Know we're all busy but Clemson U wouldn't exist w/o this man!

John C. Calhoun & Wife Floride who gave estate to their Daughter (Anna Maria Calhoun Clemson who married a Yankee from Philly) who in turn gave 3/4 of land and Fort Hill home to state of S.C. for an A&M college.

Saying, John C. Calhoun IS 241 yrs old today!

Oh, he was VP of U.S. twice, Sec of War, Sec of State, a Senator, an Ambassador and farmer.

He strongly believed in the original Constitution and the Maintenance of a real "Union of States" (aka States Rights) which got him into trouble defending it so adamantly and thus the Civil War!

HAPPY 241st BIRTHDAY J. C.!

And, GoTiGERS!

I’m sure you are prepared to give the land you live on back to the indigenous people or the slaves that followed. What’s your point?

Australia, Asia, Europe, the Middle East, anyone living anywhere right now weren’t the original people that lived on that land. It’s called human evolution and migration.

But based on your normal posting, I’m pretty sure you were being sarcastic just to screw with people and stir the pot.

The Civil War was not a Civil War.

The south was not fighting for control of the American government. It was more accurately either the second American revolution or the war of northern aggression. Actually, it was both.

Everything people are taught about Abraham Lincoln and the Civil War is a lie. It’s pure propaganda. Abraham Lincoln is one of the worst presidents ever and #### on the constitution in ways Democrats today would have wet dreams about! This is actually not controversial. Many scholars have written books and essays about this. They don’t dispute the facts and atrocities of Abraham Lincoln. What they do is try and rationalize it as a means to an end, but that is a lie as well, because Lincoln did not instigate the Civil War because of slavery. Lincoln didn’t give a #### about slaves. Lincoln instigated the Civil War by sending a ship into Charleston harbor to resupply fort Sumter, knowing it would be fired on because Lincoln needed to make the south look like the aggressor so he could send the army into the south to force the south back into the union. In fact, most people up north did not want or support a war, nor did the major newspapers.

It was not unconstitutional to leave the union back, then which is why Lincoln suspended the supreme court, because he knew if the confederacy sued the American government, the confederacy would probably win.

Slavery is still alive and well and thriving around the globe today. Slavery has existed since the dawn of man. The African slave trade wasn’t even racist. Racism had nothing to do with it. That is something created by the left for identity politics. The original slaves in America were actually Irish and other Europeans. But they cannot handle the heat and humidity and malaria in the south. Africans became slaves because they were largely immune to these things because of the climate in Africa.

America is the only country that ended slavery through violence. Everyone else resolved it peacefully because slavery, the Atlantic slave trade, ended around 20 years later because of the industrial revolution as well as more enlightened ideals.

And of course, people back then were not racist the way we think of racism today. They were simply a product of their time. But there has always been racism and will always be racism everywhere around the world. In fact, Asia is one of the most racist places on the planet. And the most racist people in America are actually black. Well, and of course white liberals.

But let’s not let things like the truth get in the way of really good propaganda!

Slavery was used by the Federal Govt then as they are using African Americans today to keep their power to enrich the global elite. Every building across the world including the pyramids of Egypt during that time was built with slavery. The White House was built by slaves. Jews were slaves to Egypt and the Indians land was stolen. Calhoun gave away what he had for the betterment of all.

The media and government schools are nothing but brainwashing mechanisms. They are designed to control the masses.

Wrong about the pyramids though.

No one is justifying slavery as it was wrong but it was the way the entire world operated almost from the beginning of time. The world has improved and sins have been forgiven thru Jesus. If you can’t forgive then you will not be forgiven. The one that does not have sin can throw the stone. Can you throw stones. Look at the log in your own eye.

No one is justifying anything.

It’s actually the left that’s been justifying the crap that they have been doing for years decades including Covid hysteria. People on the right or for individual rights and freedoms. Not collectivism.

And no one is justifying a rationalizing anything. It’s called objective and corrective history.

Slavery is alive and well today. It is thriving! And slavery didn’t have anything to do with racism. That’s not justifying anything it’s simply correcting the propaganda used for identity politics for power and control

Why are the Democrats always against school choice. They want African Americans to stay in the large cities depending on them thru welfare so they can control their vote and sell them drugs. They use racism for their benefit as they could care less about the black race. There were more Republicans in govt than democrats that voted for civil rights. Check out Bidens record

Democrats and the left


Mar 18, 2023, 7:23 PM

Hate private schools, hate charter schools, hate school choice, hate homeschooling, they hate anything other than the public government prisons, a.k.a. public education, because that’s their propaganda mill. You know who loves charter schools and school choice? The black community. Blacks overwhelmingly are in favor of charter schools, vouchers, etc. But they show their stupidity by continuing to vote blue instead of Republican. But that is changing. Hispanics and blacks are starting to vote more and more for Republicans. And more importantly not neocon and establishment Republicans, but actual conservatives and libertarians.

If it had not been for the republicans the 1960s civil rights bill would have never passed Less than half of them supported the bill. Yet the black community accepts their lies and pulls the democratic lever in elections. If not for the black community in which their leaders make millions to keep the masses under control the democrats could not get elected to a dog catcher on their own. The black community keeps them in business.

The black slave trade is still in business in Brazil.
