CosmicRay @bobful.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Rebellion against the crown began well before the declaration of independence. So 50 yrs before Britain's abolition is a better number. Still, Britain continued to make heavy cash from American slavery right up to 1865. Overturning Roe took about 50 years, but I don't see the comparison. 100
CosmicRay @bobful.bsky.social · 03/10/2026I get that. Thanks for saying it. However much we "viewers" enjoy her happy reaction it is still her personal life and all the cameras turned that into our public entertainment. So I'm sorry for that, but still glad for her happiness. 010
CosmicRay @bobful.bsky.social · 03/10/2026My comment here was countering the notion that the American Revolution was a reaction against Britains abolition of slavery. As you confirm, that abolition was much later. You say our civil war was fought to keep slavery? There were two sides in that war. 210
CosmicRay @bobful.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Cool story, but it was Britain that instituted slavery in its american colonies in the first place. Mansfield's decision only prevented slaves in Britain from being removed from Britain, and the Slavery Abolition Act wasn't passed until 1833. The sins of the US did not have a virgin birth. 100
CosmicRay @bobful.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Most states in the US ceased using the death penalty long ago. It might be an easy guess on which ones still use it. So thanks for the insulting stereotype but Canada used capital punishment until 1998. You arent saints either. 100
CosmicRay @bobful.bsky.social · 03/10/2026It was obviously planned. But I don't think she was in on it, and that plan made her pretty happy. A successful plan. 011
CosmicRay @bobful.bsky.social · 03/10/2026The idea that no one was asking her is written on her face at the start of the clip. He chose to break the stupid stereotypes and make her happy. It's a nice little story. Does it really need to be more than that? 190
