Fuck slavery.

It makes me feel like you'd rather virtue signal about the long gone past instead of admitting that as a leftist you and your shitty parties are 100% aligned with present-day slavers like Muslims and Chinese.
As for the Confederates, they believed that America wasn't suiting their desires and they wanted government changed completely to suit them instead of just moving away. Sounds a lot like you.

It’s not that far in the distant past when you guys are the ones constantly talking about Democrats in 1860 as if it were yesterday

I don’t like political Islam or China

It doesn't matter what you "like." You support both and worse. Your words and emotions are worthless. Your actions are all that count, and you act in 100% favor of slavery and slave holders while pointlessly denouncing a political movement dead 150 years for some groupthink virtue points. Joke.

So when Trump supports Medicare, it's good politics, but when Democrats support it, it's slavery?

When Trump supports it, he supports slavery, just like you. However, as he has done with food stamps and foreign aid, he's been gradually reducing the transfer of resources from the diligent to the indigent. I would prefer a complete end to a gradual one, but it is vastly superior to your desire to increase slavery.

Words and emotions are not pointless but are necessarily the foundation of political discourse.

Trump is one of the strongest supporters of Saudi Arabia and other Arab states with dubious human rights records that we've had as president for a long time. The way he ran interference for the Saudis on the Khashoggi butchery was shocking to witness.

And: he's not really as anti-China as you think. Yes, Trump wants to apply pressure as part of his trade war, but he is more than happy to look the other way when it comes to China's human rights abuses. Trump has time and time again expressed admiration and awe for the way Xi Jinping has consolidated power in China, and other strongmen around the world.

So your "nuanced" yet undeniable support for slavery can be summed up as "but but but Trump!" Wonderful. Keep dialing up those excuses for your hypocrisy. It's the leftist way.

I literally created an entire meme against slavery in both the present and past day

But if you want to post some good anti-slavery content to ImgFlip to show your bona fides on this issue then be my guest

It's bullshit, because you actually want people to work to enrich others. All leftists do, it's your core doctrine. You can make all the virtue signals you like, but it won't change the reality that you're fine with robbing workers at gunpoint and transferring the fruits of their labor to those who did no work to earn it. That's slavery, and you're all in.

Taxation is not slavery. It's a necessary and patriotic part of the social compact. 3jn60o.jpg (click to show)

See, you're fine with slavery. You just call it a "tax" to soothe your cognitive dissonance when I point out that it is neither consensual nor a utility to those being taxed. It is a transfer of produce from a worker to a non-worker, no different than a serf to a landlord or a cottonpicker to a plantation owner. Unadulterated slavery, and you love it.

So you're against the entire apparatus of the welfare state: including Social Security and Medicare?

Yes, because unlike you, I'm actually against slavery. If it isn't consensual, it isn't charity, it's just theft. If the theft is institutional and enforced with violence, it's slavery.

If it isn't slavery, why isn't it voluntary? Let me guess; us slaves be too stupid to do it, so's we need massa to makes us do it sho'nuff

What do you think about this?

Of course he's going to appease the boomers. Everyone knows geezer welfare is the third rail of politics. Obamacare is half the reason why Trump's even president. The old useless leeches freaked out when he cut Mediscam and blamed every Democrat.

Or this

and they weren't quiet about it either,especially virginia.

Change "needs" to "desires"; D- for English.
Yes, desire to own slaves to pay their bills, just like leftists desire me to pay their bills. Amazing coincidence, isn't it.
