I think you guys give Dems way too much credits. This is yet another lame ass strategy to divide the country.
I doubt they REALLY want the AA community to receive their reparations. The worst case scenario, "Here is some money, (perhaps very little amount for a very small group of people) and stop complaining."
Doubt it too...just not opposed to it. It would have been done a long time ago if reparations were intended. Those in power wanted free labor and then the ability to underpay and abuse without repercussion. They ensured that they got it and caused havoc doing so.
I wonder if they will even let pro second amendment people in the modern democrat party?
Sometimes I wonder if they will let anyone with a brain in the modern Democratic party. The far left has pretty much taken control, the support Democrats used to have for this country, for working people, for American businesses, has disappeared in the last 2 decades. Or at least been overshadowed by the "free chit", hate on America drones.
I think everyone should do an ancestry search on ancestry.com and if you can prove your family didn't own slaves, you don't pay a dime. If your ancestors weren't slaves you don't get a dime.
Of course that would mean that people pay for "the sins of their father". Which the dems tell us we can't do in instances of DACA. So which is it???
If they think we should pay reparations, then ALL DACA and Dreamer peopke get deported. Father's sins, and all that...
But that's a topic for another thread. Back to reparations, should we go even further back in time, to ancient Egypt as mentionned in some memes like this one or this one for example?
Doesn’t change that fact that the white middle class was largely established by welfare. See the other article for reference.

While I find this statement to be totally incorrect (my grandparents never got a dime, let alone a free house), if it were true, why hasn't massive welfare $$$ given to blacks made them middle class?
Your own statement is a condemnation of the black community
LOLOL...my parents were poor in their home country so nope. We came from nothing and achieved the American Dream.
My parents were wealthy in their home country though, but they came to America with only clothes on their backs all thanks to American hegemony and involvement in the war.

Where is my reparations?
African-Americans were enslaved in the U.S. and endured Jim Crow after. It wasn’t just one generation but over hundreds of years. In fact, over almost all of American history. At least you can even point to a home country, language etc. All of that was destroyed for African-Americans.
Surely make your claim after African-Americans and Native Americans though.

Massive welfare was given to whites over decades while blacks were barely eligible. Whites received far more welfare than blacks ever have. The condemnation of the black community is in your own mind. Deny it all you want but the white middle class was largely established from welfare.
