are you saying the FBI also wiretapped Jefferson?
I’m saying people have cognitive dissonance on the humanity of great men.
Yeah, yeah, yeah…MLKjr was a womanizer. He plagiarized. And that is truly reprehensible.
Jefferson owned slaves and impregnated one of them. Also reprehensible.
Some people get all triggered when leftists trash Jefferson. The triggered people point out how fundamental to America was this flawed man. True dat.
But those same triggered folks, asking us consider the context of slave-ownership, pig-pile on MLKjr’s sins. Sure, he didn’t found America. But he generally worked toward - and succeeded in - making this nation greater…which is more than can be said for the cognitively-dissonant.
