      I wasn’t taught much from the “slavery is good” angle in GA. It was more subtle, framed as mostly information about the goods traded and what slaves produced for the countries they were in. Like, it was all about the slave trade industry and not how awful the conditions were.

      Lots of information glossed over in favor of capitalism.

        I think TheJims was referencing the fact that Florida has recently added the explicit idea that slaves benefited from slavery (that they developed skills, for example, being one of the things they claim the slaves benefited from) to their curriculum.

        Honestly the use of the wrong paid and mispelling highest makes this comment even better.

        You fucked up by using the correct there/their though.
