Didn't the founding fathers own slaves?

Not all of them, but most of them did. Shoutout to Thomas Paine for not being morally bankrupt.

The term founding fathers is an unfortunate one. It was a varied group of people with different beliefs and levels of participation. American history always makes it sound like one group of besties who hung out all the time and agreed on everything. I don't think that's what you or dirt were doing but I hear it a lot

A lot of their writings are them constantly talking shit on the other guys.
