Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction. (13th amendment)

What an opportunist.

no need to be a smug asshole about basic facts.

:smuglord:

That individual is likely Chinese or has an unusual interest in 19th-century Chinese history for an American.

That’s your response?

god, you’re a comedian

unusual interest

It’s superficial simple historical term used for comparison to Qing-era China, for God’s sake.

clarification for Kuori’s statement: Letstakealook accuses someone of being un-American, for using a quote that they think Americans are too dumb to know, ironic, coming from a European.

I guess Americans don’t read to even a 4th grade level, I guess?

Ok, you got me

Egh, maybe you’ve just grown too old to notice the more recent dreams?

Not in my lifetime, it best collapse

That means “No Internment Camp Enforcement”

I agree with this article on all its main point, except for one thing: he did not become the swamp when he decided to rule

He is part of the swamp, even before his presidential campaign.

Hmm… the question is how do they get a hold of em and

Prolly another rivaling billionaire, if their stake in capital hurts more with him in power. But that seems unlikely

Welp, let America fall I guess…

Prolly, mango. Then again, we might have to check if its native to the area, otherwise OOF

Not long!

Heyyyyyyyy heyy

胜利的共产党开启了新时代 (Qianlima on the wing: Chinese version of the DPRK song)

This mentality fuels the polarization between mainstream Republicans and Democrats, much like a religious schism. Both sides have a different interpretation of the doctrine and view each other as heretic traitors intent on destroying the nation.

Nah, this is the only thing I can disagree upon

More or less, to me, regardless of what they do, nowadays, the mere partisan fight is a performance for voters…

Dem can’t live without Rep, because the latter is the conservative boogeymen cow that they will milk marginalized urban demographics for…

Rep can’t live without Dem, because the latter is the “progressive” version of that…

Either way, they get their coin in the drum, by both the voters, lobbyists, and the actual capitalist hands behind it

The last time they were serious about national heresy, it was in the Civil War, where Republicans were “progressive” and Democrats “conservative”

But, afterwards the more Lincolnite-Republicans acquiesced to Jim-Crow Democrats, in regards to the latter re-establish slavery by another name upon African Americans and populist settler agricultural hegemony, in exchange that Republicans continue their own industrialist and finance business…

it continues more or less the same, with switched modern faces in the 1960s we all know today

(A two-faced maneuver, you say that)

This is all before the concept of “external threats” that come from Global South was created as a concept… which they accuse each other of…

Hmm, maybe after Tagalog… this language should be next. From what I’ve heard, no conjugation problem, just foreign vocab input, mainly as a problem…

That being said, your reason reminds me of this ever so inspiring quote.

China is a big country, inhabited by many Chinese.
