(((Dennis Prager))) is Jewish. PragerU is wildly pro-Jew, pro-Israel.
I don't know if it still is, but for a while on Youtube it was flagged as adult content. That affects who can access it, how easily and whether it can be effectively monetized.

Thank you man. Finally somebody with their eyes open.
What the fuck, voat??? Nobody checks stuff. The video is right there, YOU CAN WATCH it - ON YOUTUBE.
And PragerU is a fucked up channel. It has some ok-ish stuff, but in the end it's the same propaganda, sugar coated for right wings.

No dissident is tolerated. We can kiss the lefts boot all we want, just like the "conservatives" have been doing for the last 200 years, but in the end they will not tolerate other views. I wonder when they will go back to their nature of removing people from the face of the earth instead of removing information and incarcerating people like today.

The problem is that you really cannot decouple slavery from the state vs federal issue. Without slavery it is highly unlikely there would have been a war even given the different economies and trade interests in the North and South. But it is also unlikely slavery would have caused a war if the states were more aligned on trade and economic issues. I say this as someone who generally argues the issue was more about states rights and trade policy, not slavery.
Slavery as a (secondary) economic issue. No one would make the following ridiculous claim: The South was against the (blood and toil) machine of the North that demanded regulation, tariffs, and regular industry inputs from supporting regions, and, in essence, the Confederacy stood in ideological opposition to a system that was using child and female labor in soul-sucking factories.

Here's an excellent break down someone else originaly posted on why it wasn't about slavery. https://www.globalresearch.ca/the-so-called-american-civil-war-was-not-over-slavery/5605505

General Lee apparently wanted to free the slaves so they could avoid the whole thing. Canada I believe paid the slave owners to release their slaves peacefully.
There is a case to be made for the actual conflict being over state's rights and the slaves being used as an excuse.
I'm not an expert though and only parroting what I heard here.

Based on a video stating there are two genders. Now I got to click a couple more times to find their content.
Also, beware British Goats, you may get imprisoned for visiting the website founded by an old, overweight, conservative Jew! Even if the videos offer reasonable arguments from a basic Conservative angle.

Yeah, Prager U is terrific. They explain in very plain, reasonable terms the ideology that most of us here pretend to uphold. I really <3 voat, but think we should concede that many of us are grandstanding, belligerant racists. Prager does a good job of outlining our platform in terms that a moderate person can understand. They're much better ambassadors than we are.
