One of my great greats and so forth was a Tory. He got out of town one jump ahead of the tar and feather corps and made a run for the border. My grandfather was Canadian.

Another third were revolutionaries and the rest hedged their bets.

"The bottom line is that although significant divisions existed in America during the Revolution, the Loyalists never coalesced into an opposition group with the same strength as the Patriot cause. John Adams pointed to one legacy from the Loyalist population when he told Thomas McKean, 'Divided we ever have been, and ever must be.' When you wonder if America is 'divided' today, it’s good to remember that we’ve been that way since the beginning."

I read about 30% of Americans are racist.

Is one third of humanity just assholes?

of Germans after the war insisted that they never supported Hitler. If they were all telling the truth, he would never have received all the votes that he got.

But that was only when asked by outsiders. Among themselves, I suspect that they lamented his demise.
