The shepherd drives the wolf from the sheep’s throat, for which the sheep thanks the shepherd as a liberator, while the wolf denounces him for the same act as the destroyer of liberty, especially as the sheep was a black one. Plainly the sheep and the wolf are not agreed upon a definition of the word liberty.

Quoted from Abraham Lincoln

WTF does the sheep's colour have to go with liberty? Do black sheep taste better? I thought their colour only mattered to humans because humans like to dye their woolen garments. A wolf doesn't need to dye clothes.

He probably was drawing the analogy with the landowners exploiting black people.

And black sheep are rejected by the flock apparently.

Oh okay. So what does racists complaining that the government freed slaves have to do with soulism?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

TBH I didn't understand your soulism comment or how it is connected with your original comment.

I was really just supporting your original comment.

Oh, okay. Soulism expands on the fact that everything is a bias.
