American Thinker-
Antifa is the most public, in-your-face element of the communist Left’s decades-long effort to vilify America as a bastion of racism and “white supremacy.” Normal people know that this characterization of the United States is simply not true. We have been world leaders in promoting racial harmony and reconciliation and have bent over backwards to aid in the advancement of minorities. Today, for example, blacks, Hispanics, and women have the lowest unemployment rates in U.S. history. Furthermore, certain minority groups are eligible for racial preferences and set-asides unavailable to whites and even those minorities — for example, Asians — who excel.
The poorest people in America are better off than people in most other nations. A recent study found that when you include the myriad welfare programs available to Americans, the bottom 20 percent of income-earners in the U.S. are better off materially than everyone in most of the nations of Europe. Another study found that the bottom 10 percent in the U.S. do better than the top 10 percent in Russia and that our nation’s poor do better than virtually everyone in India and better than 85 percent of those living in China.
The Left media ignore all this. They would have you believe we are constantly on the cusp of reverting to the days of Jim Crow. Slavery in America ended with the Civil War, which cost more American lives than any other war in U.S. history. With the complete dismantling of postwar discriminatory practices by 1964, and continual efforts to boost the affluence of minorities, talk of slavery and reparations should be a thing of the distant past, but a race-hustling industry has kept it alive by misinforming successive generations of students and indoctrinating minorities to hate everything American, while (mostly white) leftists constantly agitate to sow and inflame racial division.

And lets set the record straight about slaves building the capital too. If they had it would be constructed of mud and sticks!
Facts?
FACTS!?!
You tryin to confuse the narrative with facts?
Wassa matta you?
izlamo delenda est …
Yes, and the lefty agitators should all be sent to Zimbabwe.
Hundreds of thousands of mostly white Christian men and boys fought and died in the American Civil War, the first time in the history of the world that a war was fought to end slavery. The first slave owner in America was a black man in New Orleans. Muslims started the African slave trade, and that was after many years of putting whites into slavery.
America has nothing to apologize for.
…here, let me pay reparations to every Black person I ever enslaved, or that my ANCESTORS ever enslaved.
(0$ changes hands)
…there, now that I’ve squared accounts, allow me to point out that:
1) No living White person in America ever OWNED a slave.
2) No living Black person in America ever WAS a slave.
3) White people died while killing large numbers of OTHER White people in America to END slavery 150+ years ago, so that bill was paid in BLOOD by people who were actually extant at the TIME.
…if you want MODERN slavery, there’s plenty of Black-on-Black and Muslim-on-EVERYONE slavery going on RIGHT NOW, ALL OVER AFRICA AND THE MIDEAST.
…go THERE if you want to fight ACTUAL slavery TODAY. Bueller? Anyone?
Yeah, that’s what I THOUGHT…
…in the mean time, HERE and NOW, slavery has been OVER for 150+ years, BY LAW, except maybe for some Obama-planted Shari’a “No Go” zones in Democrat controlled areas. We’ve paid inestimable treasure in the name of race, too, as well as sacrificed the opportunites of our White sons on the altar of Affirmative Action, and our White daughters too.
And not EVERY Black person in America has slave lineage.
…of those who DO, they may be the sons of sons of sons of slaves. When does that start to not matter? My German and British ancestors were enslaved by Romans, does modern Italy owe ME anything?
Get.
Over.
It.
…BUT, if you REALLY want reparations, no Republican EVER owned slaves. They were all owned by Democrats.
Go see Nancy Pelosi, I’m sure SHE’LL give you some of HERS, and “Obama’s” alleged ancestors owned slaves TOO, go drop by HIS place, I’m confident HE’LL be eager to make it right…
I’ve never met a slave in 60 yrs. I’ve been around. Unless you count American citizens and the IRS!
‘reparations’ are only talked about in the USA because we are the only nation that would pause to actually take time to think about it. and we are the only nation rich enough to consider it.
just another freebie program to absolve ‘white guilt’ among the ‘upper class’, & as a by-product, further impoverish & enslave (ironic, ain’t it) the white middle class.
Reparations only appeal to those ingrates that have the attitude they’re owed something because they listen to leftist distortions of the past.
It’s a big world out there, go seek a place more to your liking.
One more thing…
I believe that in the “unretouched” paintings all the slaves being examined were naked.
Just saying…
The first “legal” slave owner in the colonies was a black man named Anthony Johnson.

Hey leftards – stick that in your VAPE and smoke it!
But what then about Roots? They got that slavery stuff on film! Its right there! You can’t Deny.
I will not comply with paying reparations. I’m guiltless on the subject.
If somehow I am forced to pay, I think the Second ACW will commence.
How about a compromise? Any blacks who want reparations get them, however they must renounce US citizenship and they are deported to their ancestral homeland in Africa, never to return here.
Forty acres and a mule. In Africa.
Cassius Clay once famously said, “Thank God my grandpappy got on that boat!”
BTW – anytime I meet a black person who changed their original name to a Moslem name, I am floored by the level of their self-ignorance. Arabs invented slavery and it was Arab Moslems who introduced institutionalized slavery to sub-Saharan Africa. So by adopting a Moslem name, they are choosing a slave name for themselves. Idiots!
When you consider the life of a black person in the US vs the life of a black person in Africa, blacks should be getting down on their knees and su……i mean thanking their lucky stars for what us good white people did for them.
The Slave Market – by Jean Leon Gerome, 1866, a tremendously revealing historical painting, a moment in time, a horrible one…an unimaginable one.
THAT white slave will be darkened over time to hide the appearance of being even close to white.
Artwork has been fucked with since a long time and now we have digital imaging to ‘help’ in the future.
