The majority of black slaves in the western trade were sold into Brazil, and the west Indies (85%). Sugar Cane was the big crop for sugar that was a top dollar commodity at the time. Only 15% of slaves made it to the United States. Very little is said historically about the working condition, and treatment in those other areas which were far worse then working cotton, or the conditions in the U.S.
Slave owners used to keep their slaves in line by threatening to send them down to the sugarcane plantations. I've read that it was cheaper to buy slaves and work them to death than worry about feeding them a decent diet.
It was Arnold Bertram who wrote on “the rarely discussed phenomenon of Jamaica's black and coloured slave owners”. According to Bertram, “In 1833, the year the British Parliament passed the Emancipation Act, an estimate of Jamaica's population showed 16,600 whites, 31,300 free coloured, 11,000 free blacks, and 311,000 enslaved Africans and people of African descent. Interestingly, the free coloured and black population included the owners of some 70,000 enslaved Africans (R Montgomery Martin, 1854).” ('Jamaica's black and coloured slave owners', The Gleaner, August 1 2017)
So when and where can we start buying slaves? I have been saving gold. I got this really big cotton plantation to start up again and I want to recreate the movie Django but for real. I can't wait to start whipping my slaves and feeding them to dogs and forcing them to fight and kill each other. It is not rape if it is your property!
Linguistically, they're in the same group as Persians, the English and Russians. Distinguishing people by continent rather than genetic makeup or culture is a bizarre way of going about it.
I told this liberal that Kamala’s family owned slaves.
His response was “if we don’t know the relationship between the slave and slave owner, it’s not fair to make assumptions about whether or not this was bad. Many slaves consented and worked willfully.”
I went diving in Bonnaire a few years back. They had a bunch of salt flats that were the island's main source of commerce once upon a time.
You can go there and see the old slave pens. These were 3 foot high stucco buildings with a small opening and maybe 2-3 air slits. 2 grown men could have laid in there somewhat comfortably if you ignore the blistering heat and humidity. They used to sleep 6 slaves/hut. I've seen nicer dog cages.
The inhumanity of that will forever scar my memory.
Please do! I think Americans should realize how awful slavery was in other parts of the world rather than just beating the dead horse of American Slavery is Evillllllll
Ironically Abraham Lincoln wanted to send them all back. He was assassinated before his plan could come to fruition by a southernor in favor of slave ownership. Womp womp
Just an FYI, Slavery IS still legal. Read the ammendents. It says slavery is illegal EXCEPT for punishment of crime.
"Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction."
It doesn't matter what it says when the government (LEOs, ATF, FBI, SCOTUS, etc) are willing to use all their power to enforce their interpretation of it. The only way to counter that is with an equal measure of power.
I always thought it would be funny to LARP as a SJW and hold a sign that says “We should have picked our own cotton” to see if I could get away with it
What, you really think they're going to make black people be the slaves? Have you even been paying attention??? You can get your cotton-sack over against the shack there; workday starts at 5am, boy.
Involuntary servitude, right? But if that servitude is only partial, like in a percentage of your work or wealth, then it is just fine for the government to seize it. Taxes are slavery.
It's not about the portion, 100% of a slave's labor wasn't taken. It's about being a citizen of the nation and the government belonging to you. A concept subverted and abandoned by foreign, anti-American libertarians and anarchists.
If you're a sovereign and it's being taken by a foreign entity, yeah. That's theft.
Make sure you don't try to declare sovereignty and claim ownership over things that belong to a pre-existing nation, though. Because that's also theft.
How do people on the left not have a problem with that? Do they just trust the government won't come after the 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th or the afore mentioned 13th amendments?
You are full of crap Biden. If you don't like the current amendments then you can offer up new amendments and try to get the necessary 2/3 of the states to enact it. Other than that, keep your hands off the Bill of Rights and the other amendments.
I guess Kamala's family must have some cotton that needs to be picked
Most likely it’d be sugar cane, considering her family is Jamaican
Which is actually one of the most deadly crops for slaves to work with :D

