Bidenomics is making MAGA look stupid...while trump spends his cult's grifted cash on lawyers. Cheers!

You condeming the practice of slavery that your party started is what is stupid.
Trump has and had his own money. Joey Capone is the one with the "gifted" money right jimboliar???

MAGA is struggling because their "god" is about to be indicted again and again. That is what happens when a man who is a career criminal finally is held accountable for his crimes.

Poor jimboliar. The TDS tumor is mashing down on that acorn sized brain really hard today.

DeSantis says Black people benefited from slavery by learning skills like 'being a blacksmith'

Ron DeSantis defended Florida's new curriculum teaching about the benefits of slavery, saying students will probably learn slaves were blacksmiths.

Of course, he may have lost his children when they were sold to another plantation master? But at least he was taught a trade that kept him happy...when he wasn't thinking about the children he lost. But, he should be happy that he can now shoe a horse and stoke a bellows to keep the fire going.

Why did they train slaves to be blacksmiths?

Because they would have to pay whites to do the same job

 

[jbrownson0831]

MAGA is twisting itself into a pretzel trying to figure out a way to show slavery was actually a benefit. Sadly, the blacksmith that little Ronnie was crowing about may have lost all his children when they were sold to a neighboring plantation.

The MAGA come back to this is, "Black men don't care about their kids."

Your ilk invented slavery in the US jimboliar. And you can't stop raving about it and how your great grandpappy ran the plantation.

You are absolutely right!

Despite the presence of slavery everywhere since the beginning of human history and its acceptance by man's religions, there is nothing to recommend it. There is no genuine defense of it. There is no compensation for having suffered in it. Certainly, there have been instances of 'humane' slave conditions, but their rarity is exceeded only by their irrelevance to arguments in favor of the vile practice.

You may not understand the story.

In the America of 1865, having almost any skill was a goldmine. It is entirely doubtful that anyone would be grateful to slavery for having obtained the skill.

Well, desantis thinks otherwise. He feels black men should be thankful that whites taught them a skill...after they sold their children.

Yes, your great grandpappy taught them. Nice going!

You can be taught a skill
But if you are not paid, you are still a slave

I mean, Little Ronnie thinks, shoeing horses beat the heck out of sharpening spears. Them Darkies should be Happy!

No, he didn't say that. Someone told you he did, and you're too dumb to realize you were lied to. In other words, a typical day for you.

Benefited from slavery? Critics say some of the state’s examples were never even slaves.

All irrelevant to modern society.

ALL American slaves are LONG DEAD except for the children and women your party are looking the other way so the cartels can sell them in America via trafficking through our Mexican border.

I bet if I looked you'd have no threads on the actual slavery occurring right now in our country right?

Did grandpappy own a stable, is that what you are saying? Or just cotton fields jimboliar??

No. That is not what he said - you are projecting, bub.

He said that some freed slaves used what they had learned to improve their lives. That is admirable - to improve oneself after a horrible time of slavery and adversity.

If you bother to read the curriculum outline, you'll find that this brouhaha is taken completely out of context. The curriculum has a broad set of topics, including

I dismiss you.

So since all slaves are now dead there is no reason to teach about slavery?
