The Clintons took slaves from the prison system and dressed them up in butler outfits and forced them to clean their house under threat of being sent back to the prison to do outdoor slave work.

In case it's your first time hearing this, slavery never ended in the United States, they just changed the name of it to"prison work programs" and the slaves work for their owners or are punished harshly. There is no opting out of the mandatory labor at the mandatory labor camps that generate wealth for the owners of the mandatory labor camps. But it's called "incarceration" not "slavery", when the slave owners force the slaves to humiliate themselves and work themselves to death under threat of violence and denial of food and basic human rights.

And this for-profit prison industrial complex generates enormous amounts of wealth for shareholders in for-profit prison companies, and state-run prisons that sell their prisoners to private companies as a cheap labor force, which is why America has the largest prison population on the planet.

So yes, Hillary owned slaves. And humiliatingly dressed them up as antebellum slaves. And humiliated them with threats of sending them to work outside because it's cute and fun because that's what plantation owners did, too.

Does anyone else remember that hilarious news segment that started with a clip from one of those prepper shows that had one of these gormless idiots showing off his mini-bunker with canned food and a large collection of DVDs, bragging that he could easily bunker for six months and then smash cut to this same rear end in a top hat at one of the anti-COVID shutdown protests heaving-chest sobbing about how he hadn't been able to get a haircut in a month. Bonus points because what little hair this dipshit had was in a buzzcut so he could have gone six months without a haircut no problem assuming he didn't want to just run a clipper over his dome once a week.

I can't remember any of those doomsday prepper shows ever having any of those asshats doing anything like studying planting or stocking fertilizer and seed. It was just about going into a shelter for six months, often with family members they couldn't get along with for six minutes under relaxed circumstances never mind in an existential crisis, and then emerging with a best vague plans to live off the land if they thought about what they'd be coming out to at all.

Watching one of those bits with a bunker manufacturer showing off how the door could withstand being hit by a large truck, all I could think is that I wouldn't be trying to break in, I'd just park the truck blocking the door and then slashing the tires to render it totally immovable because these jerkoffs living their Fortress-America-in-miniature fantasies would be a much worse annoyance than any benefit anyone would get from an extra few weeks of canned food from their stash.

TBF, I guess papering over a sense of their own inadequacy by positing a future world where their assumed but by no means actually demonstrated superiority as TRU SERVIVORS would come to the fore by way of acting out their masturbatory homicidal power fantasies.

(It's possible I may be a tad salty having been around some of these assholes sounding off while trying not to roll my eyes so hard that my optic nerves twanged like guitar strings.)

There was a British program ages ago that pointed out that in a doomsday scenario you probably couldn't grow food even if you had control of land because the equipment to farm using non-mechanised methods doesn't exist, and modern crops basically need mechanisation so you gotta find heirloom seeds.

Prepper chat reminds of Opposite Worlds, a terrible reality show on the SyFy channel that pitted one group living in futuristic comfort and luxury against one living in primitive and depraved conditions



It should come as no surprise that the people living with clean water, comfortable beds, air conditioning, and easy access to cooked food beat the tar out of people squatting in mud trying to rediscover how to make fire
