Wrong, Sam Adams at least also never owned any. Of the rest, some came around to be abolitionists or always were. Don't pretend they were babies, who couldn't possibly know it was wrong to enslave a fellow human. They knew. They benefited. Human Capital was much more literal then

@Hogwatch6 @TheFormerExpert @zeteo_news Can you name one founding father who was an abolitionist? Only one of them- John Adams- never owned slaves.

@TheFormerExpert @Freddies_boy No, I do understand them, you do not. I'm trying to break it down and simplify it for you to actually learn it, instead of repeating your chatbot generated "knowledge," but you refuse to learn. Brain must already be atrophied. So sad.

@Hogwatch6 @Freddies_boy You haven’t deconstructed my arguments at all. You don’t understand the terminology so I’ve tried being patient and good faith with you but you’re genuinely stupid. I’m sorry

"Centrist groups like Third Way are trying to cancel the popular progressive streamer as part of their campaign to ‘reduce far-left influence and infrastructure.’ Why are top Democrats joining in?"

@TheFormerExpert @Freddies_boy @zeteo_news No, the in-group can totally change it, they control it. How can the government be all powerful and controlled by only a few if also those few can't do anything using the government? That makes no sense. So its only when it's 2%/98% in your view? What about 3%? 7%? Apartheid SA?

The point is that in places like the Soviet or NK, that divide is built into the system and cannot be challenged. The elections aren’t real, opposition isn’t allowed, and you can’t change the power. In a democracy, elites exist too but they’re still subject to being voted out, challenged in court, exposed by media, and protested against. It’s permanent and unchallengeable vs imperfect but contestable

@TheFormerExpert @Freddies_boy If it was such a dumb reply, why is this the ONE time you don't write a 2 page long tweet? Whereas all of mine have been short and sweet, and fully deconstructed your argument. You're just too dumb to realize it.

@TheFormerExpert @Freddies_boy @zeteo_news No, the fact that you think that, shows it's already too late for you. No, nobody should be using those word guessing algorithms. The fancy chatbots designed to agree with you. These things are terrible for society. You're proof. Stop using them. It atrophies your brain.

@TheFormerExpert @Freddies_boy @zeteo_news They appear to, in controlled fashion. They have "elections." Yes, the structure of in-group vs out-group. You mentioned Soviet Union, DPRK, but you don't think they had "elites," who the law protected, but did not bind, and others, who the law binded, but did not protect?

There isn’t some % threshold where a system suddenly becomes totalitarian. Totalitarianism is about structure. By your definition basically every country in history is totalitarian, which makes the term useless. Democracies are judged by whether people can vote, organize, protest, and replace leadership, even if imperfectly. Totalitarian systems don’t allow that at all.

@TheFormerExpert @Freddies_boy @zeteo_news So if the Nazis had put all their victims in one giant camp, or two, and claimed they didn't control that land, but they'd shoot anyone trying to get in or out, attack boats that tried to bring aid, shut down border crossings, etc etc, you'd have been fine with it? Not me.

@Hogwatch6 @Freddies_boy @zeteo_news Palestinians in Gaza aren’t part of the Israel political system, so saying they can’t consent to it doesn’t suddenly make Israel totalitarian. You really don’t know shit and it’s embarrassing.

@TheFormerExpert @Freddies_boy @zeteo_news Who built the fences? Who patrols the sky, the sea? Limits trade in/out? Abducts them to concentration rape camps? "Mows the grass?" The Palestinians are directly underneath the boot of the Israeli political system, they are seeing the politics firsthand, in the purest form.

@TheFormerExpert @Freddies_boy @zeteo_news What's your ratio for the in group vs the out group? 10%/90%? 50%/50%? 60%/40%? 75%/25%?At what point does a govt bcome authoritarian to the point of totalitarianism in your book? No trick, I'm genuinely curious. For me it's any that ain't 100%/0%. I'll take as close as I can get

No it doesn’t lmao you can’t just label everything you don’t like totalitarianism. Totalitarianism is a system like the Soviet Union or modern North Korea where the govt exerts TOTAL CONTROL OVER ITS OWN SOCIETY. OCCUPATION can be unjust, oppressive, even illegal d but it’s still not the same concept. You’re basically redefining totalitarian to mean “any system with serious injustice,” which is stupid but again you don’t know what you’re talking about

@Freddies_boy @TheFormerExpert @zeteo_news No, temporarily. And then doubled it. You don't get credit for the halving it if you turn around and double it again, right after that. All that proves is it could have always been done, but they chose not to Buying into fascist hysteria does. She supported arming the zionazis.

@TheFormerExpert @Freddies_boy @zeteo_news No, how you treat your occupied territories counts, too. You occupy that land. You control it. Do you think a country that allows slavery wouldn't inherently be totalitarian, if some people can vote? No, it's not just how you treat the highest class, it's how u treat the lowest

You have to be one of the dumbest people I’ve ever encountered. Totalitarianism is about how a government treats its OWN POPULATION? not people outside its political system. Palestinians in Gaza DONT VOTE IN ISRAELI elections, just like Mexican citizens don’t vote in US elections. That doesn’t make the US “totalitarian.” The screenshot is describing the Great March of Return along the fence between Israel and the Gaza Strip. Gaza is not part of Israel and its residents are not Israeli citizens. It’s governed by Hamas, not the Israeli government. Dummy

@TheFormerExpert @Freddies_boy @zeteo_news I covered all of what u did, u just were too dumb to realize. "Unaccountable government that enforces it's rules w/o consent." Whats that mean? Wait, do you think Palestinians can somehow exert will on the Israeli govt? No, Israel kills protesters. By the hundreds. Routinely

Totalitarianism isn’t a government doing bad things… It’s a system where the state controls political power, speech, opposition, media, and civil life. Where citizens have ZERO ability to challenge it. Israel allows people to criticize it publicly, protest against it, vote against their leaders, organize politically. That’s NOT totalitarianism. Hope that helps!

@Freddies_boy @TheFormerExpert @zeteo_news Give me any definition of it that does not include how Israel treats it's illegally occupied territories. I assure you, an unaccountable government that enforces it's rules on you w/o consent, that oppresses, steals from, rapes, uses you and then murders you, undeniably counts.

@Freddies_boy @TheFormerExpert @zeteo_news John and Samuel Adams both were against it on moral grounds. Benjamin Franklin became an abolitionist and president of the Pennsylvania Abolition Society. John Jay founded and was president of the New York Manumission Society. Hamilton helped him found it. Mason. Laurens. Paine.
