"Patriotism is the virtue of the Vicious", according to Oscar Wilde

Maybe, just maybe, this specific mod is, like me, not an American and does not know this unmarked quote.
Maybe he knew and still did it.
I don't know, so I can't judge. Do you?

Yes, because I have the intellectual capacity to look at the quote and know it's not advocating violence.

That’s Jefferson? He was full of crap then evidently, that quote is heavy teen rebel energy. Was he one of the slave owners or was he just angling to genocide the existing tenants? Is he one of the still-popular ones? So many questions.

I see I already had you correctly tagged as “bootlicker”.
