Dumb move.

Better to have it in and at least pretend to be disgusted than to leave it out, be found out, and look like you on some shyt.

Am I supposed to be shocked that a white man in the US has ancestors who owned slaves? Or am I supposed to be shocked that a Famous uber-liberal white guy like Affleck would try and scrub that unfortunate part of his family tree from the record?

 

[Dr. Sebi Jr.]

He's trying to hide the TRUTH.

Ben Affleck (A JEW????!!!) was behind the slave trade!
