And problematic
just because you're a POC doesn't mean you are an authority on this topic
@Tornzy my family moved to America two generations ago, I'm curious if I would need to pay reparations because of things that we had no hand in.
Yes it does
Coloreds empowerment means gibs me dat
so does inheritance by birth
@mikeflarkin that's the question I was asking, where do we draw the line and where do we start?
leftists will be getting shot soon
i guarantee it
yes dobatag we saw it the first time you posted it
Point being..
You need to work so I don't have to
@dobatag that's why I carry a knife.
should blacks now pay reparations to all first nations for the land to which they live on?
lol, that's literally what slavery is Noche
What about the Arab slave traders, do they have to pay reparations?
No
is there a name for the "this problem is too big and complex to solve so we shouldn't even try to do anything about it" fallacy? I hear it a lot
They're also victims of institutionalized racism
it's possible to have an imperfect solution to a real problem and still have that be just
the thing is, I'm not arguing against not solving it, only that "reparations" are not a solution
Is there a name for the "This "Problem" isn't the real problem shut up about it"
you mean like when you talk about climate change and people are like "psh, but what about starving children"
Reparations can't solve their problems since it isn't the solution
some people still own the wealth that was the proceeds of slavery
including many africans...
should they then make reparations for selling them into slavery?
that's up to Africa to figure out I guess
Meh
Everything is white people's fault
I don't agree with that at all
I just happen to be in favour of reparations
I mean, sure, I could get a job, make my own money, grow my own food, pay my own bills...
But white people are white
you could set a class of person where you have to demonstrate slavery in your history, which isn't an impossible feat by any means
Therefore, gimme gimme gimme
I really just don't see the point in reparations, Nobody alive today was a slave back then and even then a very small percentage of people owned slaves to begin with
