They want to pretend that we aren`t a nation that thrived on Imperialism and Expansionism? Good luck with that.
..as did every other powerful nation, as did the Incas, and the Aztecs, and the Arabs..and..
...that's the assumption that is left out. There's no equivalency. So, while the narrative of the US being the beneficial Democracy bringing good guy is BS, the presumption that the white people came in and did all of these horrible things no one HAD EVER done before is also complete BS, and that's basically the position of the average PC liberal.
The Aztecs were as brutal to their neighbors as the Spanish....neighboring groups assisted the Spanish in taking them down. This part of the story is completely left out of the Rage Against the Machine college liberal left...you'd think the Aztecs were tiptoeing through the tulips practicing hippy communism when the Spanish arrived by the narrative being told.
The truth is actually in the middle. And it's good that we have institutions that have introspection enough to question how we came about. Do you think the Aztecs had self-loathing PC types running their "learning institutions" telling everyone how their empire came about from evil?
what is pathetic is this sophmoric post based on nothing.
The militant globilist authoritarians have had a foothold on text books and education institutions for decades.
Correct there should be history taught without being "pro-american". History should be taught in a objective manner. Just teach/ write about the facts of exactly what occurred.
K-12 history books today are whitewashed and full of bias.
Progressives have the run on education..they always have.

In the 50's Kruschev said America will embrace Communism. It will be done without shedding a drop of blood. It will be done through our youth. Threads like these and the posts that show up on this board are proof positive that has happened.
The mob isn't the free market. You are clueless. Must be that new age education you have/are receiving
The business owner determined that it was in the best interest of his business to fire the employee. That is a perfect example of the free market and private property rights in action. Are you saying that business owners shouldn't be able to make that kind of decision? I thought that was one of the most sacred totems of conservatism - private property rights and free market capitalism.

Ummm, no..It had NOTHING to do with the free market. It would have been the free market if he started losing customers over it THEN fired the waitress, which he didn't. What he did was give in to the authoritarian mob.

I thought conservatives supported the right of the business owner to make that decision for themselves. Is that no longer true?

No it's not. It's an example of "Trial by social media" and how powerful they are becoming.
The problem there though is that the social media crowd don't need any facts. They are driven by emotion.
