Whitefield got cancelled last week for being an advocate of slavery. Never mind the fact that he ran orphanages for black children, taught black children to read while it was still illegal to in South Carolina, and was one of the most significant figures of the colonial era. UPenn is took his statue down. Glad I bought 2 volumes of his sermons when I did.

Well, I think slavery in Hebrew/Jewish society was more humane since the slaves had some human rights. But slavery in Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome probably was more on par with American slavery since I read that Marcus Cato treated his slaves by overworking them and physically abusing them with the whip and stuff like that, that's what I can remember from some of Plutarch that I've read.

The entire world considered slavery normal a few hundred years ago. Except maybe for the aboriginals, every people was involved in it. But in the case of white people; freeze, amplify, problematize.

It's just another step in their gradualistic approach to de-construct germanic/anglo-saxon culture and to induce shame and passivity. On top of those ashes they can then build their new synthetic construct, newspeak and wrongthink included.

If you can't change it via normal democratic routes, you can change it by creating fake crises to circumvent democratic means.

The law literally made it so that you could only be a slave for 7 years, and only through debt you owed. If you wanted to stay on longer as a slave you could (housing, food, etc.). If there is only 1 bed, the slave gets the bed. It was more attune to being under a wage slave contract for 7 years than anything else, and again, depending on thew debt, it could have been much shorter.

sure, who else would topple a statue of fred douglas? the point isnt that nazis don't topple statues, it's that "the problem all along was actually that neo-nazis were false flagging" has no foot in reality

/pol/ doesn't care if someone is a jew or non-white, as long as they don't act out on their ethnic subversive desires. Nobody dislikes Cervantes for maybe being a kikel, just like nobody cares for Dumas being half a jogger. And certainly no one on /pol/ would go out of their way to destroy part of the actual western canon, when there is barely anything left of it in our daily lifes to begin with.

Your whole argument honestly sounds more like projection, from hat you would like to do. The whole cancelling culture is based on this ideology and you, subconsciously showed to share it.

I seen this a while ago and actually took the time to fact check it. I searched each volume for one of the names on that list until I eventually found it, I think in the second or third volume. Unsurprisingly, like almost all nazi propaganda, it's total bullshit. If I recall right, the names there do show up in the log, but there's a shit ton of other names too. And the log looks nothing like that. And of course they didn't actually track the ethnicity/religion of any of the ship owners either because why the fuck would you bother? The biggest mistake that the shill who created this image made was choosing a "source" that's readily available on the internet, even if it's a pain in the ass to actually find the part of the text that it's misrepresenting. They would've been better off just having no source at all like most of this retarded propaganda.

So the first force fighting the artist was the government. The second force tackling the nineteenth-century Russian author was the anti-governmental, social-minded utilitarian criticism, the political, civic, radical thinkers of the day. It must be stressed that these men in general culture, honesty, aspirations, mental activity, and human virtue were immeasurably superior to the rogues in the government's pay or to the muddled old reactionaries that clustered around the shivering throne. The radical critic was concerned exclusively with the welfare of the people and regarded everything—literature, science, philosophy —as only a means to improve the social and economic situation of the underdog and to alter the political structure of his country. He was incorruptible, heroic, indifferent to the privations of exile, but also indifferent to the niceties of art. These men who fought despotism—the fiery Belinski of the forties, the stubborn Chernyshevski and Dobrolyubov of the fifties and sixties, Mihaylovski, the well-meaning bore, and dozens of other honest obstinate men—all may be grouped under one heading: political radicalism affiliated to the old French social thinkers and to German materialists, foreshadowing the revolutionary socialism and stolid communism of recent years, and not to be confused with Russian Liberalism in its true sense, which was absolutely the same as cultured democracy elsewhere in Western Europe and America. In looking through old periodicals of the sixties and seventies, one is astounded to find what violent ideas these men were able to express in a country ruled by an absolute monarch. But with all their virtues, these radical critics were as great a nuisance in regard to art as was the government. Government and revolution, the Tsar and the Radicals, were both philistines in art. The radical critics fought despotism, but they evolved a despotism of their own. The claims, the promptings, the theories that they tried to enforce were in themselves just as irrelevant to art as was the conventionalism of the administration. What they demanded of an author was a social message and no nonsense, and from their point of view a book was good only insofar as it was of practical use to the welfare of the people. There was a disastrous flaw in their fervor. Sincerely and boldly they advocated freedom and equality but they contradicted their own creed by wishing to subjugate the arts to current politics. If in the opinion of the Tsars authors were to be the servants of the state, in the opinion of the radical critics writers were to be the servants of the masses. The two lines of thought were bound to meet and join forces when at last, in our times, a new kind of regime, the synthesis of a Hegelian triad, combined the idea of the masses with the idea of the state.

[Anonymous No.15806472]

One of the best examples of the clash between the artist and his critics in the twenties and thirties of the nineteenth century is the case of Pushkin, Russia's first great writer. Officialdom headed by Tsar Nicholas himself was madly irritated by this man who instead of being a good servant of the state in the rank and file of the administration and extolling conventional virtues in his vocational writings (if write he must), composed extremely arrogant and extremely independent and extremely wicked verse in which a dangerous freedom of thought was evident in the novelty of his versification, in the audacity of his sensual fancy, and in his propensity for making fun of major and minor tyrants. The church deplored his levity. Police officers, high officials, critics in the pay of the government dubbed him a shallow versificator; and because he emphatically refused to use his pen for copying humdrum acts in a governmental office, Pushkin, one of the best educated Europeans of his day, was called an ignoramus by Count Thingamabob and a dunce by General Donner-wetter. The methods which the state employed in its attempts to throttle Pushkin's genius were banishment, fierce censorship, constant pestering, fatherly admonishment, and finally a favorable attitude toward the local scoundrels who eventually drove Pushkin to fight his fatal duel with a wretched adventurer from royalist France.

[Anonymous No.15806476]

Now, on the other hand, the immensely influential radical critics, who in spite of absolute monarchy managed to voice their revolutionary opinions and hopes in widely read periodicals—these radical critics who blossomed forth in the last years of Pushkin's short life, were also madly irritated by this man who instead of being a good servant of the people and of social endeavor wrote extremely subtle and extremely independent and extremely imaginative verse about all things on earth, the very variety of his interests somehow lessening the value of revolutionary intention that might be discerned in his casual, too casual, pokes at minor or major tyrants. The audacity of his versification was deplored as being an aristocratic adornment; his artistic aloofness was pronounced a social crime; mediocre writers but sound political thinkers dubbed Pushkin a shallow versificator. In the sixties and seventies famous critics, the idols of public opinion, called Pushkin a dunce, and emphatically proclaimed that a good pair of boots was far more important for the Russian people than all the Pushkins and Shakespeares in the world. In comparing the exact epithets used by the extreme radicals with those used by the extreme monarchists in regard to Russia's greatest poet, one is struck by their awful similarity.

> If I, an American writer, decide to write an unconventional novel about, say, a happy atheist, an independent Bostonian, who marries a beautiful Negro girl, also an atheist, has lots of children, cute little agnostics, and lives a happy, good, and gentle life to the age of 106, when he blissfully dies in his sleep — it is quite possible that despite your brilliant talent, Mr. Nabokov, we feel [in such cases we don't think, we feel] that no American publisher could risk bringing out such a book simply because no bookseller would want to handle it. This is a publisher's opinion, and everybody has the right to have an opinion. Nobody would exile me to the wilds of Alaska for having my happy atheist published after all by some shady experimental firm; and on the other hand, authors in America are never ordered by the government to produce magnificent novels about the joys of free enterprise and of morning prayers.
