Why dont black people deserve reparations?

Why is it ok to uniquely fuk us in the azz for generations and then pretend like we're even just because you stopped? Why is no compensation warranted for that, but compensation gets paid for way less?

'It was so long ago bro' is a nonsense defense because it pretends the cumulative effects have nothing to do with the state of things. Yea, the community that we butt****ed for generations like none of the others just so happens to be at the bottom! Mere coincidence!

I do agree blacks in America were uniquely screwed. Slavery ended a long time ago, but it really wasn't that long ago that segregation was a thing and MLK was marching. However, would reparations do anything really to rectify those wrongs and the generational suffering? Would it change anything at all? Yes, chit was bad, no it wasn't that long ago, but I don't think handing every black person in America $10,000 or even $100,000 in whatever form of reparations is going to fix anything. The problem is a community issue IMO which requires leadership from that specific community to overcome. There is nothing holding any individual black person down anymore but their own self.

Aren't you embarrassed over the fact that you would even consider accepting something like that? What kind of man would try and profit from the blood of the people who were here generations before your grandparents because they happen to look like you? The whole victim mentality is something I will never respect...apparently it's now turned into a recession proof industry.

If you believe things would be so much better in your historical country of origin... why haven't you moved back there and succeeded?

Is this a joke?

I dont agree with reparations, but c'mon, we are giving foreign countries hundreds of billions/free ride to illegals who showed up 5 min ago... and you expect black Americans to say, naaa wee good, thanks for the gesture.

Let’s give reparations to every black person that was a slave here in America. Seems fair to me

Africa should pay reparations to the blacks they imprisoned and sold as slaves if they are still alive. But then again, how lucky are blacks in America today that there relatives were taken out a place like Africa and brought here…….

That’s a crime against all the American people but we are dumb enough to vote the people into power that give out this aid

Ahem.. the United States didn't start slavery, but we were one of the first countries to end it.

I had a conversation with a black woman I met at church who was running for Congress and she brought to my attention that in her lineage, she is a product of a white slave owner and a black slave. She thought the idea was ridiculous for many reasons including the fact that the races are all mixed.

I remember talking with this black kid outside a 7-11 a while back. The conversation delved into what Zuckerberg was pushing - a Universal Basic Income. The black kid thought it was a great idea even when I asked him "don't you think there will be strings attached to that compensation?"

Ben Carson is a brain surgeon. Oprah Winfrey is a billionaire. Obama served two terms. People of all races need to desire financial achievements and accolades through hard work and innovation. But unfortunately, we are being infested with 3rd world civilizations who virtually all of them would think that a UBI would be a good idea. Yes, play video games, watch porn and netflix all day and not have to work - a great idea they think!

The truth is the result is a populace enslaved into taking clot shots and eating bugs.

Why say Americans have to pay for it? Why not the Kings that were paid for it?

As well as are you going to tell Africa to pay reparations for the genocidal slavery they did....... plus interest as well?

Compare and contrast the slavery that has gone on in the world. I think you'd come to realize that African Salve owners were the worst, as they did it for so much longer, and ended it with genocide. Thats why there is no thriving white community in northern africa.

To top it off, they were the ones to do the kidnapping, as well as start the slavery.

6 decades of reparations have been paid so far. Every black nation is at the bottom of the global socioeconomic order and it's been that way since before Europeans set foot in Africa. OP has slave mentality, reinforced by other mental slaves looking for white man massa to act like parents to a child. Grow up fhaggot, learn a touch of history beyond the pinhole, cherry picked crap you half learned in school. You were born free, act like it.

Slavery has been around since humans have been around, and still runs extremely rampant in some countries today. What makes this case so special?

And if we're dead set on solely African slaves, why isn't anyone pursuing the Arabs who were, by far, the greatest slave owners and traders out of Tanzania and northern Africa?

No it's not a joke...you actually think I fancy giving out money to illegals or foreign countries? The only country that I happen to care about is America and its citizens. I actually respect black folks and don't think they need any assistance because quite frankly, I believe they're smart enough and hard working enough to make it on their own. I don't agree with handouts for anyone. The opportunity is here if you choose to take it and not expect it to be handed to you.

You already have reparations in the form of section 8 housing, food stamps, COVID relief for black farmers, black owned business promotion all over big business, affirmative action, Front of the line for COVID vaccines, black only safe spaces, black only graduations, black only grants, minority housing loan benefits, minority owned business benefits, MasterCard black owned business rewards. What more do you want?

One in 100 million. There are 7 billion people in the world. That means there are only 70 such individuals alive today.

I suppose someone should explain that to all the blacks in the NFL, the NBA, every famous black actor, and all the other black millionaires and entrepreneurs that out of every 100 million people, there is only 1 black that stands out from the rest as an example of extreme success through hard work, talent, and innovation.. I guess reparations and a Universal Basic Income are good ideas after all.

Makes an accusation of using extreme outliers to prove a point and then proceeds to use hyperbole in an attempt to refute.

OP is probably on the same mindset as gems like Colin Kaepernick who thinks getting paid millions of dollars for playing a game you love is considered slavery...you're wasting your time. You give them an inch, you're racist for not offering a mile...
