Enough plantations had slaves for us to understand that when somebofy white is telling a black person they are on a plantation that's not a compliment.Those that cry victim weasel their way into being "heard out" by government officials. Some of those people are behind the recent "tear down the statues" fiasco, where they think they are removing history. What they don't "get" is that they can't erase what has already happened; they can only learn from it. Question is, are they willing to learn from the past so that the future doesn't repeat the same mistakes? In regards to plantations, not all had slaves, yet the way the word has been slung around, many people hear it and have a negative view of it.
Yeah but you are t he one denigrating blacks who are democrats as if the Republican party is the solution.
OK. I can understand that.No, I'm not denigrating anyone.
I'm just sharing my view with regard to the politics of it.
The truth of the matter is that I detest the Republican party worse than I do the Democrat party.
And that goes all the way back to rule 40(b)
The only "Republicans'' I trust are our own minions that we put into the Senate and Congress. Who are, of course, the best ''Republicans.''
We actually see no attack on those Jews. Zero, zilch, nada, none.Enough plantations had slaves for us to understand that when somebofy white is telling a black person they are on a plantation that's not a compliment.
For example,. when we see Jews here complaining about Anti Semitism, nobody tells them they are back in the concentration camps. And even as the majority of Jews vote democrat, we don't see the consistent attacks on Jews just because they vote democrat.
No we don't. Even as the majority of Jews vote democrat just like blacks. You will never see one of these people telling a Jew how they are a captive in a concentration camp because they vote democrat. Slavery was basically blacks in concentration camps for 245 years. Then came Jim Crow.We actually see no attack on those Jews. Zero, zilch, nada, none.
Not even by the farthest right scumbags on USMB.
No, usually hillbilles. So what?It is interesting that the term “plantation” is only used to characterize inner city blacks who receive welfare.
Yet, there are communities of whites in Appalachia, Louisiana, Mississippi, West Virginia who have received government welfare for generations.
Nobody refers to them as plantations
….or white trash or rednecks. No shortage of demeaning terms for lower-class, rural whites.No, usually hillbilles. So what?
When you hear the word plantation, what does it mean to you?
What images come to mind?
Does the word have any racist connotation to you?
I've seen several people on the forum use plantation in very racist ways. Maybe they think people don't notice it or that they think they're being cute or maybe they're going for brownie points and high fives from the racists that frequent this part of

That's funny as I've seen blacks disgruntled with the democrats use those exact same terms.However, using it to refer to blacks who receive Government assistance is demeaning to blacks on welfare and an insult to the horrors of actual plantations
And that makes it OK? Those blacks who do that are sellouts who pander to the racists in the republican party and are mad brecause other blacks don't like that.That's funny as I've seen blacks disgruntled with the democrats use those exact same terms.
So they aren't permitted to diss the democrat plantation then?And that makes it OK? Those blacks who do that are sellouts who pander to the racists in the republican party and are mad brecause other blacks don't like that.
There is no such place and in reality the black repubicans are the problem. But you being a right wing white dude, you think blacks must submit themselves to the racist America right wing whites want.So they aren't permitted to diss the democrat plantation then?
It depends on how the word is used I think. When the phrase is used in a context of the antebellum South, then yes it has racist connotations for many of the southern plantations were manned by slaves. When the phrase "Democrat plantation" is used it is a racist term depicting political pressure put on black people to 'stay on the planation", vote Democrat, be 'woke', support Democrat policies, agenda, language.When you hear the word plantation, what does it mean to you?

The political pressure is not put on sane black Republicans. You don't see Micheal Steele whining about a democrat plantation and he get all kinds of respect from the black community. It the message of the black sellouts white Republicans push in front of us that's the problem. And it is the Republcan party doing exactly what you say Democrats are doing.It depends on how the word is used I think.

But when somebody mentions a 'sugar plantation' in Florida or Brazil or wherever, I don't think race at all.
Nothing is more woke than a black man calling another black man an Uncle Tom for not being on the Democrat plantation.Vernon Jones is a bootlicking Tom.

When people criticize the Democrat Parody, the use of the term “plantation” is employing that imagery precisely because the Democrat Parody appears to view modern American black people as ITS “property,” too.
