PC is mind control. The control is a gambit to control language and thought.

Any one espousing PC is an American enemy and needs to be exterminated

We can not co exist

I and my family did, for YEARS! Well, technically, I was too young to “pick” cotton, so I “pulled” cotton. Of course, unless you have actually done that kind of work, you probably wouldn’t know the difference!

My paternal grandmother owned 65 acres of land in northeast Mississippi. Every year, I think usually in October, we would take two or three days out of school and pick cotton. My father used to say, “You want new school shoes? You will pick cotton!” He wasn’t kidding, either!

The first, and last time I saw Darkies picking cotton the old fashioned way was on a trip by bus through South central Arkansas in 1968. I thought I was in the OLD SOUTH for a moment.

Most places out West Texas were using mechanical pickers.

Plenty of whites picked cotton, too.

Both of my (white) parents picked cotton in their youth.
