    Jefferson was both a white supremacist and institutional racist (for defending the institution of slavery), but acted as soon as constitutionally possible to end the slave trade.

    Yeah, he banned import of more slaves in 1808 so that the domestic market's prices would remain under control of the slavers. What did Jefferson do to make his money again? Oh yeah, he was a "slave breeder" who commented on numerous occasions about how much money black children made him. So this was just in the interest of business. Protectionism.

    And before he got involved in that business, back when he was only secretary of state, he wanted to return all slaves back to Afrika in order for Amerika to remain white. Only, shipping millions of adults would be too expensive. So he suggested to ship only the children back to Afrika (killing many in the process), and have their parents stay and work till their deaths. "the old stock would die off in the ordinary course of nature", which was "practical".

    Of course, there was money to be made, so the ethnostate would never be achieved.

    Barack Obama

    anti-racist

      What is it chuds are saying about academia making people Marxists? They can't even create a moderately coherent world view on something as simple as all US Presidents being essentially the CEO of white supremecy

    Bill Clinton

    Ambivalent

    "Billy Clint 'em" is literally slang for the 3 strike rule nevermind the egregious welfare reform and using literal prison slave labor as a governor

      Wait this says Reagan was "ambivalent".! Holy shit. American propaganda and political illiteracy suprises me yet again. What does "Ambivalent" even mean in this context: like "i guess black people can be considered human, or not, its whatever"
