I am white and I owe you absolutely nothing because of my race. I am not ashamed of my race and I don't think white people are any better or lesser than anybody else.
Fuck reparations and fuck the bigotry of low expectations.

a-fucking-men
Also people be like "that joke was racist I'm being oppressed by humor" and I'm like cool well my grandad literally got his fortune stolen because of his race and I'm not here crying about it. I love pulling that minority card when people pull a minority card on me.
It's my thoughts as well. Sorry, you want reparations, go dig up the graves of slave owners, or better yet, go after the families that sold slaves in Africa. You're not entitled to shit just because of the color of one's skin.
Yeah exactly. And slavery is alive and well today, in the form of sex trafficking.
nothing... I don't perceive people in the context of "race"...

You as an individual have different responsibilities then our collective government. So why pretend white people alone today shoulder usa government today?
So there is this thing called a war bond. If you find one from the revolutionary war you will get paid back today its fair worth. find one from the Confederate government it's weight as toilet paper.
In the same way if anything stolen from 1776 USA government was founded today you would be an accomplice of stolen goods.
So any promise USA and the constitution we hold so dear to have any meaningful power, defense, global recognition, just meaning we have to hold our promise and our feet to the fire at times.
For any promises made by the USA government unless stated otherwise by other just as meaningful promise have to follow through.
Unless we the the people of the people of USA THE greatest country to ever exist just expect us the population to just eat shit and die. We will expect better demand better. Not from you personally get over yourself. you as an individual aren't the government. We say eat the rich. not white people, they just so happen to be white. Stop pretending to be a victim.
Black people and any other minority happen to pay taxes just like white people. Not rich people if only we could do something about that?
I'm also more alaskan native. So i do got free healthcare. Dividend check of over 1000 dollars for share holding of doyon ontop of alaska oil pfd another 1000 bucks a year.
To say it's impossible is a buch of horse shit. Just spit in there face and say you'll kill yourself before you call them your neighbor and fellow friend.
The main problem with "reparations" is that it can only be paid to the individuals that were directly affected by slavery. It can't be paid to people several generations later. A little common sense and critical thinking skills are helpful when arguing for unaffected people to get free shit. Don't believe me? Look up the law of reparations.
Im ALL for FUCK REPARATIONS but you DO owe something!! You owe your empathy, compassion and understanding for the societal and institutional barriers they struggle with EVERY DAY!!

Fun fact: Abraham Lincoln tried to pay reperations but the democrats stopped it after he was assassinated.
Fun right?
How dare you not hate yourself for the way you were born. You're a disgusting racist.
Amen! Hallelujah!
Reparations is a ploy to manipulate the weak minded for votes.
Haha, and here's where you get "cancelled" from the craycrays. Agree with you completely.
Yes, maybe replace race with skin colour to sound less racist.
No problem at all.
If they're going to continue to demand reparations for slavery, the descendants of the Barbary Slavers are in trouble...
Whoppi deserves something from the Goldberg plantation.
Who said you had to worry about reparations?
And I only set low expectations of you based on posts like these.
I say that if a bank person can prove in a court of law that my ancestors enslaved their ancestors, then I will pay reparations, but only to them.
Pretty much my thoughts as well
No, I agree with you
Sounds like a coming out.
What is the end goal of this?
And what does this provide you?
I would only get self inflicted anger, which is a waste of time.
Nope
Bingo.
