The most important question is: What does Arthur Chu think?
[quote name="skip"]Hahaha. You guys know exactly what he thinks. Anti-GG has Arthur Chu which is possibly the worst thing to have on your side. Fuck this boring drama about a Nintendo whore. His latest gems are on how Thomas Jefferson is overrated because he didn't always pay his bills. Quotes because one day he may delete all his Tweets and this deserves to live forever. [quote][quote]"Is anyone else wondering why Apple decided we needed a calendar reminder for Jefferson's birthday?"[/quote] Jefferson did good things but he was very well compensated for them in life on top of living off of unpaid labor so [/quote] Is he so retarded he thinks that being well-off is a crime? He didn't have air conditioning, a car, or access to vaccines so anyone who does anything noteworthy since 1965 doesn't deserve to be remembered as they are relatively privileged. And is he seriously getting self-righteous because Jefferson owned slaves in the 1700s? [quote]You'd think it'd be worth more effort to posthumously remember people who didn't die rich and happy[/quote] He is. I'm all for trying to make sure history is fair but dying happy doesn't mean you get erased from the history books after you've fucking written the Declaration of Independence and brokered the Louisiana Purchase. [quote]Jefferson owned a slave plantation and still went bankrupt & got bailed out by friends bc "He's Thomas Jefferson!" like 3 times[/quote] [quote]Sorry but if you can go bankrupt while owning human beings you force to work for you for free then you just suck at what you do[/quote] He's not remembered for his ability to run a plantation, holy fuck. [quote]Also he raped a teenage girl & got away with it. In fact he's arguably still getting away with it judging by how ppl talk about it[/quote] If Jefferson did fuck a teenage Sally Hemings, it's fine as Alison Rapp wrote an essay how this is okay. [quote]20th century white historian: "Actually the management of an antebellum plantation was a financially complex exercise in" Fuck off dude[/quote] All those historians who rate Jefferson as one of our greatest presidents, you're wrong and Chu is here to set you straight. Has to be a "white" historian because that signals that any financial subtleties about owning or maintaining a plantation are null and void. Jefferson accomplished more in his life than anyone in Arthur Chu's family in the past and future 6 generations, combined, ever will. [/quote]
