Some more info about Tonja / Tonya Honsey:

Her record also includes charges for check forgery and theft. Her most serious drug crime was in Freeborn County: a 2002 conviction for second-degree controlled substance, after a clandestine meth lab bust near Maple Island.

Tonja Honsey, the first formerly incarcerated woman to be appointed to the state’s sentencing guidelines commission, was photographed at Fueled Collective in Minneapolis on Wednesday, May 1, 2019.

She spent parts of each of her three pregnancies in a jail cell, at one point falling seriously ill while more than four months pregnant with her youngest child. Later, after the boy's birth, Honsey said she spent another 12 months in custody as she awaited sentencing and could interact with her child only by phone. He was then only 18 months old.
When they reunited, Honsey said, he didn't recognize her until she serenaded him with her version of "You Are My Sunshine."

So they spent a whopping 200 thousand from those 35 million dollars. That's about 0.57%

And it seems they're going for 50 million!

I'm sure some of that 35 million went to the Biden campaign, which supposedly fights for the interests of black people, so they won't mind the slight deception.

Grand Rapids

The wheels of justice continue to grind against the rioters of May 30-31. At least eight people have been charged so far.
The defense attorney, Christopher Dennie, of one of them is seeking a change of venue, so that his client, Brian Jennings, 30, can have a fair trial.
"[The lawyer] cited damage to Kent County property, as well as the impact of the riots on the Grand Rapids community, during the alleged crimes as reasons for the potential venue change and disqualification of the county prosecutor’s office."

It's a claim of collective guilt made in the face of inequality of outcome. Since equality of outcome is a ridiculous thing to complain about, and since guilt can't be collective, you should be skeptical.

Such claims are intentionally vague so the listener/believer can fill in the meaning. It has no real meaning.

Sometimes people press them enough on these claims to force them to create studies like this, which "prove" that once you eliminate the obvious factors that influence 13/50 (like committing more crimes, hiring shit-tier defense, being low-class economically &c.) there's still a 10% increased sentencing time for blacks on average for the same crime in comparable conditions in federal courts. I'm not a stats major, so I don't know how legit this study's conclusions are, but lefties hold it up to prove that the system is biased and hope that you forget the margin is far smaller than the difference in outcome.

I found this because I posted that anonymous Berkeley letter from that one sane history professor, and some PhD cousin of mine is trying to convert me for some reason. Maybe she's worried I'll defect to the Trumpenreich when the Boogaloo comes or some shit.

When your group's average IQ is one standard deviation below the national average, causing your group to be more responsible for crime, that is going to create some amount of rational bias against your group.

So if any of these people get "reparations" through Twitter, they become ineligible for the national reparations program that they want the US Government to do, correct?

I mean you can't double dip. Fair is fair. I hear the Minnesota Freedom Fund has money to give.

I agree wholeheartedly, especially since slavery has already be compensated. That's what the whole "40 acres and a mule," was for. Now, a lot of people don't know this but a good number of ex-slaves went back to their previous masters for work. My family has journals from one of my ancestors who was a slave owner. And he wrote that once his slaves were free, they left his home. Only for them to come back a week or two later asking him for a job. He hired them of course, but my point is that slavery has already been compensated.

There's no need for people today to pay for something that has nothing to do with today's society.

40 acres and a mule wasn't limited to black people, and in practice most of them didn't actually get it. I hate to imply that Wikipedia is reliable, but I don't have a better source handy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forty_acres_and_a_mule

A better argument against reparations that go beyond slavery itself and look at economic position is decades of racial quotas in hiring, higher education, government contracting, etc, which benefit middle/upper class blacks while doing fuck all for the working class/welfare class, same as race based reparations. Ignoring class makes it more performative than materialistic. If we're gonna be commies let's do it properly.

It can mostly be explained by a focus on equality of outcome rather than equality of opportunity combined with selective blindness to inequalities of outcome against "non-marginalized" groups as well as against alternative explanations. Which groups are designated "marginalized" is an axiom. XKCD is cancer, but https://xkcd.com/882/ (p hacking jellybeans) also applies.

They're probably right if you accept that premise but it's a stupid premise.
