Without knowing anything about her except that she was a US historical figure rich enough to own gold platters I can confidently say she was a genocidal fascist who either owned slaves or was best friends with people who did and deserves far worse than whatever dunks a commie shitpost forum can throw at her a century? after her death.
"Unlike Martha Washington, Abigail Adams opposed slavery and had favored its abolition in the early 1770s. While sympathetic to the slaves and the hardships they endured, "Lady Adams" was less compassionate toward the young nation's immigrant population."
Arright, you got me interested enough to google it.
Adams did not own enslaved people. Instead, the Adamses hired white and free African-American workers to provide these services. However, that did not mean that they avoided slavery altogether. While the Adamses opposed slavery both morally and politically, they tolerated the practice in their daily lives and they may have hired out enslaved African Americans, paying wages to their owners, to work in the Vice President’s and President’s House. ... Abigail finally came to the conclusion that she would only hire American-born servants and that enslaved African Americans were the most reliable of that group: “the chief of the Servants here who are good for any thing are Negroes who are slaves, the white ones are all Foreigners & chiefly vagabonds.”
And that platter probably belonged to the wife of John Quincy Adams or something hahahahahhaah
Abigail Adams was all right. No need to be dragging her into this.
