my people were enslaved by vikings. where are my reperations?

native americans were enslaved by fellow native americans. who pays their reperations?

african natives enslaved their own and sold them to arab muzzies way before whites. can they pay?

who pays all the blacks in brazil for the millions of slaves there?

slavery went on between all continents except antartica. different races and colors.

this shite is beyond retarded.

Asheville
Forget Asheville. Has Wilmington ever meaningfully addressed the coups that killed dozens of peaceful black citizens and stole their property of them all?

Yep and:

The Scots, Welsh, and Irish were treated worse than slaves by the Brits.

The Germanic and Gaul Frankish were enslaved by Romans.

The Greeks and Eastern European Christians were enslaved by the fricking Turks.

Black Barbary pirates enslaved all sorts of Europeans captured.

The list of Whites enslaved goes on forever.

Except we didn't get a "victim complex", we built Western Civilization and raised it to new heights with empire upon empire and republic upon republic.

I won't comment on the logical conclusion to draw here.

Sales of flatscreens and Air Jordans are about to go through the roof in Asheville.

The 618,222 men that lost their lives during the Civil War is reparation enough in my opinion.

So it’s symbolic virtue signaling bullshite that means ultimately nothing but makes people feel good about themselves?

There is plenty of available land at the Biltmore for some Section 8 housing.

I guess they missed the part where the South was an economic disaster area for close to 75 years following the end of the WBtS.


Good point. Southerners deserve reparations because we were deprived of the same level of economic support from the federal government, including education and infrastructure, that the north and Midwest received for a hundred years or more after that war. Some regions in the south didn’t even receive electricity till the late 1950’s

None of what you listed has anything to do with the US sovereign potentially paying reparations.

Asswipe. Blacks being slaves 160 years past also has nothing to do with the US sovereign paying reparations.
