    If only he included a chapter on dichotomies of being -- the sovereign
    changes not (Protestants of 500 years ago excepted) so what are the lessons
    to be learned from the American slave trade of 1732?

    Nah! More likely just buying his own book on mass. This is not a novel tactic amongst typical far-right political circles.

    LOL!
    As if this kind of artificially inflated popularity stats could ever
    impress any rational sane human beings! The Mad Monk is as relevant to normal people's daily lives as the a study on the pleasing fragrance
    nature of fresh manure is!


    In 1732, the American slave trade was marked by significant developments, including the importation of enslaved Africans and the establishment of
    slave markets. The Dutch colony of New Amsterdam (later New York) began receiving enslaved Africans, and the first American ship carrying captives
    from the Caribbean to America was documented in 1638.

    By 1732, the slave trade had become a major economic activity, with
    enslaved individuals being imported at a rate of about 1,000 per year, particularly in Virginia and South Carolina. This period also saw the rise
    of slave markets, such as the one in Newport, Rhode Island, which became a
    hub for the trade.
    But don't you worry, idiots like our Petz will judiciously chew over
    every single stinking word contained in this book!
