i have to say im surprised by the sensibility of marriane williamson's reparations plan
wasnt sold on reparations before
now i am
reparations for events 150 years ago that anyone alive now is multiple generations seperate from
sigh
that will never fly with anybody moderate
see thats where i was wrong too
it was from 1600-1850 that slavery existed
but it was from 1850-1960s that institutionalised racism was in place
so this had gone on for 350+ years
and only ended in the last 50 or so years
you think that doesnt have negative effects that reverberated generationally and which need to be atoned for economically?
ive heard numbers for reparations in the trillions
so thats where i usually switched off
but marriane's plan is 200-500 billion
depending on whats politically viable
if they hear it from her mouth, im convinced that people would come on baord
shes very eloquent
500 billion
hm
good luck convincing anybody but the fringe on that one
some AOC level bullshit
no dude
its not 500 billion in 1 year
its 500 billion over 10-20 years
ie its fucking pennies
but its not a handout either
oh okay thats sensible then
its going to be spent on education and structural shit
/s
.......
put it towards education in general
an education system which is already rigged towards minorities with affirmative action
NoT GoOd EnuF
sigh
`good luck`
yea good
black people are so fucking far behind because of the government and society's treatment of them
350 years of it
