What about... Mollasses to Rum?
Molasses to rum to slaves
Who sail the ships back to Boston
Laden with gold, see it gleam
Whose fortunes are made
In the triangle trade
Hail slavery, the New England dream
Mr. Adams, I give you a toast
Hail Boston
Hail Charleston
Who stinketh the most?

Smitty and his ilk see the left as a demon bent on the destruction of all they hold dear.Smitty wrote:the Champers Bolshies, are fundamentally un-American, and in fact, bent on destroying America as it was designed and intended, enemies of the American Revolution therein.
They want an enemy...
And by the fervour of their intentions they will find one.
If they need one so badly, who am I to defy them.

When has the Right ever viewed the Left as anything other than a threat to the enlightenment of civilization itself?DrYouth wrote:Smitty and his ilk see the left as a demon bent on the destruction of all they hold dear.Smitty wrote:the Champers Bolshies, are fundamentally un-American, and in fact, bent on destroying America as it was designed and intended, enemies of the American Revolution therein.

We've never been friends to the Left, from the moment it was born in the French Revolution as a Terror, and rightly so.
Jacobites Communal to Cultural Marxists, no matter, we will put your Terror to the fire and sword, if it's the last thing we ever do.

It will not take us to the end of time to destroy your Terror, make no mistake, your time on this earth is running out, Bolshies, the dustbin of history awaits you, the enlightenment of civilization will prevail, and it's not going be as long as you think.
The only left to be left, will be the left of our Right, the Left as you know it, is going the way of the Dodo, or didn't you notice?

'Right' in this context would be anyone who wanted to keep things the way they were (slavery in some states and prohibition in others).Speaker to Animals wrote:Abolitionists were not "left". "Left" was the slave lords. Democrats in the northern cities kept the poor workers on the vote plantation same as today. They claimed they were looking out for the little guy, who was just trying to get by to feed his family, while the republicans wanted to free millions of slaves to flood the labor pool and drive down wages. Democrats have been doing this stuff for a long time. They are good at it.
Also, the Great Migration didn't take place until the 1900s, so obviously millions of ex-slaves didn't flood the labor pool and drive down wages. They stayed where they had already been working.
No.

You don't believe left = progressive and right = conservative?

I believe the left likes to play games with redefining words whenever they don't fit "the narrative".

Left towards the prerogatives of a collective, Right towards the prerogatives of sovereignty against a collective; since the birth of the Left and Right, in the French Revolution.mydogjesse wrote:You don't believe left = progressive and right = conservative?
No God but man and his Commune v. God and my right to be King; American version, God and everyman's right to be a king.
