I've seen plenty of people downplay slavery. Mostly it's the "that was so long ago" or "people are still bitching about that?" stuff like this. People that aren't skin heads.
|
So basically what I said about not dredging up the past... I don't feel that people should complain about slavery as if they had to endure it (or any other historical hardship). The whole "my ancestors had to go through blah blah" does nothing to aid progressive discussion. What matters is the current condition, critically thinking about ways to fix it, and using the past as a guide to make better decisions going forward. Slinging shit over history is fucking stupid.

"You know, there were white indentured servants back then too." Indentured servants may have lived hardscrabble lives, but they weren't even remotely comparable to slaves. They weren't systematically broken and tortured like slaves were. They couldn't just be murdered with no consequence for their killer. They also chose indentured servitude and were free once they met the terms of their contract. "It was so long ago, people just need to get over it." There were people born into slavery still alive in this country until at least the 1970s. We really aren't as far removed from that era as people like to think. "They were better off here than they would have been in Africa." Hopefully I don't need to even elaborate on all the problems with this one. "Their own people sold them into slavery." One of the times I heard this crap was right here on MB. People love to drop this one like its some revelatory piece of info that nobody's ever heard before, which somehow absolves American history for the crime of the slave trade. It doesn't. And of course it's also not true so that's another issue with it. "They got free room and board, life wasn't so bad." Ignoring, of course, the fact that they were property who could be abused and disposed of just like any other piece of property. Here's a specific example of a celebrity engaging in this one. |
My mom is from that generation, and Ive never heard her say anything like your examples.. It's more like: "mooching off the system" and "send them back over the border" or in the case of this seasons American Idol, "i wish they'd vote this faggot off already" (I think there was a trans contestant?).. but thanks for the examples, I see what youre saying.

People actually say this ****? :yikes:

You should join these threads more often. Even if I don't always agree with you, you're reasonable and intelligible.

Not true for people tanning on the Jersey shore. Not true for the orange president. |
Im sitting in the dentist office right now and when some white dude sat next to a young black guy the black guy moved his backpack to the opposite side. That dude is woke. Hows it feel whitey?
Update: some thicc and i mean THICCCC white girl just came out the dentist room and they left together. He was skinny af of course. The stereotypes are real today. |
They are taking our fat women!!! Outrage!
Oh, wait. I'm actually fine with that. |

Black dudes who will not **** black women are fools but I will **** their sweet mahogany - ebony queens for them. They leave it I retrieve it Word!!! PS - Fat bitches, too - white or black- I got you. |
Weird though, how often white guys don't appreciate the beauty of black women.
Black women, even ridiculously beautiful ones, always have terrible ratings on German dating sites. ****ing racists. And when we were in Barcelona all of my guys were constantly turning their heads to look at some blonde bitch passing by but zero reaction to the numerous black goddesses there. |
Fat men too. OH got you.

The darker the skin the better.
Mixed race rules as well but you guys are still racist. |
Quote:
I love redheads but when you mix the races it seems to take the best parts from both to make for boner fuel. Probably why Latinas and Brazillian chicks are so hot. There's so much in there that your dick doesn't know even know what to bust on first. |
