Briefly the us was the good guys when we killed a bunch of slavers and then when we killed a bunch of fascists. Those were exceptions to the rule though.
They were clearly talking about the Union during the Civil War...
What's the relevance of the founding fathers, then?
I'm repeating the words you used. What's the relevance?
They also killed the Nazis, except for the ones that were useful, of course.
Nobody said the founding fathers killed slavers?
So you at least understand the comment you replied to wasn't talking about the founding fathers... So why fucking bring them up?
Re-read the comment chain chief.
"Briefly the us was the good guys when we killed a bunch of slavers"
"Looks at founding fathers… Yeah killed the slavers."
Nobody said the founding fathers killed the slavers. Yes, the founding fathers were slavers. They were dead by the time the civil war came around, at which point the US was briefly the good guys when yes, they did in fact kill slavers. You're being deliberately obtuse.
