Aetna and NY Life sold life insurance for slaves. If they profited off of slavery, then so did every merchant that sold supplies that were consumed or used by slaves.




Are you arguing that slaves took out life insurance on their own lives?

With what money?

Do you think the payouts from these policies went to the families of slaves?

Are you this hateful to everyone who presents ideas with which you're unfamiliar, or do you reserve this behavior for only when you can hide behind anonymity and a keyboard?

Now hold on.. let’s see the reply to her absolute false claims that there aren’t many reparations studies giving payments right to people and the reply of the overwhelming evidence of fraud and lack of improvement of the black community by BLM.

Lazy arse grifters need to be given 100k each, citizenship revoked, and repatriated to the country and tribes that sold their ancestors centuries ago.

Are you not able to read posts? I'm curious why you think I'm claiming slaves "consumed" their own life insurance policies.

I did not. I offer BLM as a study on what your picture of reparations would be. Here is the quote from my post:

quote:

You think “investment in black communities” is a real priority? Other than lip service? Ok. Then explain where all the BLM donations went. Any scholarship funds? New schools? What? Where did the money go that Tyree Conyers-Page raised for BLM Atlanta go? Where? Remember what Tamir Rice’s mother said about BLM? “they are benefiting off the blood of our loved ones, and they won’t even talk to us.”


So you may continue.

Again. I did not. Take a deep breath and read again. Take a short break if it’s too hard and then come back and try again.


Edit: annnnnnnnnnnd she gone.

That's cute, coming from the guy who is so upset by ideas his ignorant brain hasn't heard of before that he's seething at his keyboard and anonymously calling strangers names on the internet.

Bless your heart.

ETA: maybe not calling people names, but laughing at the people who have been exposed to ideas that can be found outside of this echo chamber.

Carry on.

How about we pay reparations but then cut out all current and future EBT, Welfare, Medicaid and food stamps.

It would be a win for the taxpayers

Seems like a better argument against there being any need for reparations.

You are actually the one coming into these threads with a savior complex.

Ideas we haven’t heard of? Ideas like handing the minority community handouts to improve their lives? Oh I think we have ALL heard of those ideas.

Now back to the topic prior to your deflection. Your quote:
quote:

Most of the arguments I've seen for reparations don't call for payments to individuals.


Now you have been shown this is false or you haven’t looked very hard.

quote:

They call for investment into black communities, which looks like infrastructure, after school programs, etc.


For which I replied:
quote:

You think “investment in black communities” is a real priority? Other than lip service? Ok. Then explain where all the BLM donations went. Any scholarship funds? New schools? What? Where did the money go that Tyree Conyers-Page raised for BLM Atlanta go? Where? Remember what Tamir Rice’s mother said about BLM? “they are benefiting off the blood of our loved ones, and they won’t even talk to us.”


And you have been further shown of the fraud of the national BLM heads that have bankrupted the organization by spending on lavish cars, do nothing huge salaries, homes, vacation homes, clothes, etc.

All of the combined donations to all BLM chapters is enough in money to pave every last mile of US interstate highway. Money that could have been used for “infrastructure improvements”. Where did it go?

Now you wanna give MORE money?

quote:

but laughing at the people who have been exposed to ideas that can be found outside of this echo chamber.


Handing the minority community more money for “improvements” IS the echo chamber if you haven’t noticed.

Now to the next deflection….
