    Senator Tom Cotton: “Slavery was a necessary evil”. Necessary for whom?

    • I read that at reuters, who notes this chap is a possible contender for 2024 US presidential elections. Perhaps he is thinking our current straits are also a “necessary evil” for the great times ahead!

    • I am thinking the term necessary evil needs to be purged. –as a cancel culture tribute. from wikipedia : The Oxford Dictionary of Word Origins asserts that “[t]he idea of a necessary evil goes back to Greek”, describing the first necessary evil as marriage, and further stating that, “The first example in English, from 1547, refers to a woman.”

      tom dixie cotton shall not be forgotten. really gross statement
