They're so racist they claim ownership over something that won't be invented until decades after emancipation?I mean, it’s a reality. Shit is like bugs hiding under rocks, whenever you think “oh people can’t be that racist” they really are.
I assumed that the author jumbled up the date and it was, like, pre-civil rights instead. I could see a really racist guy saying that in like the 1950sThey're so racist they claim ownership over something that won't be invented until decades after emancipation?
I assumed that he just misremembered that specific detail. Which, y'know, is still pretty silly, considering he bothered researching what a Model T looks like but not the timeline here. But mixing up pre-civil rights and pre-emancipation be much worse. That would completely undercut what's being conveyed. The mangaka is saying that slavery was the law, which is true if the story is in the 1850's but not the 1950's.I assumed that the author jumbled up the date and it was, like, pre-civil rights instead.

Is the point understanding specific cultures and histories, or just getting a vague feel, give or take a century, and spout platitudes?
