If the majority of Americans were cool with enslaving black people again, would you have the same response?

It's insane to let a fascist control the country because their brainwashing campaign was successful. The entire purpose of the EC was to go against the will of the people in this exact scenario.

The Americans had a civil war about it. And now they are fighting to bring back slavery for all brown/black instead that only for imprisoned people. And black/brown/latinos are cool with it.
