Comment on YSK that in several US States, it's illegal to boycott Israel
hector@lemmy.today 1 day agoYes anytime the new deal is brought up the detractors say that minorities were discriminated against, so, nothing they did counts. Defective logic, nothing anyone did ever would count using that logic.
Give me one historical example where you could not find injustice to negate using an example from? Just one. Nothing now would count. Nothing in us history.
Using that argument is telling of where your head is at, perhaps actively stymying resistance, to accelerate the decline mistakenly believing something better would replace it. That is the more charitable take on your use of that argument too.

The Pre-Nixon Era was defined by more than just the New Deal and the Great Society.
Understanding history is very different from advocating for “accelerationism”

Yet you do not indulge my question, give me one example that cannot be dismissed with your logic dismissing the new deal?

Lincoln did not even want emancipation at first, and grant was corrupt and let his admin loot the government, then abandoned reconstruction to jim crow in a deal to get to keep the 1876 election they stole from tillman for hayes.
That republican party? Hardly.
