If back in the day, a black person owned a black slave that was oppression.
If back in the day, a black person owned a white slave that was oppression.
If back in the day, a white person owned a white slave that was oppression.
If back in the day, a white person owned a black slave, that was racial oppression.
This sums up all that you have said.
You have to admit, It's entertaining to watch the crazed contortions this poster performs in order to justify their addlepated ideas.
When you tell me how the loves of whites have been destroyed by black racism get back to me.
The issue is that some people are racists and are looking to justify their racism by raising nonsensical issues like this.
How many whites know or care who the 5%ers are, much less able to chronicle how their attitudes towards whites has harmed them?
Ignorance is bliss I guess.
So only raise issues of racism when it suits your "level of definition" and not make it about the actual racism? The lessor of two evils is still evil.
We can debate at length about slavery. How about let us talk about its aftermath. De jure Jim Crow in the South, and de facto Jim Crow in the North. A political, social, and economic system which disenfranchised blacks, rendering their ability to improve their lot in life to be very difficult.
Are you going to tell me that both blacks and whites suffered equally under Jim Crow?
Here is the deal. While no living person was slave, or knew any one who was, just about every black person over 50 living in the USA during this period was impacted by Jim Crow. That's a whole lot of people who you probably pass by every day!
All because our immoral government over stepped it's authority, using force, to get what it wants.

Well, no, the federal government was busy building up the white middle class. Although it did contribute to segregation via redlining, we mostly find that it's state and local governments in the south, and private institutions like banks or stores throughout, that drove white supremacy in the Jim Crow era.

Oh, please, as if Blacks were the only race/ethnicity ever discriminated against in the U.S.

The turtle are actually meaningless to them.
As the concept of paying your own way for resources you use is apparently meaningless to most rightists, eh?
THe guy was listening to Sean Hannity so he's not the sharpest tool in the shed, but that was FUNNY.
Hilarious. I thought the guy was going to burst a blood vessel.
