He supports “cancel culture”.

Don't change the subject! Stop censoring and banning American history classes because you're embarrassed. All American history should be taught: the good, the bad and the ugly.

170 years ago? Obviously, you need to take an American history course, too! You just proved my point about your ignorance re: slavery.

FYI, history is about the past which is the reason it's called history. Once again, you prove your ignorance by suggesting that no history should ever be taught because it happened in the past.

You'll have to enter Politics with me. Create a subject there and give me the link and we'll discuss in detail.

That's a dumb question.

You don't have to own slaves to benefit from slavery. You don't run a sweat shop in a third-world country, but you benefit from the exploitation of their labor each time you buy something cheap made overseas.

Your denial, shame and guilt are obvious.

Who ran the Atlantic Slave Trade and were the main beneficiaries? Europeans including white Americans

Did all white people benefit from slavery? Yes

"Nevertheless, slavery was indispensable to European development of the New World. It is inconceivable that European colonists could have settled and developed North and South America and the Caribbean without slave labor. Moreover, slave labor did produce the major consumer goods that were the basis of world trade during the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries: coffee, cotton, rum, sugar, and tobacco.

In the pre-Civil War United States, a stronger case can be made that slavery played a critical role in economic development. One crop, slave-grown cotton, provided over half of all US export earnings. By 1840, the South grew 60 percent of the world's cotton and provided some 70 percent of the cotton consumed by the British textile industry. Thus slavery paid for a substantial share of the capital, iron, and manufactured goods that laid the basis for American economic growth. In addition, precisely because the South specialized in cotton production, the North developed a variety of businesses that provided services for the slave South, including textile factories, a meat processing industry, insurance companies, shippers, and cotton brokers."

In case you forgot, white Southerners refused to give up slavery and went to war in order to maintain it. And terrorized blacks for generations with lynchings and Jim Crow laws.

Learn American history! Stop running away from it like a coward.

English words don't have an expiration date.

Truthfully, of course.

I fully understand what free speech is. Free speech does not mean that you can just say whatever you want, whenever you want, and not have to face any repercussions for that. Freedom of speech protects one from the government, not other people.

Blazing Saddles isn’t racist, so no.

Its funny the extent to which it has sort of been a "bell curve" low in the 30s, 40s, 50s, then going UP in the 60s, 70's, 80s and even the 90's (though Jim Carrey and Will Ferrell gave comedy back to a new generation of Jerry Lewis-type kid fans.)

But not today. Congratulations. You have been taken "back to the future" of the 50's as far as movie content goes.

Except they do get to cuss some, still...
