I agree on everything but

Why the fukk should a African nation give a fukk about reparations?

You can't ask for your money...scratch that....

You can't demand your money back from a bully unless you have a big gun or someone with guns backing you.

Preferably, Aframs can form our own nation but if nothing else, a smart African nation would use this cheat code.

:mjlol: at black people thinking a white politician gives a damn about you. Black people deserve reparations but will never get them from these people. They would go to war before they even think about reparations. These crackers won't even apologize.
They won't even take accountability for it. Or even acknowledge it at this point. It's pretty much been a cycle of downplaying the impact it had and still has and black folks constantly being told to pick themselves up by the bootstraps.

In fact they were and still are trying to change history in textbooks referring to slaves as anything other than slaves...that's how they play the game. How can you expect them to even play fair when they never have?

Discussions about African-American progress always end with, only so much is possible because of the way the United States came to be and currently is. How can we deem the struggle beautiful if there will always be a gap. If black folk will perpetually be on the lower-end of the stick?

you're problem is you think the struggle is beautiful :dahell:

the only way reparations would have worked is if they were implemented within a generation after slavery ended.
think about how difficult it would be to have done it a year after slavery ended...
now think about a generation later when the potential recipients population has at least doubled.

fast forward to today and consider how much land and how many mules (or the equivalent of a mule in today's world) would have to be set aside to honor this promise.

now think about the racial mixing that has taken place weather it was forced during slavery or after that period of time.
so many mixed race individuals that would lay claim to reparations...do you give more or less depending on how much African DNA they have?

do you want to give the government a sample of your DNA in order to determine your eligibility?

:ohlawd:

minorities are all playing a game that is fixed against them...whites who are not rich are also getting fukked but not as overtly.

that divide and conquer game is skrong.

Only an complete and utter idiot would take free education as an alternative. fukk no fukk no fukk no.

Free education would have a big, adverse impact in helping richer, white Americans. Now, that expense is gone. They can pass off more generational wealth to their kids.
you're problem is you think the struggle is beautiful :dahell:

I don't think it's beautiful. Some people do and I was criticizing them.
