I don’t know. It just always seemed weird to me when people pull out the “Oh do you only consider black people to be 3/5ths of a person?” Because they are referencing something horrible about how we treated black people, but it also seems to fundamentally misunderstand what is problematic about it in the first place.

It’s a compromise about how much control slave owners.
