    That’s Jefferson? He was full of crap then evidently, that quote is heavy teen rebel energy. Was he one of the slave owners or was he just angling to genocide the existing tenants? Is he one of the still-popular ones? So many questions.

      I see I already had you correctly tagged as “bootlicker”.

        For being sceptical about the motives of a rich elite from 200+ years ago? OK then.

    Maybe, just maybe, this specific mod is, like me, not an American and does not know this unmarked quote.

    Maybe he knew and still did it.

    I don’t know, so I can’t judge. Do you?

      That’s not really the point. The point is it’s such a benign thing to say that it’s completely absurd to censor it.

        It’s their server, and their community. They can do whatever they want. You don’t have to post there

          I don’t, but unfortunately the rest of the lemmy community needs to learn that lesson still. Hence my PSA that attempts to educate others.
