If that doesn't destroy the Critical Race theory myth of group identity I don't know what does. Not only did blacks in America own blacks, but Africans were the ones who mainly enslaved people from other tribes and sold them to the Europeans for "export"

The Native Americans themselves owned thousands of black slaves.



This "white privilige" Marxist nonsense does not hold water. All humans are capable of evil, it's not a white thing. We need to work as one country united against evil. This Critical Race Theory is pure evil
Blacks proving to be as money hungry as whites. Of course blacks and everyone else owned slaves. Whites have no other use for blacks.

Whites and blacks are all guilty. Money and culture are guilty.

Well, assuming this is actually true, then I guess slavery is OK. Let's bring it back. I say we go to Trump country and kidnap people wearing MAGA hats and put them to work! Who's with me. Remember, slavery is not bad according to the OP. Blacks and Indians did it too. Go round up the MAGAts. Yee-haw.

However I'm sure you're familiar with the old adage about wrestling a pig in the mud. You'll never win and you realize the pig enjoys it. Thus it is with you I believe.

Steeped as you are in your righteous "understanding" and sympathy for the plight of the oppressed. So be it. What does that make you ? A BIG damn hero. Ain't you just.

Well hell, you're not alone. Bunch of big damn heroes just like you out there. And theres a fair amount of fed up to go around right now.
Are you now saying Black Lives Matter?

I'm not a hero, but did serve in the Marine Corps in Vietnam. Once I discovered the discounts I get offered by a lot of stores by wearing my Vietnam hat, I started wearing it more. I'm not "proud" of my time over there--and I volunteered to go. My family is a military family, too. I got to see Marines treating Vietnamese as "slant-eyed, slope-headed, gooks" as many of my racist foxhole buddies liked to call them.

So I'm used to the mud, and know that being "nice" is for suckers. If they punch, punch back harder. Isn't that what your president likes to do? You aren't fond of people emulating his tactics, but don't want to condemn the national poster child of Make America Great Again of that behavior?

I'm crippled now or I would be in the streets with those "horrible" blacks.

But I shouldn't have said you have the intellect of a turnip.

Almost none of this is about Black people, this is far left ideology using Black people to push for the destruction of capitalism and the rise of their communist 'utopia'
