Guys Cheeto Blormphfff is malfunctioning...

I watched “The Man Who Would Be King” the other day, and that is now one of my favorite movies. I want to read the book now

Feels like they must be making this up, how could everything political go awry at once?

Maybe somebody has Yuge blackmail on Trump.

@Sam Anderson Is that real?

I haven't seen it but I know it's good by viewer rating and how much it triggers libs.

I'm sure it's good too. I've seen Zahlers other two films and they were great.

Haven't been able to track down a copy of the new one with Mel Gibson yet. I think they tested it out in festivals and are now working on a wider release.

@Rabbidsith not sure if people actually have blackmail on trump but it would make sense. Given how he has been ineffective recently.

yeah

Was the civil war about states rights or slavery?

States rights

It was about immigration

Ok, but how?

I don’t know much about it

civil war was about slavery like the yellow vest movement is about taxes

States rights vs puritanical crusade to violate all law for their feels

The subject was about slavery but the principle was states rights

Civil war was beginning of end of constitution

But the intention was slavery?

Slavery was a grave error for moral, economic, and memetic reasons. But it would have been better to preserve Constitution.

The reason it was fought was over slavery, the consequences wrote the definition of states rights?

No it's like fighting your neighbor over mowing the lawn but the principle is HOA control

But they weren’t arguing over states rights

A secondary but significant issue was tarrifs

slavery was crucial to the economy.
it was actually designed that way

even plantation owners had to take out loans from the banks to maintain business

all the money went to a small group, as usual

So slavery is small picture

They definitely were arguing over states rights.

Big picture is slavery

Or states rights I meant

Basically yes

Ahh

true or false; states have/had a right to secede from the union?

For example Lincoln didn't free slaves in North under emancipation proclamation

^

And he wanted to send all slaves back to Africa

the north had slaves after the civil war lmao

can't wait for when the left call for the removal of the lincoln monument

Vast majority of southern soldiers didn't own slaves. For them it was self rule
