Racist and uncle tom conservatives canceling their subscription to Disney+ over one episode of #TheProudFamily rather than just not watch that show out of the many others on the app is pretty much peak conservativism at this point.

The only thing I’ll say I disagree with about the Juneteenth episode of #TheProudFamily ,which has conservatives so angry (and it’s really not something worth getting that upset about given the context of the rest of the episode), is that it is historically incorrect to say Lincoln did not end slavery.

Criticize Lincoln for his short-comings and missteps as an abolitionist, sure. Frederick Douglass did that too. But Lincoln and the Union Army absolutely did end slavery.

I mean, the man was assassinated over this — about three months after the 13th Amendment was passed in fact. Confederates were livid over returning to The Union after the passage of the 13th, which passed only because of Lincoln. Let’s not rewrite history to take that away from the guy.
