Only 3% of southerners had slaves according to the 1850 census
So that alone is not a great argument.
I would disagree because most of the southern working class didn’t like big wig slave oweners
Source for that census?
@Da_Fish you are a creature driven purely by vanity... and crippled by laziness and fundamental stupidity
A cursory Google search traces that figure to an internet meme and confirms my statement.
Numbers are placed at between 1/4 and 1/3 from what I'm seeing.
Just about 4%
Where on this page does it actually say thatm
Am I missing it because I'm on mobile?
This website breaks it down by state.
Countrywide average of 8%, by individual state slaveholding states look at about 25% on average.
@εïз irma εïз https://www.census.gov/library/publications/1864/dec/1860a.html Broken down here by state or territory
Kinda hard to view the text though
@Deleted User If only you had a quarter arguments for every insult
But where does the figure of 3% actually come from?
Politifact, loathe as I am to cite them, breaks it down.
The number I cited by state counts households.
Mystery solved gang.
@εïз irma εïз sitting here spewing out your tired fifth-hand /pol/ memes about religion and history like anybody but yourself is even vaguely impressed by the persona you decided to grab for yourself off an image-board this week.
"Using Census data to research his book, Glatthaar calculated that 4.9 percent of people in the slaveholding states owned slaves, that 19.9 percent of family units in those states owned slaves, and that 24.9 percent of households owned slaves. (Households are a broader category than families.)"
You're mistaken. I don't browse imageboards.
I thought you were going to bed?
And as for the technical distinction for census-taking, "A household consists of one or more persons living in the same house, condominium or apartment. They may or may not be related. A family has two or more members who live in the same home and are related by birth, marriage or adoption."
But that's still only a 5% discrepancy.
please stop trying to bond with this probably obese, probably male shut-in mental case because you think that buying into her lies about herself will make it more likely that other people will buy into your lies about yourself @Da_Fish
Is that projection?
Seems that he fled your pedantics @εïз irma εïз
Being corrected by a magnitude of ten doesn't sound like being pedantic to me.
Maybe you should go to bed.
I think I will. Goodnight.
Well, it is admirable that you put him in his place
He needs a good beat down as much as you do
Goodnight @εïз irma εïз until next time
observing these chats is an interesting lesson in how pervasive and profound a thing human weakness is. It interests me. I have had my moments of feeling helpless and needy but personally I have never sunk so low as to behave the way you people, and people in Internet chatrooms generally, do: i.e; come crawling back again and again to some little circle of random strangers that you have somehow managed to fashion in your minds into a semblance of a "social circle" and KEEPING ON crawling back, day after day, night after night, no matter how many boring repellent, deeply unsympathetic shitheads whatever mentally-ill power-freak that runs the chat keeps chucking in on top of you like a fast-food manager chucks slops in on top of bums sleeping in a dumpster
