    I pointed to slave markets in New York and you’re rolling out revanchist neo-confederate talking points.

      im not rolling them out dude, im saying that slavery was the primary issue even if those talking points had any ounce of truth to them. i only brought it up because I expected you to try and deploy that shitty argument and wanted to get ahead of it.
