It wasn't the windmills that destroyed the common areas, it wasn't the sails that enslaved people the world over, it wasn't the cotton gin that drug the freemen back to their captors. It was and still is the powerful, those willing to use violence on their behalf and those unwilling to stand against it that do these things.
