    Those aren't shipwrights, you moron. Keep lapping up the 1619 bullshit.

    Those slaves who survived the trip plied their skills predominantly in agriculture, 4/5ths of them in the Caribbean, South and Central America.

    Why aren't you bitching about the other 80%?
    No wonder he can’t back up his FS. 1619 project is a complete fraud.

    Like in Jamaica? On the Harris plantation?

    It’s okay to own slaves if you are black, Muslim or Chinese.

    The rest are bad.

    I see, you're doubling down on dumbfuck. Ship building in the Americas occurred mostly around the New England region. There was no slave labor used in the construction of any of these ships and most of the boats built were for fishing. Of the cargo and freighter ships built in America few if any were used for the transportation of slaves. The availability of easy to access and cheap raw materials helped the American shipbuilding industry to dominate the market. Slavery had nothing to do with it. Whatever you've paid for you education you should demand a refund.

    Did we ever get an example of someone who was killed by capitalism?

    Correction to this, a small percentage of the ships built in America were used for the slave trade. The overwhelming majority of all ships built in America were not used in the slave trade. The US Shipbuilding industry continued to expand and dominate the market long after the slave trade into the US had been abolished in 1808. The availability of cheap, easy to access raw materials was the initial driver in dominance of the American ship building industry, not the slave trade.

    Also American exceptionalism. Americans were building better faster ships and the crew quality was also exceptional. One reason the British dominated the French and Spanish navy was a much higher quality officer and seaman class. The English had trouble with the infantile US fleet. The Euros were paying off the Barbary pirates because they didn't think it was worth the potential loss of ships and men to deal with them. Not so much the Americans in the day. Now? We are about to become China's bitch again.

    Yep, American built ships were faster and cheaper than the European competition. I'm sure that had something to do with slavery and violence.

    Just shows you how proudly ignorant and gullible our so-called intellectual elites are. The leftards on this board might be able to light up a dim bulb if hooked up in parallel.

    Nobody ever mentions the Barbary Pirates and their awful contributions to suffering, death, enslavement and subjugation of everything in the Mediterranean, up and down the African Coast and all the way up to the British Isles.

    It's almost as if it debunks the idea that White Europeans invented and dominated slavery in the Middle Ages.

    I wonder why that is? Inconvenient Truth?

    There are still Somalian pirates active today. It’s not reported in the West because it goes against the Leftist narrative. Captain Phillips was the last time you’ll hear about it and the truth of that piracy is much worse than portrayed in the film.

    He's looking frantically on the internet to find a valid point. Wait a week.