I think she was an Asian American last week
If you consider Indians asians. I do not. I was taught that term referred to Koreans Japanese, Chinese, and other Southeast Asians
She'll identify as Indian again next week.
The only thing she hasn't claimed is to be a proud American.
Linguistically, they're in the same group as Persians, the English and Russians. Distinguishing people by continent rather than genetic makeup or culture is a bizarre way of going about it.
Which continent is India in?
What continent is the Ukraine on? The term is ethnic not continent based. Why do you need to redefine terms? Losing some argument.
Subcontinent: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_subcontinent

My sides
That sounds like something a Southern Democrat would have said in the 1860's.
It sounds like something a modern democrat would say in 2020s
But only when it's pointed out that slavery is much more complex than white man evil.
So glad I left that plantation.

Gotta be more specific. Are you talking about her Jewish family?
Her Indian family?
Her Asian family?
Her Black family?
She has Jewish family, other than through her husband?
If AOC can claim being Jewish, I’m surprised Kamala hasn’t come out with tales of her Bat Mitzvah
She was jamming out to Streisand and Midler before 2pac and snoop.
I wouldn't be surprised at this point to hear about her Filipino, Dagestani and Aboriginal roots.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
The early settlers should have picked their own cotton. We would be building colonies in Mars by now.

I still think she and Hunter are banging which is why she was put in as VP
Nah she's to old for him.
Hunter goes after anything with a vagina. Age is only a number to him.

