I don't know, I wrote down several times that black people died and you're dismissive of it, because at least they freed em first. I don't know how much more I can break it down.

You're not actually responding with rebuttals, you're just saying naïvely, "north freed black people. Doesn't matter how many died from racist attacks and infrastructure. Because they fought to free them." that's insane logic. The north made few steps to prevent discrimination against blacks, even preventing them from voting in some areas. The rest of the country did too, I wonder why? Maybe it's because america is a country founded on racism. Or more accurately discrimination of the unseemly. The unwanted. The outcasts of society. It was blacks, Jews, Irish, Italians, Polish, Arabians, southeast Asians, Indians, American Indians. The list goes on.

We will always have racism and I wish I had your optimism. It's admirable. But I have seen far too much of the horrors of the world up close, to ever believe humanity will get better. I'm sorry you weren't able to convince me, and I you. I hope you are able to see the future you yearn for.
