There’s zero chance that Jefferson misused “was” in place of “were”.
You don’t get to decide whether “Government” is thought of in the singular or the plural, dick face.
The grammar itself definitively shows how the writer thought of it in that moment.
…and we have at least TWO illiterates among us this AM so far.
Were is correct in that context, and Jefferson knew it. Grammar is part of our society; its degradation damages our society.
You’re correct that it isn’t my decision. It already exists as immutable fact, and has, since centuries before my birth. GFY, glowbot.
“The most effective way to destroy people is to deny and obliterate their own understanding of their history”
-Huxley
….and here we are…….
“… First disarm it is citizens”?
We already lost the grammar war 🙁
it’s a fake quote either way
The attribution may be fake, but it’s still a statement of fact and of historical precedent.
