Cable Guy posted:Maybe wait till it ticks to a new page...? See if that helps? whenever it gets ‘stuck’ it will remain that way until a set number of posts are made in it. for some reason that number is always the same for each page in a thread but it’s different from thread to thread. it’s weird. but yeah this thread will now get ‘stuck’ for a few posts on every page so if you see phantom posts then

TulliusCicero posted:I know this is way late, but what congressional seats is this sun downing dipshit even referencing? Since Ossof they have lost almost everything, not even mentioning that Alabama has a dem senator because of Donnie's dumb rear end. i THINK this is how he gets this number. He thinks 'Congress' and 'the House' are the same thing so Roy Moore losing doesn't count. He's also ignoring the CA-34 election where a republican didn't even contest. So you have KS-4 (Pompeo's old seat) - R+15 district, R won by 6% MT-AL (Zinke) - R+11 district, R won by 6% GA-6 (Price) - R+8, R won by 3% SC-5 (Mulvaney) - R+9, R won by 3% UT-3 (Chaffetz) - R+25, R won by 32%

GreyjoyBastard posted:The Liberian experiment is a weird duck in that a bunch of American black nationalists were 200% in favor of the idea. tl;dr: The Liberia experiment sorta did work, in that the returned slaves went all Andrew Jackson on the indigenous Liberians, wrote in their constitution that only black people can be citizens or own property, and every president until 1980 was a descendant of ex-slaves and never a native Liberian. The Liberia experiment sorta did work, just not in the way that we appreciate today. The folks that got settled were called the "Congo people": black freemen, former slaves, and in some cases people off of intercepted slave-ships who'd never gotten to the Americas. I'm simplifying, but the Congos got to Liberia and pretty shortly started using their superior position, weapons, and American backing to attack the indigenous Liberians. I was going to say "enslave" because that was my understanding, but some googling tells me that slavery was banned there from the get-go, so I'll just say "caused the indigenous Liberians to labor for them under sub-optimal conditions." They steadily grew the country by seizing tribal land, since Liberia was much smaller at the start. Basically, the Congos did to Liberia what white people did to North America, so you can draw some Israel/Palestine parallels there in terms of past experience informing future experience. Oh, and taking their cue from past experience, the Congos required voters to be (legal not tribal) private landowners, disenfranchising most of the indigenous Liberians. And fascinatingly enough their Constitution requires that to be a citizen or own property in Liberia, a person must be "of Negro blood". So the Lebanese and Indians expatriates who "own" properties in Liberia do so by funding a Liberian friend/employee to buy and own the property, with the unwritten understanding (probably backed by threats) that the expat will be the de facto but not de jure owner. I worked in Liberia for a small company, and when we were thinking about buying a housing/office space, we briefly considered bringing my American cousin (his dad is black and married my aunt) over to Liberia to "own" the property and "rent" it to the company. The Congos ended up basically ruling Liberia despite being a small minority, and every single president of Liberia was a Congo until 1980 when Doe (an ethnic Krahn) pulled a coup and seized power. He gets overthrown, and eventually tortured and murdered in front of news cameras while an insurgent general sips a (shudder) Bud Light while watching Doe's ears get cut off. I'm getting into the weeds, but the point is that "repatriating" former slaves to Liberia was effective in that it got them a techically-democratic state, run by black people and never colonized by white people even during the Scramble for Africa, and under the minority-rule of the Congos themselves. EDIT: This is kinda weird, but there's almost a Rhodesia/South Africa parallel where certain people wistfully say "yeah, too bad about Liberia, used to be a really nice country, you know, before..." It wasn't a rich country from 1820-1980, but it was relatively peaceful once they got done busting heads, and much like Rhodesia, if you were in the ruling minority it was a great place to live, and yet further like Rhodeisa the ex-ruling minority would be happy to tell you how much better things were for those ungrateful majorities in the "old days".

Doe murdered most of his predecessor's cabinet on a beach via firing squad; ; one of the few ministers to escape ended up becoming Liberia's president from 06 to this year.
