    I have read many archeological articles that prove the accuracy of the biblical accounts of history.

    And may I say that your people know a hell of a lot more about it. And genocide. And imperialism. I could go on. Oh wait, let me not forget the smiley face, cause that always makes cheap shots better, as you've demonstrated on multiple occasions. 🙂

    Come on bud you had to enjoy that cheap shot though right? The pyramids werent built with union labor.

    Anyhow my people would probably be the Irish or the Prussians.

    And at least one of my ancestors was an abolitionist.

    You should listen to Malcolm Gladwell's podcast, Revisionist History, particularly the the episode "The Lady Vanishes" because they talk about moral licensing and that's what you are doing here. But I like how you get all specific about who 'your people' are but have no problem generalizing about someone else.

    You should really try to think a bit more critically about the euro/amero-centric history you were taught in school. Had I known you were talking about the Pyramids, I would've pointed out how wrong you are. Cleve did it for me, though. Thanks Cleve.

    Moral licensing? Come on dude I was giving you a little bit of shit since you were belly aching about slavery and I know the Egyptians have been famous for it.

    And personally as far as my Irish and Prussian ancestors, probably both of which were Vikings, I don't much care about world dominance and colonialism or any of that stuff either.

    I assume every group of human beings can go back in time and find somewhere that they were treated poorly. Tough shit. So unless Queen Elizabeth or Frederick the Greats great great grandchildren want to pay me some reparations, well you get the idea.

    The former HUD secretary under Obama also made almost the same analogy...the point being under one administration (Trump) the liberal media makes a big deal out of it and under another administration (Obama) nobody seems to care about the analogy.

    Well we all kinda knew how it was going to shake out after Trump got elected. It runs in cycles. Remember, Bush was supposedly Hitler but now that he said a few things that weren't endorsements of Trump, the media loves him.
