@Simon_Rex_ I find it strange when individuals of no historical consequence cast negative judgment upon figures whose ideas have endured long enough to become part of the world's intellectual/political inheritance. Obscurity is a peculiar vantage point from which to make such pronouncements
"The revolutionary leaders who declared independence in 1776 envisioned a republic composed of citizens who could see themselves as members of a single polity, liberated from the hierarchical structures associated with European aristocracy. The racial category of 'Whiteness' therefore aligned with the leveling impulse embedded in revolutionary rhetoric. It allowed colonists of varied European backgrounds to imagine themselves as equals within a new democratic order while still maintaining a boundary that separated them from indigenous nations and enslaved Africans. In this sense, the consolidation of European identities into a single racial category mirrored the broader ideological transformation of the age. The flattening of older ethnic distinctions reflected the liberal revolutionary ethos that sought to redefine relations among individuals, communities, and political authority in the young American republic, forging a new civic identity that rested upon the shared designation of 'white citizens' within the emerging national state."
