To truly be appropriate to what they are expecting from slavery reparations, all dark-skinned people would have to be responsible for the rapes, robberies and murders done by anyone in their skintone range, regardless of their personal family history or even if they were in the country at the time.
Collective guilt is absurd.
You're also omitting the fact that slavery is still thriving and alive and well all over the world. Libya, China, where they use Prisoners detained on shaky grounds no Western country would consider acceptable (I don't like any religion and that includes Islam but the CCP persecution, rounding up and "re-education" of their indigenous Muslim population is an abomination), Saudi Arabia, the fast that the Asante tribe in modern-day Ghana, of whom the Kente cloth is a symbol, owned slaves too, and let's not forget the disgusting, oppressive, Government endorsed caste system in India.
I'll save the fucks I have to give for those who are currently, to this day, right now being persecuted and sold into slavery, ta very much. Slavery =/= the transatlantic slave trade. And the uncomfortable truth for these morons is, the slaves in the TA slave trade were bought from black slave traders.
The USA was wrong to enforce segregation by today's standards and slavery was disgusting. But the USA has more than paid by allowing certain gibs to be given to American-Africans for life, as opposed to the five years in a lifetime limit for non-blacks, the generous College bursaries scheme, and affirmative action. There is plenty of scope for American-African people to earn themselves a better life, and so, so many do. But the ones who do are shat on by their peers and treated like crap, because of the "crabs in a bukkit, gimbs me moar gibs, you's bougie/coon/oreo/Uncle Tom" mentality.
As much as I despise all of this, my sympathies mainly lie with decent, hard-working, upstanding American-Africans who work hard and do well for themselves. I cannot imagine how frustrating this must be for them.
Slavery is shit. Slavery in the USA and the Carribean was shit. And we should never allow it to darken our threshold ever again. But for the love of fucking God, it finished nigh-on two centuries back. It confuses heck out of me when I see Leftards saying on the one hand "Israel needs to get over the Holocaust" but on the other, allowing and encouraging historical wounds to fester. I mean at least the Holocaust was and still is, in living memory.
