re: #234 Targetpractice

It was the “temporarily embarrassed millionaires” bit of its day, convincing poor white folks that if abolitionism won, then they would forever lose any hope of raising their own social station so that they might one day own a plantation with hundreds of slaves keeping them wealthy.

Or LBJs convince a poor white man he’s better than a black man. I’d love an alternative history where poor whites and blacks destroy the slave owning aristocracy.
