Not surprisingly, you completely missed the point of why I made that comment. Considering you have IQ of a common flea, I'm going to try and lay it out for you like I would to my 4-year old niece.
The point is, you try and pretend that Black Americans are still oppressed; they absolutely aren't, at least in most parts of the country. Deep south, sure, there are still some nuts down there, but the majority of the country doesn't give a flying mouse turd what color people are anymore as long as they are decent humans and are contributing to society. DEI programs actually give them an advantage in many areas of the country.
You implied I had an easier life than most Black people just because of the color of my skin, which is pure dogshit. There are plenty of white people who start out with nothing and work their way up, and that opportunity is there for any Black American as well. They are not held back by anyone these days except their own culture who many times demonizes them for wanting to improve themselves. They are also severely hindered by their own race constantly killing each other, but you don't bother mentioning that, either.
So again they can enjoy their day, as they should, but stop pretending things are still so miserable for them. They aren't, no matter how much bleeding heart lunatics like you need to pretend they are to make yourself feel like you're a good dude or something by going to bat for them. It's so painfully transparent and stupid, you just make yourself look like a total cuck. [Reply]

You don't find it at all a little hypocritical that people still scream and yell about slavery from 200 years ago that nobody in this country currently was involved in but ignore real slavery currently happening? 25% of it estimated to be children.
That would leave one to believe that slavery isn't that big of deal as long as white Americans aren't the ones doing it. So the issue isn't actually the slavery I guess. [Reply]

He'll say that's because it's not happening in America, like we don't have people protesting all over the country every day over what the fuck is happening in Gaza. [Reply]
You have to remember buggers country surrendered their land to Islam. Every day is probably a race war for him. He won’t talk about that race war and those people so American strife will have to do [Reply]

Good thing the children will want reparations, children magazines, children entertainment channels, children month, children everything in 200 years. [Reply]

Well it is happening in America, right now.

This situation has raised concerns about the safety and well-being of these children, as well as issues regarding human trafficking and exploitation (Center for Public Integrity).

One day he'll figure out the invading horde is going to throw him off the roof for being gay, not black. Will he kneel to his fellow saltines and ask for defense, or go splat with pride? [Reply]

I actually assumed he was talking about slavery all over the world, including America. They could never know the true numbers, but I’ve read that there are currently more slaves in America today than at any point in the past. Not sure if it’s true and I’m not sure the definition of slave they’re using but I’d imagine they’re including sex slaves, prostitutes, indentured servant-type foreigners, etc.

Not really. The slavery that persists today isn’t enforced by our government. Literally everyone except the assholes who profit off of it agree it is highly unethical. We’re doing everything in our power to stop it.
I just don’t know what more you want to hear about the situation..? [Reply]

And they can choose which sex or race they can be. [Reply]

Columbus actually did something with his expedition.

People living right now have experienced being a second class citizen in the very nation whose military uniform they wore. I, for one, can understand why this day would be a cause for national celebration as the freeing of the last slaves is a pretty massive historical landmark. Just like the Isrealites being freed from Egypt was a major landmark event in the bible.
Is it *YOUR* fault these people went through that? No.
Is it the fault of the government that still exists today? Yes.
Is it the fault of "your" (the general your as it refers to the average white person whose family has been in the US for a considerable amount of time) ancestors for the condition we find ourselves in today? Yes.
Relations between the races today is simply generational trauma inflicted on us by the people before it. They got to use people as slaves and treat them as sub-human when they couldn't be kept as slaves anymore. Made a bunch of money off of it and peaced the **** out straight to hell without having to deal with any of the consequences.

I don't believe anyone here is gonna force you (the general you) to celebrate this holiday but I would hope that in the context of history and the whole "love your neighbor as yourself" would lead some to be at least a little introspection regarding the position the descendants of the people we as a nation, unwillingly, brought over then shit on for 200 years.
Today being a holiday takes absolutely nothing away from anyone.
My ancestors lived in the North from day one. We had nothing to do about it. We fought in the Civil War.
Don't lump my family and ancestors into your white guilt. [Reply]