Came to post this, and to say I’m surprised some woke judges haven’t been sentencing wypipo to slavery.
Don't give the FBI fags ideas.
They don't have to sentence us to slavery.
The Fed and IRS have that covered.
Honestly, lifers should be slaves.
That is likely why it was worded this way. No one (then) wanted to free murders sentenced to hard labor.
They basically are, working for like .13$/hr
Being a Trump supporter will soon be a crime.
THIS is why they want to take our guns.
So they can enslave us.
PERIOD
That's after the depopulation plan is completed.
And kill us: https://metallicman.com/laoban4site/what-the-progressive-liberals-have-in-store-for-conservatives/
So true! 'The dehumanization and objectification of political adversaries is always used in the preparation and justification for mass murder.'
Wasn’t that the plot of the show Seinfeld was writing on the show Seinfeld...?
Thank you for bringing this up. It infuriates me that this is never brought up.
More realistically, he opened the door to suing the press for defamation and ending their hiding behind 1A.
He doesn't need to control the press, he can get them locked up like Obama https://www.thenation.com/article/archive/obamas-assault-press/
Most of the corporate media wouldn't disparage his administration anyway, he is a puppet of the Social Corporatist state.
Don't be dense. I meant he opened the door, unintentionally, to conservatives suing the press. That wasn't difficult to comprehend.
My rights are Inalienable and Endowed by my Creator. Xiden can go suck a chode.
When it clearly says shall not be infringed. If that's not an absolute, I don't know what is.
It doesn't matter what it says when the government (LEOs, ATF, FBI, SCOTUS, etc) are willing to use all their power to enforce their interpretation of it. The only way to counter that is with an equal measure of power.
they're tyrants!
Force is the ultimate arbiter.
Funny thing is Joe would be totally OK with putting them back on the plantation according to his own past quotes....
But votes are a more valuable harvestable commodity than cotton in 2021.
For now. Give it 2.5 years
"They are gonna put you back in chains".... Another gaff... We will put you in chains, is what he meant
Seriously, imagine enslaving the least dependable and least effective work force on the planet
I always thought it would be funny to LARP as a SJW and hold a sign that says “We should have picked our own cotton” to see if I could get away with it
What, you really think they're going to make black people be the slaves? Have you even been paying attention??? You can get your cotton-sack over against the shack there; workday starts at 5am, boy.
Remember, in counter-clown world democrats are the real racists
Always have been.
Involuntary servitude, right? But if that servitude is only partial, like in a percentage of your work or wealth, then it is just fine for the government to seize it. Taxes are slavery.
This is why they needed to add the 16th amendment.
Later amendments, take precedence over the former, whenever there is any conflict.
Is this true?
The first federal income tax was challenged and people were winning in the courts. This was in the late 1800's after the 13th amendment was in place.
This was before 1913.
So, they decided to enact and ratify the 16th amendment to make it the final word in the supreme law of the land.
Look it up.
It's not about the portion, 100% of a slave's labor wasn't taken. It's about being a citizen of the nation and the government belonging to you. A concept subverted and abandoned by foreign, anti-American libertarians and anarchists.
I agree with you. Any portion being taken by force is too much
If you're a sovereign and it's being taken by a foreign entity, yeah. That's theft.
Make sure you don't try to declare sovereignty and claim ownership over things that belong to a pre-existing nation, though. Because that's also theft.
Nothing i create or trade the product of my work for belongs to any pre-existing nation.
As long as you're not a member of that nation or utilizing its resources, infrastructure, or any other properties or services in order to produce it.
But if that's the case then you're already separate from the nation and the issue doesn't arise, so you're all good.
I don't need permission to own what I produce.
If you produce it in your own nation with your own resources, sure.
Otherwise you're just an impudent squatter.
Wait... did he really say that?!?! Sauce??? Pls
YES. He said exactly this, in the past few days.
Bye bye 16th, 17th, and 19th. Those 3 have led us down this shit path.
God, I fucking cringe every time I look at that used car salesman smile.
Yup.
But this time they won't be black.
Just everyone poor
America is no longer a Republic; it's a Mafia State.
Really? That would be a weird thing to do
These fags keep trying to play God but they are not prepared for when God arrives through the rightfully fed up People.
Slavery is already on the table. What do you think human trafficking and open borders mean?
Geezus, yes they are, that’s why they are fundamental. Also, people who hold office swear to protect and uphold these fundamental rules.
Trump was impeached for saying far, far less.
Democrats and their slavery!
That certainly is the implication, isn't it?
A long of amendments were added before some states would agree to join the Union. So changing this would break that compact and dissolve the Union.
So his oath to uphold the constitution is a crock of shit?!
Also voting rights for minorities and women.
We are definitely overdue to revisit the 19th amendment.
Brilliant. That is exactly how the Leftist MSM would have characterized President Trump saying the exact same thing.
And quartering soldiers. Looks like DC residents need to tidy up their guest rooms
After everything its Joe that's gonna "put y'all back in chains"
That is what he said would happen.
19th
We could do without the 19th. That is what started us towards this dystopian mess.
Joe thinking of taking the right to vote away from women.
They really want to remove the 22nd Amendment.
Imagine, for a second, if Trump said this. Imagine the outcry and hysteria.
Lawl, we wouldn't hear then end of it.... Round the clock coverage
What do you think the Unemployment system is? Democrats evolved physical slavery into economic slavery.
Economic slavery and involuntary servitude have been a staple of the Democratic law-making machine for many, many years.
Did he actually fucking say that?
Yes he did, in the Presser he had yesterday. I honestly can't stand listening to him talk... but I do it for the meme.
How do people on the left not have a problem with that? Do they just trust the government won't come after the 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th or the afore mentioned 13th amendments?
What a bunch of retards.
Yep, they do. They have no concept of what happens when the shoe is in the other foot.
Yeah, during his gun control speech.
End Women's Suffrage!
Women have been suffraging for too long. Its cruel.
Looks like slavery’s back on the menu, boys!
He's an idiot. Isn't that the point of the constitution. It is absolute. You cant change it.
Sweet. When can we order slaves for Wal-Mart grocery pick up?
Please no. Importing blacks is how we fundamentally lost this country in the first place.
CMON MAN
What the fuck???
Repeal the 19th
Biden is evil incarnate.
100% this. Look at his wicked Joker grin. Gives me the creeps to lay eyes on him.
Totally fine with this
The 25th Amendment: Am I a joke to you?
You are full of crap Biden. If you don't like the current amendments then you can offer up new amendments and try to get the necessary 2/3 of the states to enact it. Other than that, keep your hands off the Bill of Rights and the other amendments.
Well hey, maybe we can finally get rid of the 16th. :P
