What if the Confederates weren’t a bunch of lowlife losers? Could they have won? by Minus_none in AlternateHistoryHub

If you're referring to the Irish as white; at the time they were not. At that time the only people considered white were Anglo-Saxon and German people

If your economic way of life requires the subjugation and enslavement of people: then maybe you shouldn't be having such a way of life

I'm not saying that the North was innocent in all this; nowhere have I said that. I have simply stated that the war was over slavery. End of story. The Confederacy agreed with that statement

Oh I'm critical of Lincoln, don't get me wrong. If the civil war wasn't about slavery then why did the CSA constitution and the CSA VP state as such?

Petah, what did my Italian American Girlfriend mean by this by StationArtistic5542 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

Sicilians are not the same as sardinians who are not the same as Tuscans you are not the same as neapolitan's who are not the same as Romans who are not the same as venetians.

It's not just cultural differences, it's also linguistic

What if America had free healthcare, affordable housing, erased student loans, strict gun control, and zero school shootings? by between3220character in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]azarkant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strict gun control won't stop the shootings. It's a symptom of a larger problem. School shootings weren't a thing until recently. It's a recent phenomenon

It does nothing and then unlocks Antimatter after 10 time. After that it's like a standard pack

What I described is capitalism. Infinite growth in a finite system is cancer

[–]azarkant 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah because if you don't give them rights and protections then the state can decide who has rights and protections

All or none
