    Hundreds of years of slavery.

    1m Americans died because they wanted to keep slavery.

    100 more years of Jim Crow, slavery in another guise.

    Hitler cited Jim Crow in Mein kampf as an example German genetic policies must follow.

    Black GIs came back from fighting nazis in Europe to be lynched for being ‘uppity’.

    Our mistake was not being too cruel, it was being too gentle.

    Notice how Germany doesn’t have nazi statues everywhere.

    Purge once, or suffer forever, we made the wrong choice, needed to let uncle Sherman finish his work.
