we've all read the story we're given. they fought to end TAXATION right?

did you know that not long before the American colonies rebelled that a legal precendent was set in courts in England that made slavery unrecognized in England.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Somerset_v_Stewart

the particular case involved an man who lived in Boston and bought a slave who was then unrecognized by the British. THIS IS WHAT PROVOKED THE REVOLUTION.

The Revolutionary War was fought so that the plantation owners could own slaves. THATS THE TRUTH.
>>
>>79363967
No the Texas revolution was fought so that we could keep owning slaves.
Quit appropriating Texas history.
>>
>>79363967
actually it was fought so that Americans could steal more land from the Natives. The South was actually one of the more Loyalist regions.

the story we are given is that a bunch of really awesome white guys decided they didnt want to be controlled by the british empire. of course its a coincidence they were all extremely wealthy plantation owners(virtually all our presidents descend from these people).

ITS FUCKING HOGWASH.

>>79363967
The Brits were literally throwing our currency into the ocean. They were excersizing their mercantilist power to shut our economy off and on. They kept fucking with us to try and preserve their economic relationship with India. We had enough, and declared independence.
>>
>>79364433

that's the supposed story we got

funny how we fought for this "freedom" but forgot that we actually had millions of slaves, the bulk of which were owned by a handful of americans.

America was founded as a slave plantation by extremely immoral people. It has been led by such ever since.
>>
Wrong. Here is the redpill on the American Revolution:

After the French and Indian War, Britain levied a series of taxes to help offset the debt they incurred during the war. They felt it was it was the colonists' obligation to pay off those debts, since it was their land they were defending. Due to the war, there was a shortage in the colonies of material to mint coins, and so the colonies began printing their own paper money, called colonial script. And guess who was bothered by that? That's right. Our old friends the Rothschilds, who, of course, owned the Bank of England and had heavy influence over Parliament.

Benjamin Franklin explains:

>"That is simple. In the colonies we issue our own money. It is called Colonial Script. We issue it in proper proportion to the demands of trade and industry to make the products pass easily from the producers to the consumers.

>In this manner, creating for ourselves our own paper money, we control its purchasing power, and we have no interest to pay to no one."

Not that last part. The colonies had no interest to pay on the money they printed, unconnected from the Bank of England. The Rothschilds could not let that stand and pressured Parliament to pass the Currency Act of 1764, outlawing the printing of colonial script. This was the first of many laws to follow that raised tensions between the colonists and the Rothschild controlled British Parliament, which spiraled into Revolution.

>"The colonies would gladly have borne the little tax on tea and other matters had it not been that England took away from the colonies their money, which created unemployment and dissatisfaction. The inability of the colonists to get power to issue their own money permanently out of the hands of George III and the international bankers was the PRIME reason for the Revolutionary War." -Benjamin Franklin

Do you deny the Rothschilds' ownership of the Bank of England, and their logical dissatisfaction with the colonists printing their own money?

You're fighting the wrong enemy, my basketball-American friend.

>>79363967
The revolutionary war was fought because George Washington and a bunch of his friends were pissed off that they had basically zero chance of ever achieving high office in the British Empire despite being very capable statesmen. Benjamin Franklin may have been the darling of England, but he was never even considered for any serious post because he was a provincial.

Washington deliberately disobeyed orders by attacking the French, starting the 7 Years War which drastically damaged British power, and forced them to recoup those losses through taxation. That taxation was then used as a premise to appeal to the common American for a revolution. It worked.

It was not about slavery at all, most of the Founding Fathers weren't slave owners, and if it weren't for the Southern States it probably would have been made illegal from the outset. The American Revolution was an ideologically-driven attempt at establishing a Republic free from European Monarchy in the New World.

It succeeded. It is important to note that the only reason it succeeded was that there existed at the time a class of highly educated and highly motivated, but disenfranchized white men who knew they would never reach their full potential unless something changed, and they worked to bring that change around through partially clandestine means.
>>
>>79365553

do you deny that America was run by wealthy slave owning plantation owners?

are they innocent somehow and the Rothschilds are to blame for all this?

seems any time I point out the guilt of white america someone tries to divert attention to jews.

SLAVERY WAS THE PRIMARY AND SINGULAR SOURCE OF AMERICAN WEALTH

there was one reason and one reason alone as to why people were here- to profit from slavery(or they were slaves).
>>
>>79365677
Uh, yes? The founding fathers weren't all slave owners moron, and the average American--particularly not quakers--would not have fought the war so that some rich guys could own slaves.
>>
>>79365677
The minority of founding fathers that held slaves inherited the institution, just as you inherited jury duty or the English tongue. It's all they knew, and when they came of age, all of the prominent ones disclaimed the institution.

