Collectors will be scrambling for anything Splash Mountain right now.
Hope you're ready to put up with years worth of whining then.No, I’m sure the guy whining about splash mountain is the one who is fun at parties hahaha
That would be erasing history; I just got done saying we're teaching more of it, with more depth, and from more perspectives than in the previous few generations. Not sure what you're arguing, here.1984
It doesn't actually work in reverse. You see, if people find it offensive you don't get to discount that.
This is mostly untrue. The North beat the South by wide margins in everything from railroad mileage to value of exports. The only advantage the South has was in quantity of cotton and tobacco. The North still produces half the corn and the majority of the wheats and oats even though a smaller percent of the population was engaged in agriculture. The efficiency was due to mechanization. The fact was that the Northern economy was more efficient because it did not rely on slavery. The South was destroyed after the war. It is simply untrue that American wealth was built off slavery.There's a nuance to that: the South was the nation's economic engine through its earliest days, especially once the cotton gin was patented, though even beforehand the richest men at the Constitutional Convention were almost universally slaveholding plantation owners. By the 1850s, however, the Industrial Revolution was well underway in America, and the entrenched plantation interests of the South basically worked to keep the factories from spreading into their regions, a factor that ensured the North would have major infrastructure and supply advantages in the ensuing war, that much is true.
However, the South still stood to benefit from slavery in two ways: one was through the practice of filibusting, in which pro-slavery Americans traveled to other western hemisphere countries, typically places that had only recently shaken off Spanish colonial authority, and attempt coups to install pro-American governments, and from there legalize slavery in these countries to create, as it was called, a dreamed of "Empire of Cotton", that would stretch from the border of the Mason-Dixon line all the way down to South America. Thankfully, that vision never came to pass outside of the pro-slavery land-grab that was the Mexican War.
Still, even during the war the South's cotton nearly won it a major advantage, as being the world's main provider of affordable cotton almost drew Great Britain, among other nations, to side with the Confederacy and actively take up arms against the United States. One of the many tactical decisions behind the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation was to put it in writing that the war was now explicitly about slavery, a move that forced Britain and other European powers, having recently ended slavery within large tracts of their own empires, to pull back their potential support.
The quality of mercy is not strained.
Dude, you're basically just saying this but without any of the irony. You sure that's the way you want to debate?

Nope, Not this time. It’s pick a side now if you’re on the left. I’m remaining steadfast. They can call me , sellout, etc. all they want. It’s sickening. It’s too many good people in this world. I remember a time where the conservative and the liberal could argue their point and at the end of the day we were Americans. We have issues, but what country doesn’t. Now, since the disease has spread America is done.Definitely! I don’t see an end to this craziness how about yourself?

I can't believe that woke people are ok with all those animatronics depicting "racist, white men" still standing up there, but far more offended by a rabbit and catchy toon.You know that the HoP intro film was changed to address the horrors of slavery and its long lasting impact on our culture, right? I'm mean, you're a Disney fan posting in a WDW forum, so surely you remember that HoP was already changed to address systemic oppression because of our history of owning people becuase of the color of their skin, and how we need to keep fighting for equality and civil rights of all people, right?
We will hopefully get some good footage given the chance.I hope someone on this site could make a full 360 hd film of the ride before it is destroyed.
How? Jamaicans, Haitians and Dominicans are the same as African Americans. They where slaves brought from Africa. Just because they speak different language doesn't make them different. They are equally offended about this ride and what is happening in the U.S.
