Ever hear of the Haitian Massacre?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1804_Haiti_massacre

"At the time of the U.S. Civil War, a major pretext for southern whites, most of whom did not own slaves, to support slave-owners (and ultimately fight for the Confederacy) was fear of a genocide similar to the Haitian Massacre of 1804. This was explicitly referred to in Confederate discourse as a reason for secession"

No I have not!!!!! Wow!!!!! This explains everything!!! So stunning and brave. That’s truly fucking sickening. They tortured and killed entire families house to house. White lives matter. That’s literally my worst fear ever. Funny how we never hear about that in our history books. You make one mention of it and REEEEEE
