For Washington I’m talking about [https://www.mountvernon.org/library/digitalhistory/digital-encyclopedia/article/ona-judge](http://www.ona.com/ Judge) who Washington was particularly insistent on reclaiming up until he died. He may have said he abhorred slavery, but he didn’t seem to particularly practice or actually believe that.
This reminds me of the time I went on vacation with my brother (solid coke only guy; ftr I don’t drink soda, I drink tea, that’s a whole other meltdown in similarity lol) and we wound up in a “1950’s” cosplaying shopping square. Coke memorabilia EVERYWHERE. My brother was dying cause all the stores and restaurants we’d been to were Pepsi only. He excitedly goes into the convenience store with a display window full of coca cola bottles, a coca cola fridge and a COCA COLA SOLD HERE sign.
Pepsi only lol. Next time we went on vacation I bought him a 24 pack ahead of time and made space for it in my suitcase.
