[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The dresses and parties were paid for by money earned via free human labor which happened because of white supremacy. 
It’s not about “pretty dresses.” You know that. You can find other pretty dresses not from that era. It’s about celebrating a historical moment that embraced slavery. [/quote]

I hope none of you have ever been to a TOGA party... [/quote]
I haven’t. But your whataboutism proves the bankruptcy of your argument. Roman slavery was nothing whatsoever like the cruel monster that was invented in the Americas, [b][i](Why, because some of the slaves were white?  That whole gladiator thing was super not-cruel though, you have a point there)[/i][/b] and, as it ended roughly 2000 years ago [b][i] (So what is the time limit for people caring about the history of human cruelty?)[/i][/b], not a lot of people are around who are still experiencing the fallout from it.

Not sure what exactly you mean by “fallout”, but you should educate yourself as to the influence of the Roman Empire on the Western World.
