The south.
The Nuremberg Laws were Jim crow but with the one drop rule crossed out and Hitlers name written at the top.
Black GIs came back from liberating Europe, to be lynched for being 'too uppity'.
If it wasn't for the south desperately trying to drag us into their filth we wouldn't have had W, we wouldn't have Trump, we could have had universal Healthcare and just generally not sold everything out to the oligarchs.
The rise of the United States was due to the destruction of the south as a political power, allowing the rest of the country to grow, for instance the transcontinental railroad.
Cancer can go into remission, but it doesn't always stay there.
Every single Confederate officer and politician should have been hanged until dead.
Absolutely not!
What kind of message does that send?!
We should have given all the slavers to their slaves, and then just walked away.
Let nature quietly take its course.
That's a garbage take. In very few states do Republicans win by majorities greater than 60/40. So those 40% of southerners actively voting against these policies should be nuked?
Atlanta should be reduced to ash because surrounding counties voted red? Hell Georgia has flipped back and forth recently and is nearly a 50/50 split. Even florida had 42% of voters vote against Trump. That is millions of people.
This is truly a really bad take. If we just mandated voting and mailed everyone a ballot this issue would likely solve itself. It would be cheaper than nukes too
My family moved me there in high school, I managed to escape after college.
It gets better, that's all I can say, just keep your head down and try to survive.
They're monsters, but hopefully you can leave soon.
The problem with that solution is it makes us no better than they are.
Well, a little better, we'd be saving the world from their filth and evil.
But personally, let's replace them with hardworking, decent Mexicans, who seem to make such better Americans because they don't take it for granted.
But the south is just destroying us as a nation, again, and our mercy is why, we needed to hand over the entire ruling class of the south over to their slaves and just walked away.
160 years of evil and suffering because of a moment of mercy, how unfortunate.
I don't think they would take them.
I just figured we need to build a wall, Mexico too, I'm sure they'd be glad to pitch in for their side to keep the worthless meth trash off their lawn.
