This is how cotton is picked - Upgoat - "where a goat can be a goat"

We did. My grandparents had 11 kids, and they all picked the cotton. What my mom hated most about it was the spiders that would run up her arms as she reached out to pluck the bolls.

Spiders were most abundant when cotton was blooming but played vital roll in keeping pests down. Some more scary than others. Here is the cute cuddly crab spider

They must be pretty shit at keeping pests down if they now make up 13% of your population.

It's an easy fix , just lack the will power, support of populace/Hive mind.
We know who controls the have mind, that too could be easily remedied , but circumstances are not quite favorable enough.

But hey, I'm a glass half full kinda guy

It wasn't anything like this, at all.

Dawn to dusk bent over dragging a huge sack.

It was nigger work.

It's cotton. A huge sack probably weighs 20 lbs. 50 if it rains. That being said, picking cotton was probably the best job those niggers could hope for outside of being the "house nigger". Carrying sacks of fruit and shoveling shit or working in a 1700's era factory probably wasn't that great though.

Around 50 to 70 lbs full.

It's the bent over all day that kills.

I'm pretty sure tobacco would be less suck, even with the heavier baskets.

Shoveling shit while unpleasant, would mean being in the shade of the barn at least part of the day.

There were also skilled jobs, blacksmith, carpentry, cooper, driver..

Also gardener.

If it were true that they were bent over all day then they would all have huge back muscles and that would be all over the history books to show how hard they worked.

These aren't strawberries. These plants are tall enough that you don't have to bend over.

Slaves were living the good life if that’s the worst they had to deal with for room and board in America, far far away from the hellhole they came from. I did actual manual labor for a decade, literally shoveled thousands of tons of stone, mulch, topsoil, dug hundreds of holes big enough to fit 400lb root balls in, built at least 100 retaining walls, and couldn’t afford my own home or anything of real value on those wages, so basically working just to pay some jew for a tiny apartment, and to be able to afford a car to get me to and from work everyday. Sounds like the average nigger had it way better than I did back when they were slaves.

We lost the entire continent, because Jews convinced a dozen retarded land owners they could save $0.01 per day in wages by taking that job from Whites that died by the millions just to get here. And giving it to the niggers they were bringing over here.

They have mechanical picking machines now. They leave a pretty good amount of cotton behind, and also pick up a lot of crap that has to be ginned out, but they're a lot cheaper than humans of whatever color.

It's fruit that currently needs manual picking, and that's being automated away too.

Niggers were cheaper. You just crack the whip to get up started.

Got news for you, if slaves were cheaper than automation we'd likely still be using them. It was a major driver for elimination of the business model.

[ - ] Trope 4 points 2 monthsFeb 12, 2025 21:55:13 ago (+4/-0)

Man, the cotton gin is probably the sole reason there are so many niggers alive today. Imagine owning a fleet of state of the art textile machines thanks to the Industrial Revolution while Karl Marx shit talks you from Europe while you rake in the sheckles.

It literally is. If not for the cotton gin, cotton slavery would have been unprofitable and Virginia, which was already considering outlawing it and phasing it out, would have done so in the early 1820s. Without the powerhouse of Virginia, it’s likely there would have been no civil war.

Blacks are so lazy that they complain about having to do a job that easy, and jews are so lazy they brainwashed whites into letting them use black slaves to do a job that easy.

Every single jew who's descended from slave owners should be forced to pick cotton every day for the rest of his life. Which hopefully won't be more than a few days.
