Definitely? How so?

I’ll bet you’re projecting and they’ll still be together 10 years from now.

You want to know a rich person? Watch how they treat their staff. She's every bit as awful as her detractors say. Doesn't change the fact that she's right about Windsor racism, but it does dampen any desire I might have to join her fan club.

It is possible that she has some mental issues.  And parallel to that, but independent, the most violent and racist colonial power in human history may still have some racist undertones in their bloodlines.  I dunno, the Empire is vast.  It contains multitudes.  

Yeah, people just think the Windsors are racist, but imagine if Harry had went to Ireland and married a fucking bog jumper.    You’d see some serious shit then.

A couple of years ago, I took a vacation to Victoria BC.  I had to fly into Seattle, then drive to Port Angeles to take the ferry over.  I was reminded that when you get a few miles outside of the Seattle metro, you're basically in rainy Alabama.

Slaves were never $2.00 - more like $40,000 - $50,000 (adjusting for inflation), and I bet that idiot could not have afforded one in whatever era he was in.

Very few people actually owned slaves, which makes the whole Civil War even more fucking stupid, since those idiots were bamboozled into thinking that somebody they too could own their own slave or whatever, all the while not realizing that slavery was hurting them financially as well.

Wait.  I want to make sure I understand.  This guy, who lives in Washington, thinks that a) the Floyd family receiving money as a judgment for their family member dying is unfair because the price of black slaves should be used as the barometer?  I mean...someone explain this to me.  That can't be real.

Nah, they knew. Just before he died my great-grandfather took down his dad's life story. The old guy had to speak it because he was illiterate. Came up a sharecropper, then was an overseer, and then made money enough to get a Mississippi tanyard and bought two slaves -- a married couple. He was doing pretty well when the war broke out and he lost almost everything. Anyway, he told his son he hated slavery, and not only because guys like him had to compete against free in the labor market, but also because if you did not own slaves you were ipso facto trash.

Before the war his younger brother married up into a slaveholding family and was thereby enough a big shot to captain a company of home guards, and drafted his older brother -- my gg-grandfather, who was then in his 40s -- into service. He tromped around Mississippi for a few weeks and then deserted. He explained that, while he was a Southern man, and loved the South, he was not a "hot-headed partisan" for slavery, because he hated the system that had kept him down for so long and then bankrupted him. (Which, I am sad to say, is not to say he was woke; he frankly stated that he moved his family to the edge of the Texas frontier in 1869 to "get away from the Negroes" who were then briefly in control of Reconstruction Mississippi.)

There were hundreds of thousands of men like him who fought out of some combination of peer pressure, a sense of being invaded, at the barrel of a gun (after 1862, desertion was potentially a capital offense), or just because they wanted adventure. Some, like the Irish-born General Patrick Cleburne, actually believed it was about states rights and put that to the test -- he drafted a proposal to arm and enlist the slaves, whose service would grant them freedom. After all, he said, are we or are we not defending our confederation of states against a tyrannical union?  

He and about dozen co-signers had the balls to send it up the chain of command all the way to Jefferson Davis's desk. He was lucky to escape the gallows. All the way up and down the chain of command people thought Cleburne had gone insane, and Davis and subordinates are on the record as saying that arming and freeing the slaves would defeat the whole purpose of the war. (It's a great trump card in arguments against stubborn Lost Causers.) Cleburne was a complete badass in the field -- he'd earned the nickname Stonewall of the West -- but he started getting passed over for promotions by less-qualified officers after that, one of whom ordered him and his men into a foolish charge at the Battle of Franklin where Cleburne died at the head of his men.

But yeah, there were some idiots who fought believing that some day they might be Mr Bigshot Plantation Owner, but probably nothing like the majority. Hell, Lee said that as early as the Battle of Antietam, 30 percent of his army was AWOL. 

It didn't help that everyone knew that owners of 20 or more slaves were exempted from military service. Rich man's war, poor man's fight.

Nice to know who buys bullshittery from rags like The Daily Mail and other tabloids.

Tabloids that lost to Meghan Markle for invading her privacy and publishing verifiable lies and were ordered to pay millions and publish a front page apology and retraction.

The staff member she supposedly “bullied”? Was fired for cause. And if The Firm is so delicate and precious that emails at 5:00 AM cause them to feel bullied, then they need to get a real job.

But it’s always the “pushy” black woman’s fault.

Indeed. But I guess we don't look over our own continental shoulder. 

 

I will admit to a bit of indulgence on the leg in to LHR. It just seems right.

This step-porn craze has just gotta stop.  It's like every other clip on every other site.  So, I've heard.  From a distant relative.

Admittedly, I don't know much about the 'stop being gay when you're gay' industry, but I'd have to think it's a problematic business model when the president of the company can't stop ending up with a dick in his mouth.

Late to this one, but as a direct descendant of a Confederate cavalry officer who was famous, even admired, in his own day for a ridiculous reason, this is a fantastic post.

A small number of very wealthy individuals manage to convince a much larger number of poorer, uneducated individuals that they are one and the same and then spur them on to do their dirty work for mostly the benefit of the wealthy few.  I'm so glad we've advanced and don't have deplorable scenarios like that play out today!

All of this talk about wife beater Kyle Biedermann and how batshit crazy he is. 

Wouldn't it be hilarious to get about five really large African American men to open carry AR-15s into Biedermann's Ace Hardware store in Fredericksburg and just walk around looking for toggle bolts?

Does Ace Hardware know they have a secessionist as a franchisee?  I'd think they wouldn't want to be associated w/ radicals but, then again, that might be their bag.
