Need a perverse laugh?
Because I can't imagine anyone taking this guy seriously.
This yahoo argues that slavery really wasn't such a big deal. It's an object lesson in how to create strawmen in such a way as to advance a patently absurd argument.
For example:
-America is not the only country who did slavery but we deserve Divine credit for ending it!
-Slavery was "brutal" but at least it wasn't genocidal. Hooray for non-genocidal mass atrocities!!
-Slavery existed in America "only briefly" (two and a half centuries) so big whoop!
-Criticizing slavery is mere political correctness, so by definition slavery must be fine.
I hope this guy is a bad satirist because it'd hurt my head to think he was serious.
