    Your "facts" are hidden behind a pdf file that likely has malware.

    The Irish slaves myth is a pseudohistorical narrative that conflates the penal transportation and indentured servitude of Irish people during the 17th and 18th centuries, with the hereditary chattel slavery experienced by the forebears of the African diaspora. Some white nationalists, and others who want to minimize the effects of hereditary chattel slavery on Africans and their descendants, have used this false equivalence to deny racism against African Americans

    It's a fair opinion. What is also a fact is st Patrick isn't even Irish, also the first Irish were black, hence the term "black Irish"

    the case with the myth of "Irish slaves," an ahistorical reimagining of real events weaponized by racists and conspiracy theorists before the Web and now reaching vast new audiences online.

    In short, the "Irish slaves" myth argues that the first slaves brought to the Americas were Irish, that they were white, and that this fact, covered up by liberal historians, undermines the legacy of the African slave trade and proves that modern theories of racial inferiority are true.

    Predictably, this revisionism has attracted Neo-Nazis, White Nationalists, Neo-Confederates, and even Holocaust deniers -southern poverty law centre.


    Have it bro

    Context is everything. it does not condone what happens, but it does explain it. Yet conservatives fail at using context appropriately. Apparently, ya'll be playing truancy when that lesson was being taught when you were young.

    It wasn't just 300 Spartans there, although legend has it that is what they did. El Cid, the one who fought for both the Moors and the Christians? that El Cid? How about the Finns who fought against Russia or how about the Finns who fought against Nazi Germany? Or both Chaing Kai Shek and Mao Tse Tung who fought the Japanese or Ho Chi Mihm who fought against the Japanese and the West for their "invasion?" And I can give a list of other heroes too.

    Context is something that is needed when talking about slavery or any other historical event. It goes beyond the numbers. It does not condone what is happened, but it does explain it. Much like the context of God, Gold, and Guns with the slavery of Native Americans by the Church, for instance.

    Nope none of that is what I was making point of. Justify it however you like, my point was and still is that slavery is not an accepted practice in the U.S. whereas it is in many countries legally.. The WHY is not important to me, but the hypocrisy is ;)

    Well then, counter with your own "Trusted sources" ;) I'm willing to bet the same countries I have provide via links will still be the same countries that "TODAY" legally practice slavery..

    But we both know why you have not produced a single thing other than redirects ;)

    BTW, I have not linked a PDF, that was your last excuse. Something about your laptop LMFAO..

    If the DeSantis bill includes removing pictures of black people from the classroom, then you should have no problem quoting the relevant wording from the bill! :roflol:

    What did I say that makes you think that I am not outraged by it?

    What's wrong with nationalism? Seems that you are thinking about WHITE nationalism.

    People like me? What the hell makes you think that you know me?

    Great! You agree with the central part of the bill! It was this central part of the bill which was misrepresented by the SCUM leftist media, making gullible people such as yourself think that the bill bans history lessons that cause white students discomfort. You have been SUCKERED by the SCUM leftist media, not for the first time I'm sure! The extract from the bill below once again for your benefit:

    "An individual, by virtue of his or her race or sex, does not bear responsibility for actions committed in the past by other members of the same race or sex. An individual should not be made to feel discomfort, guilt, anguish, or any other form of psychological distress on account of his or her race." https://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2022/148/BillText/Filed/PDF

    I agree 100%

    What do you mean "thin-skinned by their own choices?"

    What the hell are you talking about? You said "YOU don't want" multiple times. You're saying that I don't want certain things. So once again, when did say ANY of that? Can you quote me? Here is what you said in case you forgot:

    Simple question: Is racism inherent in the law and legal institutions of the United States? If not, when was the last time you believe that this was the case?

    "SHE?" If you look back, you'll see that my post was in reply to @Torus34.

    it can be, as I pointed out, we have come a long way

    a law that favored black people would be racist
    a law that favored white people would be racist

    we had to change the constitution as it favored white people as an example

    Are you sure about that? Because you said:

    Well like you said: the basis of these laws was racism. So why the hell do we need CRT to explain why those laws were enacted?

    Sure, but that doesn't answer the question. I did not ask if it CAN or CANNOT. Is racism inherent in the law and legal institutions of the United States RIGHT NOW? If not, when was the last time you believe that this was the case?
