Black Dog

I do think he won, though.

You provided one citation to some random crank's book claiming Lincoln owned slave. I pressed you for a corroborating source, you said "there's quite a bit" and now you're pussing out and crying about "sealioning" like you usually do because you're a chickenshit fraud. So you can't address any of the links I provided so you;re just gonna pretend they don't exist? What a pu$$y! Nope. The north didn't benefit from the cotton trade? You really are a simpleton. The fact it was supplanted by other industries after the war has nothing to do with its importance to the economy before the war when those other industries didn't yet exist. In fact, the industrial boom that followed the war was a result of wartime spending and investment in industries like manufacturing and the railroads, so witjout the war to end slavery, that boom might not have happened as it did. Cotton accounted for 60% of the value of all exports from the United States in 1860. The importance of cotton to the whole US economy was one of the reasons the South thought they could get away with secession because they didn't think anyone would go to war and disrupt the cotton trade. My argument is that the United State's transition from an agrarian society to an industrial and financial powerhouse was fuelled in large part by cotton which depended on slave labour. Oh look just a bunch of claims with no supporting evidence. Again, if you think the economic impact of slavery was confined to the south, you're even dumber than I thought and that's saying something. You're dragging it our right now. lol literally "anyone I don't like is a socialist." This is a particularly stupid thing to say given how different the history of the U.S.A would have been if the Civil War hadn't been fought, which it probably wouldn't have if slavery hadn't been so central to the Southern states.

You're so so dumb. What the f**k are they supposed to do in these rare situations, exactly?

No it's conventional wisdom that no one cares about VP debates and i'd say the same if Walz won. Presidential debates, like the one Trump badly lost, are a different story.

Lol you aren't really this stupid are you? Have you ever wondered why so much of Canada's population lives with a 100 clicks of the U.S. border and not in the northern wilderness? The fur trade era was ending by the time of Confederation; the main driver of government policy vis a vis the native population at that point was the railroad and Western settlement.

"The Indigenous people were mean to each other therefore it's ok that we f*cked them in turn" is not a relevant argument. Nothing I give you will be accepted, be honest about that. "Treaties aside" lol the treaties are kind of significant here given they are the basis for relatyions betwen the Crwon and the indigenous people. This is what you said: Boy you are one ignorant mfer. LOl if someone said the same shit you're saying here about any other racial group you'd probably call them racist too. You keep posting racist stuff that proves my accusations.

The government didn't want them living off the land because they wanted the land for settlement. Not all were moved, but many were and most of the land was taken (hence the ongoing process of settling land claims).

Literally yes. VP debates are irrelevant.

Yeah the government moved them to shitty land and ensured they were unable to be self sufficient and now people like you are like "buh how did this dependency happen?"

In other words, you assumed that the only reason a person wouldn't be racist towards Indigenous people is because tehy are one, which is wild. You posted a bunch of irrelevant garbage to justify colonization and other atrocities. Indigenous people have contributed plenty but I know that no example i give you will be good enough because you would inevitably claim those are outliers and that the people as a whole are useless. LOL you clearly don't know the history of this country if you think that's how tit went down here. Here's a hint, google the treaties. You said 40 generations, your website says 40 generations is 1065 years lol. The settlers literally gave the Indigenous people booze you numpty. Like I said, tough shit, that was the deal the Crown made. You're obviously and openly extremely racist against native folks. Just own it dummy. OK let's take a third of your kids away (assuming you have any) and give them to priests to r@pe, sound like a good deal to you?

"There's quite a bit" he says while sharing zero additional evidence. lmao you fraud. lol I showed you the evidence you loser, more evidence than you presented for your absurd claims about Lincoln. Well for starters, your "analysis" excludes one constituency who was very much impacted by slavery: the enslaved, who at the time of the Civil War were 12% of the total U.S. population and nearly half of the Confederacy. So all told that's 20% of the entire U.S. population with direct ties to slavery. And of course there's the economic impacts. The biggest US export before the civil war was cotton, and industry driven entirely by slave labour. The cotton industry also fuelled the American banking/finance, shipping/exports and other sectors. indeed, the transformation of the United States from an agrarian economy to an industrial one was driven by the growth and export of cotton, which in turn was built on the backs of the enslaved. The point is you're retarded for thinking any of those groups were socialists. You always do, you just like to drag out the process.

lol yeah "Hey sorry you're bleeding out here but we have to send this over to the board, they should be getting back to us within 72 hours." Literally enslaving women to a blob of tissue.

