it’s an actually interesting way to shed light on a dark time in the nation when people who may not know better question who is on the bill.
In what way does this shed light on a topic that is talked about frequently?

House to hold first hearing on slavery reparations in over a decade
Looks like black people are.
So the US Government is White People? Black people don't pay taxes and contribute to this country?
Interesting perspective.

Why does anyone actually give a crap? I don't get it. You could stick Ronald McDonald on a $20 for all I care....as long as it is worth $20 I don't see the issue. Many countries have different people on the same denomination of money.
Besides, we've already got a woman on money.....Susie B is on the dollar...Sacagawea is on the dollar.
Can someone point out the issue? I must be missing it. Are they changing the font or something?

Well that was a pretty big part of it.

It’s pretty relevant in the grand scheme of the whole “slavery is bad” argument that we all agree on.

I guess you didn’t look at the picture.
Interesting deflection

When did conservatives become such babies? You guys are as bad as liberals now. So she doesn't look like you...get over it. Downvotes incoming.

Honestly it’s not a big frickin deal if it happens. Slavery is bad after all...
Pansies on the OT are going to hate it because they’re racist but I think it’s an actually interesting way to shed light on a dark time in the nation when people who may not know better question who is on the bill. I don’t have a problem with it.
It's pretty annoying to displace history when they're fully capable of doing something new and blazing a new trail, as someone like HT did.
Make the $25 bill. It's new, it's somewhat useful, it doesn't remove anything.

It's terrible to remove such an influential person in US history and replace with someone that had a very small part in helping people during a dark time in our nation.
While she had some nice accomplishments it doesn't compare to what Andrew Jackson did for this country.
Putting her face on currency is nothing more than political pandering.

Yeah totally. Caring about stuff is so snowflakey.
Geez, get with the times and become a nihilist already, loser.

Would rather more $2 bills. Those are the goat.

They are pushing for her to be on the bill bc she is black. THAT is racist. You want to end racism. Stop talking about it. Stop making a big deal every time “a person of color or woman does something new for the first time.” Eventually they will run out of things to celebrate. Instead, they continue to keep racism relevant by pushing it down the throats of people. It’s people like you who foster racism by bringing it into every conversation of disagreement.
This is the dumbest shite I've seen posted in a long time. It's embarrassingly dumb. Does that dumbass philosophy work on abortion too? What about murder, does it work on that? Hey ELT knows how to end murder, abortion, corruption, greed, unfairness and every other ill that plagues society. Stop talking about it. End of problem. Your post was an embarrassment to dumbass posts. It's money. Why the frick do you care so much about who's on it if it spends that same? No good answer other than the obvious.

The overwhelming majority of logical thinking people don't give a flying frick. This is a non-issue. Anyone who makes it an issue is just pandering for attention.
