much more
all are essential, sacred, private property to the individual.

Speech, either expressed written or verbal is the only interface from our inner mind to the outer world...

The importance of free speech is coming a bit more into focus now yes?
A pervious thread queued at Madison discussing private property. 👇

Some actually think the country is founded racism. This enflames negative passions.
Some are angry over the complete falsehoods put forth by these progressive propagandists. This enflames negative passions.

Negative passions in a simple term: anger.

Anger divides. Conservative principles are unifying. We recognize the individual and the individuals rights. It doesn’t get more inclusive than that.

The progressives, the leftist… they see groups. Every group is to think a certain way. Should you differ from this, you are jettisoned. Only conformity is permitted.

This article is clearly written from the leftist perspective laden in alike propaganda. Lamenting the current tribalism they assisted in promoting, all while sowing new seeds of division. How exhausting. 😒

I hope this thread properly composted that giant pile of 💩 into some usable fertilizer 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍
