With increasing dogmatism on the far right, ideology that should have become extinct rears its ugly head. If we don’t stop this, a lot of innocent people will get hurt in the end.
Your George Washington straw man misses the mark, he didn’t fight for slaves.
That’s not the basis for my comparison, and therefore not relevant. The basis for comparison was that he, just like Sanger, is a historical figure that did a lot of good, while also doing a lot of bad.
“I don’t have to prove republicans publicly approved of Washington’s slavery and slaughter of the natives. They know about his past, celebrate him, and continue to this day to try to down play his racist actions.”
Do you still not see the problem here?
Would you consider organizations that honor George Washington to be racist?
Washington did not fight for slavery, did not advicate for it, and infact freed all the slaves he owned. He was not a champion of slavery. Sanger viewed abortion and birth control as a means to stop the undesirables from reproducing. She championed eugenics, PP was just a side effect of her goals.
You still haven’t answered my question.
Would you consider organizations that honor George Washington to be racist?
