Whitewashing History

[Mac-7]

That's not a balanced view and the whites that participated in slavery asnd apartheid should be demonized.

No good can come from that except more racial hatred in 2023 on both sides

Slavery, America's original sin.
The issue that drives the GOP is that in their opinion minorities have advanced too far and have become a threat to white supremacy. I guess when you are used to privilege, equality feels like oppression. All their efforts are geared to impose traditional hierarchies and gender roles. Back to the good ol days where everybody knew their place and stayed in their lane. But the bottom line is this - women are not going back into the kitchen. Gays are not going back into the closet and blacks are not going back to the rear of the bus. And that is all there is to it.

You're right. None of us are going back. That's why we need to unify because each of the groups you mentioned are fighting for the same thing.

What will cause more racial hatred is whites trying to force us to believe that slavery was beneficial.

No one is try to make you believe slavery was good for the slaves who were in bondage

Slavery was VERY lucky for you, but not for the slaves

And it is this belief that increases racial hatred.

Given how so many blacks worship a gun thug who beats on pregnant women and other thugs, cecilia was probably not any worse off than if she lived in south Chicago or Queens surrounded by her Homies. Nothing to see here, except some outlier case by frauds who do worse or want to.

Whites like you voted for a rapist president that defrauded people out of money and want to put him backn in office evenn though he's facing at least 37 counts. You talk about blacks, but this woman was raped over and over by a white man. The same type of white mvan who would rape slave men and you enslaved boys and girls. And when he was done with them, he'd rape his wife.

DeSantis is desperate for the racist vote.
No matter how low the Meatball goes, he can't get the MAGAs to like him. Grifty is promising revenge and massive pain for his enemies and the Meatball's anti woke crap isn't cutting it.

I really hope that his failed presidential bid will end his career.

As with most of the ugly things we've seen over the last eight years or so, I would never thought they'd go down this road. Ever. Never.

And while it's inexplicable, we also have to remember that it exposes an attitude that exists with far more than just a few people.

I don't understand what the ultimate goal is here, but I have that same question with both ends on many issues surrounding race.

I think that whites who descend from people than ran away from the vermin infested streets of Europe, or who were sent here to go to debtors prison should not make comments like you have.

You've got real problems Mac. Everything isn't a both side thing.

Yes, not everything is a "both sides" thing.

/——-/ “Thank God my granddaddy got on that boat!”
In the early 1970s Muhammad Ali fought for the heavyweight title against George Foreman. The fight was held in the African nation of Zaire; it was insensitively called the “rumble in the jungle.” Ali won the fight, and upon returning to the United States, he was asked by a reporter, “Champ, what did you think of Africa?” Ali replied, “Thank God my granddaddy got on that boat!” There is a characteristic mischievous pungency to Ali’s remark, yet it also expresses a widely held sentiment. Ali recognizes that for all the horror of slavery, it was the transmission belt that brought Africans into the orbit of Western freedom. The slaves were not better off—the boat Ali refers to brought the slaves through a horrific Middle Passage to a life of painful servitude—yet their descendants today, even if they won’t admit it, are better off. Ali was honest enough to admit it.“

“Can Ron DeSantis explain how being enslaved was beneficial to Celia?

In 1850, a fourteen-year-old girl in Missouri named Celia was purchased by enslaver, Robert Newsom.

Over the course of five years, he repeatedly raped her.

On June 23, 1855 while pregnant with her second child, Celia defended herself against more abuse, resulting in the death of her enslaver and rapist.

During Celia’s trial, Newsom’s grandson William Powell testified.

Powell testified that Celia had complained that Newsom repeatedly demanded sex and that she had approached other Newsom family members in a vain attempt to stop the rapes. Powell also admitted that Celia told him that her attack on Newsom came from desperation and that she only intended to injure, not kill.

Celia was found guilty.

An appeal was filed.

The Missouri Supreme Court ultimately ruled against her appeal.

On December 21, 1855 at 2:30 P.M., the state of Missouri murdered Celia on the gallows.

Are we going to teach children this history?

Or are we going to continue to whitewash history because it makes some people uncomfortable?”

/-----/ This story, no doubt true, just shows an earlier version of democRAT sex slave trade. Today, democRAts import their sex slaves over the southern border.

/------/ Translation of Mac's meme: "Fixing the system" so only Progressives win elections. The slogan "Forward!" as in The Forward Party, reflected the conviction of European Marxists and radicals that their movements reflected the march of history, which would move forward past capitalism and into socialism and communism.

WTF does DeSantis have to with that? He's not even a Democrat.

And for the zillionth time, an authoritarian Trumpster assigns me a political ideology and opinion, simply because I'm not a fellow sheep.

Too funny.

You're one hateful person. Of course, the same bullshit Democrats have played for the last 50 years... Republican = loves slavery/racism.... sure sure.

Last time I checked it wasn't Democrats who were defending slavery.