But did you know it was Jewish shipping magnates from Spain and Portugal that established the triangle trade and created that environment, those circumstances, that the founding fathers were unwitting born into?

How come blacks are so afraid to peek behind the curtain?

>>79365800
Nope. Maybe 1% of Americans owned slaves at the height of slave ownership. The great majority of people were settlers, pioneers and trappers. Slavery barely factored into it at all in the North--which of course is where most of the support for the war came from.
>>
>>79365846

youre an idiot.

even the early "pilgrims" had rules about slaves so obviously people owned them. this idea that people came to america to build log cabins, worship jayzus, and bring civilization to this continent is PURE SHIT.

people came here to PROFIT by EXPLOITATION.

>But did you know it was Jewish shipping magnates from Spain and Portugal that established the triangle trade and created that environment, those circumstances, that the founding fathers were unwitting born into?

omg its amazing to what extent you make excuses for these people and deflect blame onto jews. youre pathetic.
>>
>>79366063
I'm not deflecting any blame. I am putting this conversation into a proper historical context. You want to look at a piece of the picture, not the whole picture. I think that's irresponsible and nothing can be learned from that. Is it not true that Washington, et al. were born on slave plantations? Did they not inherit this institution and grow up seeing it as normal? Did they not call it an abomination when they reached adulthood and thought about the practice rationally? They did.

But did they create that institution? They did not. Jews, however, did.
>>
>>79365969
Nope. Most people who came over were poor settlers and trappers. Some people owned them, sure, but it was not especially common until later. The first slave owner was also a black man who sued the government to be allowed to indefinitely hold his black indentured servant, so there's that.

If you have some evidence to the contrary you are free to provide it, but as you are just trolling and don't actually believe what you're saying, you will not.
>>
>>79366253

so the ones making huge profits off slaves

who see them with their own eyes every day

who continue to purchase and use slaves despite this

are somehow less to blame than jews

who MIGHT have participated in the slave trade.

What would you have had them do? They were born into an economic system that depended on slave labor, and had no industrial revolution to transition into or large enough immigrant population to employ in their stead. Pulling the rug out from under their economy would have bankrupted the colonies and impoverished everyone, white man and slave alike. The goal of the founding fathers was to lay the groundwork so that it could be abolished over time without disrupting the economy and destroying a young nation just as it was born. Remember, we were a small child at birth. 13 lousy colonies at the edge of a far away continent, beset on all sides by great empires and savage natives. Destroying our economy would have killed those slaves. Starved them. They would have simply perished in the depression that followed. Is that what you'd prefer?

The Jews were not expelled from your American colonies. They had communities in Brazil. The Dutch Jews were also involved.

>The Jews were the recipients of favorable charters containing generous economic privileges granted by the Dutch West Indies Company in Amsterdam. The economic life of the Jewish community of Curacao revolved around ownership of sugar plantations and marketing of sugar, the importing of manufactured goods, and a heavy involvement in the slave trade, within a decade of their arrival, Jews owned 80 percent of the Curacao plantations. The strength of the Jewish trade lay in connections in Western Europe as well as ownership of the ships used in commerce. While Jews carried on an active trade with French and English colonies in the Caribbean, their principal market was the Spanish Main (today Venezuela and Colombia).

>Extant tax lists give us a glimpse of their dominance. Of the eighteen wealthiest Jews in the 1702 and 1707 tax lists, nine either owned a ship or had at least a share in a vessel. By 1721 a letter to the Amsterdam Jewish community claimed that "nearly all the navigation...was in the hands of the Jews."' Yet another indication of the economic success of Curacao's Jews is the fact that in 1707 the island's 377 residents were assessed by the Governor and his Council a total of 4,002 pesos; 104 Jews, or 27.6 percent of the taxpayers, contributed 1,380 pesos, or 34.5 percent of the entire amount assessed.

I don't see what I said that's so unreasonable. Would destroying the economic backbone of a vulnerable nation not lead to depression and perhaps even invasion and conquest? Why would ex-slaves dying in poverty of starvation, disease, and crime, be any better than living in bondage. Is that what you believe?

Are you using that word to mean people colluding in secret for personal gain?

Because the definition changed about 6-7 years ago.

Here's my 4th great grandfather and a list of his property. My nth great grandfather was a loyalist to Britain during the American revolution and was captured and hung by Whigs.

I'm owed reparations for stolen and destroyed property. I'm his direct paternal descendant so the damages should go to me. The value of twenty two stolen slaves and his home being burned down would be worth quite a lot of money today. I should be paid the equivalent in value.
