@ijbailey @CathyYoung63 Like I said, I personally see it as maximally evil, as with the Holocaust. I'm not sure what Americans would say if surveyed. They were treated as comparably evil in my 1980s Catholic schooling but I haven't ever discussed this question with anyone — PolitiTweet.org

@ijbailey @CathyYoung63 I do think they are comparably evil; and I'm not sure we do treat their legacies differently. On a scale of Evil Level 0 to Evil Level 100 the Holocaust and chattel slavery are both 100. It doesn't follow that Hitler and Jefferson are both 100. — PolitiTweet.org

@ijbailey @CathyYoung63 The analogy by which Washington plays the same role in chattel slavery as did Hitler in the Holocaust doesn't hold, which is why one could think the events are equivalent in evil while those particular men are not — PolitiTweet.org