Why do you assume I'm Indigenous you racist weirdo? I don't know what point you think you're trying to make here by being a giant racist loser. No one claimed that the indigenous peoples were perfect angels living in peace and harmony, but the question is irrelevant. Europeans spent hundreds of years murdering and enslaving each other too but that wouldn't be justification for conquering them. You're confusing the indigenous people for the settler colonists who took, took, took everything they could get their hands on. An easy mistake for a stupid person like you to make. 40 generations is about 1,000 years, you're as bad at math as you are critical thinking. They also took their land, took their children, destroyed their cultures, got them hooked on booze and drugs, r*ped their women and kids, broke the treaties that were made in good faith. That Indigenous people have so many issues today is a direct product of 200+ years of colonization and if that reality is triggering to you, tough shit. You broke it, you own it.

Again: read a book, you racist shithead.

She was hemorrhaging, dummy. The state is suing because the hospital violated state law requiring hospitals provide necessary emergency care and has the resources to back it up.

There's no real evidence Lincoln owned slaves. The majority of Confederate monuments were erected decades after the war to promote the lost Cause myth and celebrate white supremacy. Louis Riel didn't fight to defend the rights of people to keep other human beings in bondage and servitude. America was built on slavery, pretending it wasn't is erasing history. And you argued the CSA were socialists. No wonder you surrender faster than Lee at Appomattox lmao.

My post was about the reserve system, why are you talking about the residential schools lmao That's literally what they did. Under John A, Indian Agents used the promise of food to get recalcitrant tribes onto reserves and out of the way of the railroad, at which point they were 100% dependent on the government. John A also approved the authorized the pass system, which required First Nations to obtain permission from their Indian agent to leave their reserve.

A self-published book by an anti-Lincoln/pro CSA crank featuring claims that have never been made before and evidence that no one has ever come across in 150+ years and you think it's gospel because you're very dumb. Got anything by someone who isn't a crank/is an actual historian of the era? As you would say: nope. That's literally why they did it. https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/confederate-statues/ https://www.history.com/news/how-the-u-s-got-so-many-confederate-monuments https://www.splcenter.org/20190201/whose-heritage-public-symbols-confederacy https://www.vox.com/the-big-idea/2017/8/18/16165160/confederate-monuments-history-charlottesville-white-supremacy Because i'm not interested in getting bogged down in your fatuous false equivalencies here. Just a reminder the "good and noble" thing we're talking about here is a guy who committed treason to defend chattel slavery. *amazing things to defend slavery The Nazis thought they were good guys too, what's your point? I want the icons that glorify figures like him gone so people don't come away thinking stupid shit about how he was a great guy fighting for a noble cause like you believe. I'd rather people get the full and accurate picture. You're literally rewriting history here by downplaying Lee's commitment to upholding slavery. Though I'm a little surprised you're such a fan of a guy who fought for a "socialist" regime like the CSA as per your previous claims.

Gee I wonder why a people that were violently subjugated, had their land stolen, were confined to shitty reserves, had their communities destroyed, their cultures criminalized, their children stolen and r*ped might not be in great shape today. Again: read an actual history book.

It was. The whole point of shoving them onto reserves was to make them utterly dependent on the government. Part of that was out of necessity as the near extinction of the bison in the prairies threatened many Indigenous people with starvation, but there was also no denying that a population dependent on the state for survival and cut off from their own way of life by government would be easier to control and attempt to assimilate.

lol "it was in a press release about a self-published book so it must be true!" No, Lincoln did not own slaves, this book is a joke and you're retarded for believing it. Oh look another CdnTard post making a claim without a cite. Yeah I'm aware you probably did 5 seconds of googling and clicked on the first link that confirms your biases but that's not actually research. No they don't want a traitor and slave-owner who fought to defend chattel slavery honoured as a hero. Oh wow that's a compelling argument. It's a simple fact that the confederate monuments were specifically raised to glorify the CSA as part of the "Lost Cause" mythology that sprung up to justify the civil war and whitewash the role of slavery in the conflict. He was overrated as a general, actually, who was made to look good by the fact that all the northern generals he faced were even worse until Grant. Prove it. He only lived five years after the war before a rebellious blood clot took him out. He hated slavery so much he owned slaves and loved freedom so much that he betrayed his country to fight in defence of slavery. Those are the key things to know about the guy whatever his brief post war career. Well, that and they took the site of Arlington national cemetery from his family as a big "f*ck you" to his treacherous ass.

It's f*cking hilarious to see people complaining about Indigenous people being dependent on government when that was the express goal of 125 years of government policy towards them, but somehow that's the native peoples' fault. Open a history book for once in your life, ye gods. lol the only think you're impaling is your anime body pillow you weird little basement-dwelling loser.

Lincoln didn't own any slaves dummy lmao. No one is erasing history by destroying monuments built to celebrate the achievements of racist scumbag traitors like Bobby Lee. If anything, monuments glorifying people like that whitewash history by depicting them in positive/heroic ways. In fact that was the entire purpose of most Southern Civil War monuments. What positive elements are we talking about, specifically?

If he's not senile then what's wrong with him? Why is he slurring his words, why is he so low energy, where did his rizz go?

Yes take this to court minisoldr, I'm sure the discovery process would be amazing.
