Happy #BlackHistoryMonth !

Still not talking about Black history. Still talking about white US history.

Q: Why do so many Black folk call Abraham Lincoln a white supremacist? He freed the slaves! Why don't Black folk have pictures of Lincoln up in their house? Are they ungrateful?

A: Because Abraham Lincoln was a white supremacist, and one of the worst kinds. He was an "I know Black folk aren't inferior, but hey man, it's an 'us or them' thing, and I choose us to be in the superior position."

@mekkaokereke I quoted your post and linked to it, because my server shows quoted posts, and my mobile client which ignores those shows previews of links. Despite doing both, it now doesn’t show that I boosted your post! Mastodon is.. oh well.

Thank you for keeping at this. I don’t want it to be a thankless task!
