If you want to know why American politics are so f-ed up a good overview is The American Slave Coast: A History of the Slave-Breeding Industry, by Ned and Constance Sublette.
Published in 2016, just as American white supremacy began its campaign to take control of the nation (again), the authors take a deep dive into factors such as monetary policy and how Andrew Jackson converted the nation to what amounted to a slave-based economy. America never got over slavery.

The truth about “Space Karen" PayPal was founded by Max Levchin- not Musk. Tesla was founded by Martin Eberhard and Mare Tarpenning- not Musk. SpaceX is successful because of engineer Tom Mueller- not Musk. Elon Musk has never invented anything. . He’s never designed anything. He’s never been an innovator for anything.

    @The_Icarian #UncleThomas and #Ginny just need a new #RV. Life and work on #SCrOTUS is hard and they need some time to kick back in their new shoes and relax.
