Ouch! Bryan Adams, touring here, on the Chancellor: You don’t have to be an expert to see that F. Merz isn‘t liked as Chancellor. When it’s clear that you’re no longer wanted, you should know that that means it’s time to go. You take a bow, say thanks very much and leave the field to someone new.

There are so, so many verified diaries of white Union soldiers at the beginning of the war saying "I don't know about this, I condemn the deplorable violence" and then they get down there and see slavery with their own eyes and immediately go "John Brown was right we gotta kill these motherfuckers"
