To my knowledge, America was the first openly multicultural society that actively fought against the democrats and successfully ended slavery. I’d be okay fighting Africa to end slavery there too. That’s at least where black slavery started and continues. And to say nothing of the fact that pretty much every older culture had slaves of many racial backgrounds.

Technically there have been more ‘white’ than black slaves throughout human history. Whites and blacks came together to end it in America, winning the fight against the democrat party that turned into the Civil War.

The white germanic vikings gave 0 fucks about enslaving white celts, white slavs, and other conquered white germanics. It's almost like racism is a fake social construct and tribalism is real and been around since before we climbed outta trees.

The word "slaves" comes from the word "slav."

They call it 'territorial' when animals fight each other. Just a part of nature.

And the first country founded on the idea that the power of government was derived by the people and not the other way around.

Rights derived from God to people. Government was just there to manage, now they are our daddy

Europeans were a bit ahead of the mark on banning slaves, actually. The South was one of the last Western nation's to abolish it, mainly because their economy was almost entirely based on slave picked cash crops like cotton or tobacco.

Edit: actually I'm a bit mistaken, England and the US ban it at roughly the same time. New York bans it as early as 1799, just a decade after the Revolution was won. England bans it in 1807. There's a few slaves in northern states as late as 1840, but their numbers are in the hundreds... Nothing like the millions in the south as of 1804.

Kinda breaks the whole "nation built on slavery" myth, though you can certainly argue that the colonies were built on slavery. We already know imperialism is bad though, that's why we oppose Globalists.

On top of that, cant you argue that the foundations that slaves built were destroyed during the civil war?

If they are truly moderate, they are considered heretics by the real Muslims.

Moderate Muslims are just the people who like to go to book club but don't actually read the book

Nah, no fighting to end slavery another world away. Let Europe deal with it. I'm tired of sending Americans into harms way when other "allies" are right there and turning a blind eye to it.
