I have seen the slavery thing. But I'm sorry, the holocaust made Jews useful? Who said that and where? What the actual fuck?

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

A Fox News gremlin said it. Just google greg gutfeld.
It's on brand, and fucking despicable. I've heard him described as a less likeable Tucker Carlson
Jesus Christ … less likable than tucker clansman.
Hey Georgia! You're seceding and you say "states' rights" are the issue. What does "states rights" mean? Which "rights" are you fussing about?
For the last ten years we have had numerous and serious causes of complaint against our non-slave-holding confederate States with reference to the subject of African slavery.
Hey Mississippi, what is the Confederate cause about?
Our position is thoroughly identified with the institution of slavery — the greatest material interest of the world.
Hey Texas, you joined the Union recently; what were you looking for?
[Texas] was received as a commonwealth holding, maintaining and protecting the institution known as negro slavery — the servitude of the African to the white race within her limits — a relation that had existed from the first settlement of her wilderness by the white race, and which her people intended should exist in all future time.
Okay, we get it. You're really into the slavery thing. Surely none of your descendants will deny that, right?
Let’s give Texas back to Mexico. Please.
Holy fuck Texas. It sounds like you’re claiming the people you enslave want to be enslaved forever and ever. I can’t even write the words without feeling dirty. Not even mississippi goes that far.
That didn't happen.
And if it did, it wasn't that bad.
And if it was, that's not a big deal.
And if it is, that's not my fault.
And if it was, I didn't mean it.
And if I did, you deserved it.

Pretty soon they'll be calling slavery an unpaid internship.
I agree, but in regards to the post itself, and especially the deep breath bs, that's exactly the type of shit redhats make fun of liberals for.
This post isn't going to convince anyone, it's only going to solidify the feelings the redhats already have. It's the same as "actually..." to them and it doesn't matter what comes after, you've already lost them.
