Hooray for the Indian....it's believed in certain circles the indians were actually from Connecticut so it's thought to have been a prelude to interstate terrorist activités and statues of American Indian are being removed and disfigured today....in protest of slavery and harsh treatment to the Irish immigrants who soon would be scorned for drinking and peeing in Boston public garden.... southern states decided to declare reform and rebellious slaves drank tea with sugar from southern plantations...lynch mobs running riots
One thing that never gets mentioned when historians discuss the Boston Tea Party, is that halfway through the dumping of the tea, the colonists stopped for a 20 minute coffee break. This was part of their union contract, and was meant as a thumb in the eye to the British tea aristocracy.
Did they discuss which pronouns to use, and how dressing up as Indians was "cultural expropriation", and therefore made EO complaints against themselves to their respective HR departments?
This is not entirely correct, the colonies were smuggling tea from the Dutch because it was originally cheaper due to English taxes, so parliament gave a tax break to the East India Company because they were making barely any revenue at all selling tea to the colonies. They were trying to liberalize and remove taxes, which would have made the British tea CHEAPER than the smuggled tea, and the smuggler gangs, with their own vested interests, would absolutely not have it, so they politicized and manipulated the issue in a way convenient for them. Isn’t it remarkable how history keeps repeating itself so many years later?
