Britain beat us to the abolition of slavery; the Isle of Man, New Zealand and Finland all decided to give women the vote well before the United States. Eventually, we got smart and borrowed these egalitarian innovations.

remember when America "got smart" and borrowed "not enslaving black people" from the British. totally not a big deal, just appropriating "racial and gender equality" from other cultures. certainly weren't any massive domestic civil rights movements, or even civil wars, that demanded those things

it's good, imo, that the daily show, which once went on a seemingly one-man crusade against fox news, is now directly using fox news clips without ridicule or self-awareness
