like an ongoing effort to abolish slavery throughout the world
or, as a general pro-freedom holiday.
So I was hoping we could talk about some good messaging about how to do this, directing these holidays towards something productive.
a truly free country is almost an oxymoron as that means "anarchy" (an anarcho-capitalist critique). To me that's generally what abolitionism taken to its logical conclusion means. But if anarchy is rejected, still I'm not sure if people are for all the taxes and regulations that exist today, and so some gains in the direction of freedom might be made, and juneteenth could be an occasion to talk about them.
as a victim of "violent black crime" I can appreciate such criticism of the black community
but then also they're "not all like that" so I think liberating them is ok
The problem is more unConstitutional things like the Civil Rights Act, to me. It is weaponized to force association where it wouldn't exist otherwise necessarily.
more of a cultural problem than of if blacks are slaves or free. some of the black community glorifies the "thug" persona
or
There are a lot of North Korean/Middle Eastern slaves. Celebrate Juneteenth and you're a racist.
They're really desperate to have their own holidays. First that Kwanzaa shit and now this.
What about all the slaves in Africa and the Middle East?
"What? Who cares. Fuck those people. This is about me!"
