Social Justice Warriors - Now With Less Feminism Sperging

Lincoln never did that. Congress never passed such a law. It was a promise supposedly made by Sherman.

"FORTY ACRES AND A MULE," a phrase echoed throughout the South in the aftermath of the Civil War, asserting the right of newly freed African Americans to redistributed lands—particularly those plantations confiscated by U.S. troops during the war—as compensation for unpaid labor during slavery. Many historians trace the phrase to General William T. Sherman's Special Field Order Number 15, issued on 16 January 1865, which set aside a thirty-mile tract of land along the South Carolina and Georgia coasts for former slaves and promised the army's help securing loaned mules.

What if you're a black person and you disagree?

Oh wait, according to you, black people can't possibly have any opinions that don't align with your own.

Also, the fact you disagree with Abraham Lincoln on one thing doesn't mean you disagree with him on everything. I'm sure you'd find points of disagreement with him and you wouldn't have to look that hard.
But Abraham Lincoln didn't see blacks as equals and would rather have them all deported back to Africa, and would never want to see America run by a Negro.
also, wasn't Slavery outlawed as a war strategy?
I haven't really touched up on my Civil War

Slavery was "outlawed" as a propaganda victory. Its something that is lost in today's discourse, but the Emancipation Proclamation didn't actually free any slaves, because it freed all slaves in states that were "currently in rebellion", i.e. states that were still part of and controlled by the Confederacy, and thus would not have certainly freed any slaves. It didn't include any part of the Union, or even Confederate territory occupied by Union troops. Slavery was truly outlawed nationwide, and all slaves actually freed, AFTER the war, with the Thirteenth Amendment.

I agree we should give all former slaves reparations, just need them to prove that they were slaves and they can get a check in the mail.


How would you calculate the amount of money to be paid as reparations? Do you treat it as a minimum wage job and add up the hours? Does the payer get to deduct costs of living of the slaves from it?
 
While the Emancipation proclamation did not formally end slavery across the land it did mark its death knell.With a proclamation ending slavery in the places that were in outright rebellion it pretty much ended slavery in most places it was legal.The places outside of that proclamation would inevitably end slavery at that point sooner or later since they were far smaller in size.Continuing to have slaves in say Maryland which didn't secede although plenty of Maryland natives still joined the Confederacy would at that point no longer be viable over the longer term.
As for reparations i don't see the continuing obsession with it since the last former slave died sometime in the 1960's.Someone born circa 1860 into slavery and who lived a very long time dying at around 104-105 circa 1965.At this point even the children of former slaves are pretty much gone.Maybe a couple aged 109 or so are still alive.Assuming some former slave fathered a kid while aged 50 circa 1910.Who would be eligible for repations?How black do you need to be in order to demand them?If someone has one black greatgrandparent would that make them eligible?Not to mention the exact sum of money that absolutely no one can calculate.

“I will say then that I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races”
- Abraham Lincoln, 1858

I also remember something about Lincoln offering negroes the opportunity to just leave the country, which they declined

If I recall correctly, he was apparently mulling over a plan to ship them all to Liberia when he got shot, so it was never enacted.
 
How in the hell would you ever calculate reparations? Do you have to find out which slave(s) they are descended from, determine the prevailing wage for the work they were doing at the time, then split up the slave(s) earnings among all the descendants?

How do you determine who pays for this? Most people didn't own plantations or slaves. Do you track down the descendants of slaveowners and make them pay? What about the people who sold the initial slaves from africa? Do we have to figure out how much they were paid and split that among the slave descendants, or do we look at it instead in terms of damages (I'm assuming the damages for being sold into slavery far exceed what was paid for the slaves).

How about mixed descendants? They're both descended from the slaveowners and the slaves. Does that just even out? Or do we need to dig even deeper, and look at how they were treated individually?

To me, that's the only fair way to do it. And even then it's not really fair, nobody can control what their ancestors did. What if a plantation owner's kids blew the family fortune? How are their descendants supposed to pay their share of reparations when they didn't even benefit from slavery?

The other approach, I suppose, is easier. Just create a racial database(somehow), and have everyone register on it. Then all the "white" registered people get to pay some extra tax, and the "black" registered people get some extra tax refund. I don't know if you include some kind of dna testing here to prevent fraud, otherwise we're gonna have a sudden demographics shift from white to black.

Of course, that would piss me right off, since I'm white and my ancestors weren't even in the country during the time of slavery. And plenty of black people's ancestors weren't either.
 
I really don't understand how the fuck this would benefit anyone in the black community.

