Reply to comment by monkeypox_69 in TIL, that by 1860, there were nearly 4 million people enslaved in the United States. by MookieV
Yeah native Americans were branding each other with irons, whipping each other to death, separating families, selling people on auction blocks, transporting tons of other natives in the worst conditions, cutting off limbs for those who escaped

Terrible stuff, can we all agree this was bad and belongs in the past? But no, America had slaves so bad, evil and wrong. I'm not excusing the ugliness of the past but fuck man if we can't get past those times, there is no future.
