“Extremist Subreddit Chapotraphouse call for the execution of 1/4 of All US presidents”rookie numbers, i call for the execution of 100% of all US presidents, if not for slavery then for genocide and war crimes.
column spacing is bourgeois decadence
I’m considering removing all html tables currently in lemmy bc of issues like this. No one wants squished or side-scrolling content when like 90% of us are on our phones.
Lol I can see it now.
cm0o0o2: The Tankie Triad are trying to take our Tables!
On the other hand, making it into an image as in the post here is probably worse for accessibility…
Definitely worse for accessibility.
Tables are very useful. If a large table is inconvenient on a phone, just ignore the post or pull it up later on a computer or tablet.
A lot of data being presented as a table is too dense to be reading on a phone in the first place, no matter how you present it.
turn your phone 90 degrees, i’m not turning my ultrawide
Ulysses was certainly an American because he was raised by an abolitionist but was himself kinda like
about slavery despite fighting for the union. Literally bought William Jones (his slave) from his father-in-law to build a cabin and then freed him like a year later. Why Ulysses?? Why?!? You could’ve had an (relatively at least, if you ignore the whole native american/dominican republic portion of his presidency) untarnishedWell and the jewish thing. Doing a pogrom is generally considered a bad look.
I gotta break out Margaret Kimberly’s - Prejudential: Black America and the Presidents book and reread the chapter on him.
You missed out Clinton https://www.currentaffairs.org/news/2017/06/the-clintons-had-slaves
Good point. If we count the presidents who’ve used prison slave labor in some form, it’s probably 100%.
Not to detract from the point, but isn’t nathan j robinson a weirdo of some kind?
True, although I’d make a distinction between using slave labour for the ends of the state/capital e.g. firefighting, stamping license plates, and purely personal gain at your residence
If being a self professed ‘socialist’ while union busting dressed as a dandy is weird then yes
Anyway here’s a non-NJR source https://www.newsweek.com/hillary-clinton-prison-labor-african-americans-arkansas-622209 there’s others out there as well
Hilary also discusses it in her book It Takes a Village
i would argue multiple kinds of weird but he’s fairly good for a lib
It me
definitely higher than that. for one prison labor is legally defined as slavery. Two, do you really put it above some of these shady corrupt mfers to have trafficked illegial slaves.
mfw all men are created equal
There’s 3 more years left where this number could increase.
