The "civil" and "tolerant" community of Fox Nation isn't just upset about abolitionist Harriet Tubman replacing Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill, it reacted with a vile outpouring of racism that gives you quite a picture of the kinds of people who are Fox fans.
Accompanying the Fox Nation article on Tubman is a brief, embedded video report on the news. But the display image for the video, featuring an oversized Tubman in a sort of Aunt Jemima do-rag, was not in the video, at least not that I could find.
But if a picture is worth a thousand words, it certainly may have inspired the oversized racist reaction from the readers of what Fox boasts is a "civil" and "tolerant" community.

As a 100% Native American I find the joking around to be typical. Nobody has done much for my people except to kill them, marginalize them, and throw fake honors to them. Speaking as one and for one, we have never been impressed. None of you were ever wanted here.

I think it’s great they’re putting a Christian, gun-toting Republican woman on the $20 bill. Why should we have the founder of the democratic party on the 20?
Get rid of him. Personally, I can’t wait for the Tubman money.

Ya know, the more I think about it, the more I think that Harriet Tubman is a rotten choice to be the facade of capitalism. I wonder what the ghost of someone who championed an ethereal thing like freedom would think about being the representative of the brick and mortar almighty dollar.

Faux Nation may have a point. What could symbolize money and the acquisition of more money than an old rascist slave owner with genocidal tendencies? Or an altruistic black women who risked her freedom so others could have freedom?
Who really represents money?

@ Carole S.: Grets is right — this decision is dividing the country . . . between
- the sane and the stupid
- the progressive and the bigot
- the knowledgeable and unknowing of history

GVS went on a rant yesterday saying that this decision (Tubman on the $20) by the Obama administration is “dividing the country.”
Here is the write up from Mediaite:

A lot of the comments suggest GVS is the one who is being dumb!

Ignorant white trash being nothing more than ignorant white trash with a computer, hardly deserving of anything America has let to offer.

BLACKS VOTE COLOR OVER COUNTRY
Its true. Just ask
- President Jessie Jackson
- President Shirley Chisholm
- President Ben Carson
- Senator Alan Keyes
- Governor Lynn Swann
You have to love the irony of Jackson being US currency in the first place, as he was opposed to both the creation of a central bank and even printed currency itself — but, the teawingnuts at The FoKKKsNotion.com aren’t interested in such subtleties, as their screaming above indicates . . .
