SLAVERY was a central institution in American society during the late-18th century, and was accepted as normal and applauded as a positive thing by many white Americans. However, this broad acceptance of slavery (which was never agreed to by black Americans) began to be challenged in the Revolutionary Era. The challenge came from several sources, partly from Revolutionary ideals, partly from a new evangelical religious commitment that stressed the equality of all Christians, and partly from a decline in the profitability of TOBACCO in the most significant slave region of Virginia and adjoining states.

Why is my friend justin cracked at fortnite?

Cloud [144]

Answer:

Because he is taken.

Explanation:

My interpretation of this philosophical clip is that Justin, the boy’s friend is “taken” by the grips of the video game Fortnite. We are following Justin’s is in a downward spiral into addiction. Eventually, his previously mentioned friend exclaims he is “cracked” at Fortnite. Now, this can be given many meanings, however the one that stuck out most to me is that eventually, Justin hits rock bottom, and cracks. Now, at this point Justin’s friend, who seems to be narrating Justin’s descent into madness makes abhorrent moaning noises. To me, this represents what is happening in Justin’s mind. He can’t escape his crippling Fortnite addiction. He doesn’t even gain happiness from playing anymore, yet he can’t stop. The moaning noises aren’t indicative of sexual pleasure, but cries for help.

Which of the following aspects of American government is NOT based on the philosophies of John Locke?

nata0808 [166]

John Locke was not of the opinion that b) individuals must enter into a social contract with government.

John Locke came up with a Theory of Social Contract as well as other philosophies in relation to government. He believed that:

Government power needed to be separated into the legislative, judicial and executive branches for it to function well
Government power should be limited to certain roles
The government derived its powers from the willingness of the people to submit

He did not believe that people needed to get into a social contract with the government but rather that they should only do it consensually.

In conclusion, John Locke believed a social contract between government and people was necessary but that it needed to be done willingly.
