Reparations "Imaginary country of New Colonia" vs Liberia
Posted on 8/2/17 at 8:57 am

Liberia is a shithole country founded by white guilt for former slaves. Exactly what the Reparations "New Colonia" country would be.
The TV show is rumored to portray New Colonia as better than the rest of what the US became without the former slaves.
Given that we have a historical actually tested example in Liberia of this experiment I have been wondering why this new show would even be necessary to imagine.
After giving it some thought I came to the only reasonable solution as to why Liberia was never successful.
Liberia's government was founded using a copy of our US Constitution.
Since the US Constitution was designed by racist whites for racist whites, no wonder the black race coundnt be successful after being given all the reigns of power!

I don't think he's bitching about the show, but presenting some information that some was not aware of for discussion.
Do you have anything to add, or just memes and gifs?

There was a site about the most dangerous places to take a vacation. The recommendation for Liberia "Make sure you have your last will filed before you leave for Monrovia."

Only if we can historically critique the show with facts without being called a racist.

My ancestors were Cajuns. They didn't bring nobody nowhere.

They should've just worked them over in Africa and sent the goods on ships. Leave them there when they decided to abolish slavery. We wouldn't have to put up with all this BS over something we had nothing to do with now

Seriously, slavery was not only horrible for the people who had to endure it, but the aftermath of it has been terrible for this country.

Do you deny Liberia is a shithole?
Do you deny that it has been a mismanaged, utterly corrupt shithole essentially since its founding?
Have you even read a history book?

Keep calling everything racist and deluded actual instances of racism

If its based off the historical leadership of blacks, it really should be an entertaining show. Rape, genocide, and slavery. The trifecta, really.
I see the slogan now: if you thought NOLA was bad now, imagine if the Gravy was actually in charge. Dark times indeed.