White people would hold more resentment against black people if this ever passed because they're essentially suffering for shit they don't have control over. Ironically, causing more of a cultural divide. As much as so many black people on Tumblr like to sperg about not punishing people for being black, they sure have no problem for punishing people for being white.

There are so many scenarios that could kill idea before it even starts. How would you determine if you are descendant of a slave owner? Some immigrants from the early 1900's did mix with the other white people already there. If you are a certain percentage of slave owner DNA do you have to pay? What if you are an immigrant? Do you have to pay for merely existing? Not to mention the awful implications that people who are the descendants of slave owners can't be good people.

Then for black people, many, (like I) would take great offense to those wanting to do shit like this. There are plenty of black people who've really worked to get out of the ghetto and make it on their own because they have the drive to succeed and not be a crackhead or gangbaby. It would be so insulting to receive a check that says essentially,

"we think you're too pathetic to work on your own so have some money for just existing."

What about black people who were slaves in different countries? Do they get reparations for living in the US? How would that being determined? All this shows is more of these people's racism more than anything.
 
Nobody alive today had fuck all to do with American slavery, this is like the far left co-opting the idea of original sin, only stupider since they only apply it to certain groups.
The hypocrisy of it all is that modern day slavery/human trafficking is much worse when borders aren't tight, and the far left, that apparently is so opposed to slavery they believe physical compensation is owed to it's descendants, actively encourage the type of environment that makes modern slavery easier than ever.
 
I've said it before, but SJW's are this generation's equivalent of the Religious Right.

Both are whiny miserable moral authoritarians who complain about anything that deviates from their agenda in the slightest.

As sad as this may sound, I'd take the Religious Right of the 1980's and 1990's over the SJW's of the 2010's because their lunacy was at least sort of funny and even in the most conservative parts of America, they didn't have near the amount of power that the SJW's do today, mainly because mainstream media and academia rightfully considered them to be crackpots and didn't bend over backwards for their demands like they do with the "woke" crowd.

Hell, Anita Sarkeesian might as well be the new Jack Thompson or the leftist equivalent of Jack T. Chick.

The only difference is that when Jack Chick attacked D&D back in the 80's, GenCon didn't make him their main Guest of Honor like they did with Sarkeesian.

And she's only the most visible proponent of SJW moral authoritarianism. The colleges and universities are even worse in their moral guardian tendencies and also more dangerous.

That's a really good point. If it won't completely stop all bad things entirely, we should just not even try.

I know when I look at crime statistics, I make sure to list the skin color and sex as I go.
Liquor store robbery: black male
Drive by shooting: black male
Illegally crossing the border: brown male
Illegally crossing the border: brown female
Illegally crossing the border: brown male
Illegally crossing the border: brown male

This is how you know I'm not racist, unlike everyone else. I very carefully categorize people by race so I can make sure I DON'T treat them differently, you see.
 
Oh sweet jesus its never going to fucking end...The ADL has decided its new priority is to whine about fucking gamergate, a flame war that is now 4 years old and 3 years dead, and demand that devs make "empathy increasing" games to combat all the nurd ISIS terrorists in vidya

Seriously. What the fuck happened in the post 2012 era that turned the whole media/activist/political circlejerk into such absolute autistic retards regarding basic internet troll schtick 101? They sure as shit were not so suicidally "NO SERIOUSLY GUIZ!! I KNOW WE ARE BEING ROUTED ON EVERY GODDAMN FRONT IN POLITICS AND OUR BUSINESS IS DRYING UP FAST BUT WE HAVE TO SCREECH ABOUT THE EVIL NURD BIGOT CONSPIRACIES THESE TROLLS ARE CLAIMING TO BE PART OF! THE MASSES MUST BE TOLD OR WE ARE DOOOOOOOOOMED!" obsessed back in the bush era or even the early obama era despite 4chan and such being in absolute ascendancy.

Like...its cant be a vote or support winning thing, and even its clickbait utility has dried up completely so it aint about cynical profit, and given how openly violent harassment is now being applauded by the dems and the left this certainly isnt a "we just dont want ppl to be mean" thing, so honestly this could well be a sign that a lot of these fucking people have well and truly gone mad over the past few years in the face of everything they believe in turning into absolute shit.

(Or it could be the usual bald bearded bespectacled male feminist ally dregs desperately trying to do the "LOOK AT ME! IM FIGHTING THE EBIL MISOGYNURDS! PLZ PAY ATTENTION TO ME WAMMEN!" mating dance, that is always a possibility)
 
How dark do you have to be to qualify for reparations? 'Cause there are not insignificant number of white people who are also descendants of slaves. THEN WHAT?!

Suppose they were descended from a foreman who whipped other slaves? Wouldn't they owe reparations themselves?
