It seems time to plant a million liberty trees.

And give them their natural manure.

Thanks for posting.

Good video; very informative.

The narrator was interesting despite his creepiness.

We raised holy hell over lost profits and created Merica. Then 230 or so years later we roll over without a fight in exchange for a couple $600.00 checks.

Tons of truth there, we have rolled on everything from sales tax to property tax.  Oddly enough, in the show Sleepy Hollow (1st season was good) Ichabod Crane - a time-displaced Revolutionary War hero - hit the nail on the head:

That's a great clip, saving that.

I've discussed some of this at length in some of my youtube videos, though I can't remember which one I go through the Stamp Act, and the whole list of stuff that pissed us off. Also, if you haven't looked at them, take a look at the rest of the Declaration of Independence that contains the 27 grievances, most of which were economic related, and compare to 2020. BTW, we also complained in there that Britain wouldn't let us outlaw or restrict slavery. A little fact hidden by the leftists. Here's one I did on Constitution Day this year. This was a live video, so there's really no production value, lol:

I'm also an amateur history blogger in my spare time. Sort of on the same topic, another similar bit of American history which is underrated, is Bacon's Rebellion. Here's a blog post I did on it:

I can't remember when it was... but around the 2nd season they decided that Mills went to the FBI academy and became an agent and was assigned under the supervision of her classmate that was so good he was promoted to supervisor and both sent to Sleep Hollow Resident Agency... after that it just went off the rails....  we quit watching it.

Great info!

Its amazing that the whole racial segregation "divide and conquor" scheme goes back to the British Virginia Slave Codes of 1705

The British not only disarmed blacks, regardless of free status, but
It also served to socially segregate white colonists from black slaves making them disparate groups hindering their ability to unite. A unity of the commoners was a perceived fear of the Virginia aristocracy which had to be addressed, and who wished to prevent a repeat of events such as Bacon's Rebellion, occurring 29 years prior.
