they fought for slavery and not to have to pay their taxes. i get that you’re joking, but it’s crazy to me that people still use this argument to defend… anything. Our founding fathers had some decent ideas about democracy and the separation of church and state, but when it came to their vaunted “all men are created equal” concept, they clearly didn’t mean what they said. What they really meant was, “Down with the aristocracy, down with nobility! We want all rich, white, Christian men on the same top echelon of society, regardless of bloodline!” Also, “Can i purchase that human?”
