You typed 3 words to divide the room so yeah I assumed you were up to no good. Downvotes have always aimed to hide unproductive comments. How is "L take brother." productive? Don't answer that, it's rhetorical.
My family settled in New England in 1630 so I'm a fan of that era - not sure how 'ex-colonies' is "deeply" racist either. Both sides had blood on their hands during the three French and Indian Wars and had healthy commerce in between said wars. Tying that phrase to racism is textbook ignorance (you don't know what you don't know).
Thanks for offering more than 3 words eventually.
the ROI is they get future foot soldiers
