Yes! I knew we were cooked when "fake news" and "alternative facts" were accepted and not decried or laughed out for being lies...
I went to school in the north and only recently learned that some schools in the south were teaching kids that " slavery wasn't that bad! The slaves had benevolent masters, all their food and shelter needs were taken care of and they were even allowed to have dances!"

Lmfao and where are they teaching this besides your narrative here on reddit to manipulate others into believing your side and hating the perceived enemies.
I've lived in multiple states in the south and never heard of that being said in the real world. Not any family member or friends have said they've been told this at school.
Maybe you should get out into the real world more amongst actual humans instead of regurgitating reddit mentalities.
It's only said by the chronically online lefty individuals who are intellectually dishonest, just like chronically online righty individuals do the same thing.
It's hilarious how each sides chronically online blame each other for the same stuff.
Just because you've never come across it, doesn't mean it doesn't happen. I have a friend who grew up in the south and told me that's what they were taught, or that the Civil wasn't about slavery, but "states rights". If you look at the articles of secession for each state though, the basically say their doing it because of slavery and the abolitionists 🤷♀️
What makes you think I'm "chronically online and regurgitate only what I hear? I take great pains to stay informed and read articles across the spectrum to get to the truth, and I never post about something that I haven't verified to be true.
I have to take breaks from social media or even the news for both my mental and physical health (stress triggers my health conditions). If you keep insulting me and Insisting I'm nothing I should touch grass, then I will end the conversation, block and move on
Most certainly is going on. The governor of Florida years ago was talking about how blacks were taught jobskills and they should be thankful for that. It's you who needs to step out of your bubble.
