white people prohibited slavery

@BarronVon it's not that the slaves were slaves because they were black, but rather that it's easier to enslave people you don't look like, there are religious arguments saying blacks are inferior and not people

Yes but also started it

Yeah but Dems

Not literally started

I knoe

Know

Not Republicans

Slavery existed before

Egyptians enslaved races based on skin tone?

Which is your party @BarronVon

or mongols?

Nobody is saying that

We're saying it's an ideological idea to enslave another person

claiming that blacks were rounded up and put on ships literally admits that they were an inferior race incapable of defending themselves

republicans didnt exist until they were created to oppose slavery

Yep.

Black people were sold by richer black people

republicans freed the slaves

@gr

Republicans were socialists before lol

Republicans freed the slaves and then failed to do anything during FDR's presidency

Lincoln is a good Republican president

100yrs later?

lincoln is a marxist

@gr I had to explain to a work colleague the other day why blackface is offensive.

FDR?

why is blackface offensive

it's not offensive

FDR served 4 terms, if you go onto the GOP's website you see nothing on the Republican's timeline during his terms @BarronVon

white chicks the movie offended me

i’m going to wear blackface this halloween just for you

ill even carry around a watermelon

@alex. what does that have to do with Lincoln or slavery

As I remember they used to have adverts in America in which they depicted a black woman bleaching her face to make herself seem white.

On 1858 the Republican Party was a radical left-wing history. Karl Marx and Abraham Lincoln were allies against slavery. August Willich, Joseph Weydemeyer, and all kinds of Marxists were in the Union Army, working to smash the slavocracy

Adverts as in posters.

@BarronVon we were talking about parties and the transformation of parties, Lincoln was a Republican

As it pertains to slavery

The older Republican party was populist

Now it's almost just an economic party
