Zone1 Here's Why White Guilt About Slavery Is Insane

[Hafar1014]

Stop lying to yourself, white man.

This paper examines the U.S. government’s instigation, participation, authorization, and perpetuation of federal housing discrimination against black-Americans from the 1930s to the 1980s and the damage that such discrimination caused and continues to cause today. Delving into the U.S. government’s twentieth century federal housing practices, this paper discusses how the government effectively barred black-Americans from obtaining quality housing and from investing in housing as wealth, while simultaneously subsidizing and endorsing white homeownership, white suburbs, and white wealth.

Part I examines the U.S. government’s housing practices—from the New Deal until the 1968 Fair Housing Act and its 1988 Amendments—to reveal that although the New Deal’s national housing programs revolutionized homeownership and home equity in the United States, the U.S. government’s federal housing programs were racially discriminatory. Specifically, and quite shockingly, the U.S. government actively created and promulgated racist neighborhood rating systems that constructed black neighborhoods and black property as unstable, volatile, hazardous, and not worthy of investment. Using these racist rating systems, the federal government endorsed racial covenants and invested federal money into the creation and accumulation of white wealth, the value of whiteness, white suburbia, and white homeownership. Meanwhile, the government denied blacks federal housing funding, fueling black stigma and barring black-Americans from the invaluable twentieth century opportunities of homeownership and home equity.

Understanding the U.S. government’s discriminatory housing practices, Part II discusses and quantifies the effects of the government’s housing discrimination on black-American households and communities. Finding that approximately 120 billion 1950s dollars—or more than 1.239 quintillion 2019 dollars—were invested to subsidize and create white-American wealth through homeownership,

Whites lead the nation in crimes against family and children every motherfucing year, white man. So, having two parents hasn't stopped the white abuse of spouses and children. Whites lead the nation in shoplifting, according to the UCR as well. Your culture is the failure trailer park, that is why you elect a felon to be in charge of making and enforcing the law.

So whats your excuse for the failure of Blacks today?
No fathers high crime and murder refusal to take responsibility a culture of violence, mean IQ 85 largest group on welfare.

The root cause f the problem blacks face right now is the continuing racism from the failing right-wing part of white culture that is always looking for someone to blame for their inability to suceed an will use any means necessary, including violence or frivolous court cases, to make certain whites continue having an advantage.

Whites have higher crime and violence, and as we see with you and the other trailer dwellers here, it is the failing right-wing part of white culture that refuses to take responsibility. Furthermore, the right-wing part of white culture is uneducated an ignrant.

Its poor cultural values, boys who never grow up, failure to take responsibility, highest crime rate and you kill each other 93% of the time. How fn dumb is that

Modern woke pseudo-history paints a fabricated story of slavery; that white men came to Africa, stole Africans from their lands, and brought them to America. It was White American men, and only White American men, who were guilty of this, and it was a large majority of them as well. This was unique to the world at the time and in world history, and is a special evil in the history of mankind.

Of course, this is all complete nonsense, and is just woke propaganda we were taught in schools or are being told by politicians or media pundits today. But it's important to look at the context and just how insanely wrong these claims are. Let's look at total number of slaves, for example:

It is absolutely true that the Trans-Atlantic slave trade, in which Africans captured other Africans and sold them, shipped approximately 12.5 million slaves across the Atlantic to the Americas.

The Issue becomes where those slaves were taken. A woke liberal would probably assume that 12.5 million slaves were taken from Africa and sent to the American south. That would be insanely false. The breakdown looks like this:

• 5.4 million were sent to Brazil
• 3.6 million were sent to the Carribean
• 1.2 million were sent to Jamaica
• 900,000 were sent to St. Dominique (French Colony)
• 889,000 were sent to Cuba
• 470,000 were sent to the United States

So in this cry of woke left Democrat social justice warriors... cries of the unique evil of America, white men, etc... they make the claims they do when American only partook in 3% of the Trans-Atlantic Slave trade.

Add to that how there were only about 390,000 slave owners in the USA out of a population of 31 million... and you have approximately 1.2% of the population participating or benefitting from it, yet is that what Democrats, leftists, or educators say, address, or teach?

