WHAT?!
You mean to tell me this Undemocratic system, where the #federal level that's structured to be undemocratic in a country where it's #constitution made from undemocratic #slave owners, is not a #democracy? Shocker!
This shit has been a fucking thing since 2000.
1-10-1861 - #Florida seceded from the Union because "A #President has recently been elected, an obscure and illiterate man without experience in public affairs...no more #slave States shall be admitted into the confederacy and that the slaves...will become value less
"...we will not confiscate your property and consign you to...equality with the african but that destiny certainly awaits...submit or we will force you to submission." FL Declaration: https://www.civilwarcauses.org/florida-dec.htm

"The whole commerce between master and #slave is a perpetual exorcise of the most boisterous passions, the most unremitting despotism on the one part, and degrading submissions on the other."- Thomas Jefferson

@ChemicalEyeGuy @fulelo #Slavery literally never ended, it only evolved. There have always been #slave states.
@mostaurelius #Louisiana is a #slave state, and #Angola #prison may be the largest #plantation in the #US, but definitely not the only one.
For years, #Indigenous people in the #NWT have been working to #decolonize names. That's included calls to scrap the word #slave from #GreatSlaveLake and #Slavey, changing them to something meaningful to Indigenous people.
The request the territory received back in 2022 suggested the lake's name reflect four #IndigenousLanguages: Dene Zhatıé, Dëne Sųłıné Yatıé, Tłıchǫ Yatıı̨̀ and Wıı̀lıı̀deh Yatıı̨̀. It was supported by the North Slave Métis Alliance and the former MLA for #Yellowknife North, according to information from Cleveland's department.
Georgina Fabian, an elder from Fort Providence, said the name 'Slavey' is a #colonial term that was imposed on her people.
"It shouldn't take this long ... but the problem with Great Slave Lake itself is that there are many #IndigenousCommunities that border the lake, so it is now a matter of which name you should choose ... so there is a lot of politics with that," Nokleby said.
America was the first constitutional democracy, and all subsequent democracies have looked at how we do it before creating their own system of government. Yet not one of over a hundred countries adopted our Electoral College.
Why Not? Is it because the Electoral College was concocted to give the slaver states an advantage?

3/ To make this profitable, he lowered the wages of workers to such an extent, that by 1937, #slave labour was deemed acceptable as long as it benefitted the #war with China & profited the #investors.
#TIL the "value" of the slaves one of my relatives "owned" back in 1857 and now I'm sick to my stomach.
(I was looking over some of my family's ancestry docs. It's one thing to know your family tree includes slave owners, which I already did. It's quite another to discover some of the nuance of what that actually meant.)
