    Did you just quote the entire book (600 pages or so) as an example? That’s pretty funny and you may as well just as GP to google it. I’m currently halfway through the book and don’t remember any particularly egregious (any more than I expect all 19th century European aristocrats were regularly racist) and am interested in what passages are most of interest to understand the argument.

      Did you chime in to tell us you’ve yet to finish it? That’s pretty funny too

    That honestly sounds more enlightened by 1830s standards then almost anyone today by 2020s standards.
