      2. There are numerous valid, specific, factual critiques of the package of essays launching the 1619 Project, and one has to labor to avoid them. My own thread just on Bouie's essay & its failure to accurately portray recent political history:https://twitter.com/baseballcrank/status/1163842860132777984 …

      1. You could spend all day on the slanted & misleading history in this @jbouie column why Mitch McConnell is...the new John C. Calhoun? To start with, search the column for mention of Harry Reid, Robert Byrd, or Lyndon Johnson. You won't find them. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/08/14/magazine/republicans-racism-african-americans.html …

      3. The most notorious example of how the 1619 Project got it grievously wrong is the ahistorical treatment of the American Revolution; I touched just the surface of that here https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1163495003659952128.html … & herehttps://twitter.com/baseballcrank/status/1163548660480786434 …

      "Most southerners" is further than I would go, but there is no question that the South had a lot more Tories/Loyalists than the non-slaveholding areas of the North did. The really active Loyalist militias, like Tarleton's, were in the South. https://twitter.com/McRibz/status/1163542654287663104 …

      4. A serious effort to grapple with the problems of fact & perspective in the 1619 Project would respond to the specific critiques, e.g, https://www.nationalreview.com/2019/08/1619-project-new-york-times-king-cotton-thesis/ …https://www.lawliberty.org/2019/10/02/slavery-gave-us-double-entry-bookkeeping/ …

      5. Or consider the @DamonLinker critique of how the Kruse essay on traffic was framed vs what it actually showedhttps://theweek.com/articles/859776/new-york-times-surrenders-left-race …

      6. Now, I get that part of the goal here is to undermine the authority of respected scholars like James McPherson & James Oakes, but cavalierly dismissing them on the grounds of "what do white guys know about debates over slavery" is unhelpfulhttps://twitter.com/baseballcrank/status/1197648775977848833 …

      Dan McLaughlin added,

      McPherson is, to put it mildly, a well-informed source; Battle Cry of Freedom is a masterpiece. The substantive & specific criticisms in this thread are, however, only a small subset of those that have been presented from a variety of quarters. https://twitter.com/wesyang/status/1197542213611339779 …

      7. At the end of the day, while individual scholars & pundits may earn more or less credibility from their body of work, historical debate is not advanced by ad hominems & closing your ears to voices that critique your narrative.

      8. One thing I promise you, the reader, I will never do is delete big chunks of my past Tweets & then daring y'all to find the stuff I deleted & calling you liars when you can't.

      9. I mean, you deleted something you wrote on this very subject this very evening, but sure, some day when it's not a holiday weekend with my kids home, I will do a deeper dive. Meanwhile, it'd be nice if you promised to delete no more stuff.https://twitter.com/jbouie/status/1200947667578294272 …

      I lied in claiming that you deleted a tweet in that conversation - the screenshot of which I provided - by claiming that you deleted a tweet in that conversation, which you admit having done?

      the reason i call you folks liars is because you lie. i deleted a tweet where i cursed at someone. the substance of the tweet was sarcastically replying to a claim that i had no expertise. the dude even posted it. https://twitter.com/baseballcrank/status/1200948899529338882?s=21 … https://twitter.com/baseballcrank/status/1200948899529338882 …

      I dunno what’s happening but it looks like the guy with an angry baseball avatar is being an angry baseball about how slavery was better for black people than black people claim