Slavery is an evil that has existed as long as human history has. All races have been enslaved, many continue to be. As far as America is concerned, it basically happened for 90 years nearly 200 years ago. However, no woke Democrat can legitimately point the finger at the USA as some unique evil in slavery, nor can they say we were any leader in it. They need to point the finger at Africans of the times first, and then all the South American/Brazilian/Carribean nations who were far greater participants.

And this is just the Trans-Atlantic slave trade. Again, Slavery exists across the world at far greater rates throughout history.

So, any person who wants to demonize the USA and White people as a unique evil as far as slavery, or as a major historical cause of it, is just revealing their tragic indoctrination and ignorance of history.

And then there is Aesop's Fable about the Wolf and the Lamb, which covered all that is necessary 2600 years ago.

And 77 million idiots voted for another collapse.

IM2 never answers this question of mine, so perhaps you can:

If racism is the cause of the problems among blacks in poverty, what is different about the blacks who moved into the middle class? Why didn’t racism cause them to remain mired in the ghetto?

TIA.

 

[JoeB131]

Even worse, that lefty compared Republicans to the Nazi Party!

Maybe they should stop acting like Nazis.

I have asked that question probably 20 times:

If “racism” explains why blacks are less educated, poorer, have higher crime rates, etc., then how come “racism” did not hold back all the blacks who moved into the middle class?

Um, how about all the whites who live in trailer parks, Lisa. Some people are just lucky.

The answer of course is something blacktivists can’t admit: that the blacks who moved from poverty to the middle class did so by being motivated, disciplined, taking advantage of opportunities (like Pell Grants), NOT having three illegitimate children when they weren’t married, and obeying laws.

The problem with that answer is that it shows that blacks (like anyone else) are responsible for their own outcomes by virtue of wise choices and good values.

Some people are incapable of highly skilled positions
Our society has always relied on unskilled labor in the workforce.

Used to be an unskilled worker could support a family without public assistance. Salaries have not kept up

Taxes have increased massively along with deficits and higher cost of living through more inflation. The fiat currency giveth and the fiat currency taketh away.

An excellent question and one I ask myself. I recall reading in John McWhorter's book "Woke Racism" the following stat: 13% of black students are disciplined for violent misbehavior in the schools. Of course the Woke activist will blame racism which leaves me scratching my head. Only 13%?? What about the 87% of black who aren't disciplined? Why would these racist teachers be so selective as to only discipline 13% of the black students?

The economy collapsed under COVID
That was the economy given to Biden

Trump was given strong economies by both Obama and Biden

The Progs made it worse as they acted like nazis and wasted their resources. People were telling them. To no avail. Shutting down their states and cities while still paying everyone off. Joe in the video talking to the stupid 15-year-old girl crying over climate change phuked us all over. These are the things the founding fathers talked about.

There is no systemic racism in America. The main cause of black problems is the Great Society welfare state. Until then they were making great strides in education jobs intact marriages low crime and then the welfare state destroyed that. It paid women to have babies and took the money away if they married. It created a dependent class where women married the state and had no use for a father. It made them easy to control because they will vote for their free benefits. In psychology its called learned helplessness. The result is what we see toady, single mothers high crime and poverty boys who never mature and cant take responsibility.

Are you willing to change welfare rules to maintain the existing payment if there is a spouse?
Pay a family of four the same as a single mother with two kids
It would help preserve families

 

[Hafar1014]

It collapsed under Trump
Biden fixed it

Trump didnt cause covid but our recovery was strong thanks to Trumps existing economy. Then Biden came in and in 12 months we had 9.1% inflation and 5.00 dollar gas.

If they are married and have two incomes why do they need welfare. Welfare destroys families so your question makes no sense

BIden saved us from COVID

Covid deaths increased after Biden came in and he got everything wrong. The vaccine does not stop the spread, closing the schools did nothing, locking down the economy made it worse. Covid simply ran its course and we would have been better off if we had president who could think

Why do we have to “pay” families at all? With a married couple, one works full-time and the other stays at home with young kids. Then once they are in school, the mother can return to work as well. That’s a dual-income family.
