I didn't say that. Listen, if you want to make up an argument go ahead. Have fun acting like a dumbass.
I asked for any source and you linked some (inadequate) secondary sources below that simply discuss that sharecropping was discriminatory. Slavery wasn't bad just because it was racist, and you clearly thought that was the case. I'd be happy to provide a reading list when I have a minute.
Also, you not only said that, but you said it multiple times explicitly throughout this thread. Bud, you gotta stop pretending to know about shit you clearly don't know well enough about.
What is the serious fuck are you talking about!? I was pointing out the end of slavery didn't materially improve the lives of sharecroppers in the South. Life got worse, not better which is a conundrum if you believe in a progressive movement in history. They had no protection, they were raped and murdered at will. I am not saying it was better than slavery but rather a new form of torture.
You have got to be trolling or perhaps acting stupid on purpose. I really don't care at this point.
You seriously have to start reading your own comments before you post them. Reread the thread ✌️
You expect me to believe you have zero reading comprehension!? Go troll someone else and stop acting like a dumbass.
