      We also blew our chance to support Haiti back when they first revolted because we didn’t want our slaves to get any ideas.

      As always, American Ideals are based on a lie.

      Haiti was punished by the West for daring to fight against their oppressors, and we all, collectively, never stopped trying to crush them.

      Now they have the failed state which the West absolutely caused, and scum in this country blame them for the situation they were put in.

        I think it’s great you blame the US when it was a French colony and the only Caribbean country that had to buy their way out of slavery.
