Yet America will never overcome the sins of slavery?

Different times and no social media.

That's because Democrats can blow it up and use slavery as a talking point..in every election, to continuously incite outrage. Normally by trying to convince black people that anything wrong in their lives is because of white people and slavery. ..and the only way to fix it, is by voting Democrat.

Nothing better than an SJW going to a impression-inducing statue protest in a VW Jetta.

Because the United States of America rebuilt them both.

For Germany/Europe, google the Marshall Plan and research.

Oh, and also different times. Sniveling revisionist SJWs would have had the dog shite beat out of them back then.

I think asking how Japan overcame shite like colonizing Taiwan and Korea is a better comparison

We as a country wrote a lot of the checks that helped both those countries overcome.

For the record Germany has not overcome the stain of killing 6 million Jews. Look at the lack of freedom of expression on certain topics in that country.

Because they stamped out the Nazis who fled to other countries. In the US we allowed the racism to continue for another 90 years or so.

And for everyone saying Germany was rebuilt, the US helped rebuild the South as well.

Why admit slavery is a sin? It has existed since prehistoric times as a viable economic component of almost every society.

Just because values change in some parts of the Western world, it does change history.

Some people got up and took care of business while others continue to make excuses. Pretty simple actually.

Well I can tell you how Germany overcame WW1, but you probably won’t like it. It begins with an “A” and ends in an “r” and in the middle is “dolf Hitle”

A shite ton of American taxpayer money.

Japan should thank their lucky stars we dropped those two bombs on them. If we had invaded, tens of millions of them would have died, and every city, town, and village would have been like Stalingrad. The entire country would have been razed. The Soviets would have likely ended up occupying half of the country, making it commie. There would be no chance that Japan would be the economic powerhouse it is today if it wasn't for the a-bomb.

Three reasons:

1. America helped.

2. Japan was populated with Japanese people.

3. Germany was populated with German people.

I know 2 & 3 aren't popular with the melting pot crowd, but a sense of homogeny certainly was a catalyst in their recovery.

Because we've been having the same discussion since the 1900s at least.

The US hasn’t overcome slavery? In what ways have Germany and Japan “overcome” the Wars that the US hasn’t overcome slavery?
