I have to ask because of your stupid question. How did you not know your country socially and economically disenfranchised Black people all they way to 1964?![]()
"all they way"?
LOL, you're such a fucking moron.

Why is it everything you say is expressing some emotion you're feeling about me?You excel at saying nothing, and not sounding particularly intelligent while doing so. It’s no wonder you spend your days whining and begging.
You're the one emotionally focusing on an extra y because you can't address the fact that you seemed confused over who alive was disenfranchised by your own country."all they way"?
LOL, you're such a fucking moron.
Nope. We're about "liberty". It's right there in the name. You'll rarely find libertarians talking about "socioeconomic injustice". That's just an excuse for government to control labor and resources - aka socialism.It's only a wedge for those who don't want to see Black Americans justly compensated for the socioeconomic injustice they endured. As a libertarian, isn't that what you're supposed to mostly be about?![]()
Segregation was government controlling labor and resources. Reparations is about holding them accountable for it. You're only a pretender.Nope. We'e about "liberty". It's right there in the name.

Indeed it was. Glad we finally ended that bullshit.Segregation was government controlling labor and resources.
Again - hold them accountable. File your lawsuit, assess the damages, and your government will pay the bill. But, as you noted, you're after something more than accountability. You want government in charge of "socioeconomic justice".Reparations is about holding them accountable for it. You're only a pretender.
Ending it isn't the same as making people whole for the injustice they suffered.Indeed it was. Glad we finally ended that bullshit.
Where did I say that? You're conflating issues. There's the broader picture of how you and I think government should operate and then then there's whether or not Black Americans have been justly compensated for the harm done which again was not just economic. It was social as well. They were denied social mobility along with economic mobility. You just don't have any desire to address that.Again - hold them accountable. File your lawsuit, assess the damages, and we'll pay the bill. But, as you noted, you're after something more than accountability.

Projecting about what exactly?Why is your every post some transparent projection?
How do you quantify damages when Ben Carson is a brain surgeon, when the Kenyan was POTUS twice?It's only a wedge for those who don't want to see Black Americans justly compensated for the socioeconomic injustice they endured.

Explain, rationally, what those two people have to do with reparations for the injustice of segregation.How do you quantify damages when Ben Carson is a brain surgeon, when the Kenyan was POTUS twice?
In what nation do black folks rank higher on the socioeconomic scale than they do here in the U.S.?
Do you even realize that you’re the reason the stereotypes exist that you rail against?Projecting about what exactly?![]()

I'm not responsible for how poorly others think but I will find it amusing.Do you even realize that you’re the reason the stereotypes exist that you rail against?
They prove that living a ‘black life’ is a choice…that pretending to be oppressed is simply pretending.Explain, rationally, what those two people have to do with reparations for the injustice of segregation.
And there’s your problem, you don’t take responsibility for anything. A mind is a terrible thing to waste.I'm not responsible for how poorly others think but I will find it amusing.![]()

So, you've been pretending all this time?They prove that living a ‘black life’ is a choice…that pretending to be oppressed is simply pretending.

In your response a couple of posts ago. I said the reparations would be fine if we paid out a settlement an moved on. But you want government to be tasked with ensuring socioeconomic justice. The "accountability" bit is just a ruse.Ending it isn't the same as making people whole for the injustice they suffered.
Where did I say that?
As Libertarians we have been disenfranchised since 1913 when the so-called progressives enacted the Marxist (a) heavy graduated income tax and the(2) Federal Reserve Acts - both of which are planks of the Communist ManifestoAs a libertarian, isn't that what you're supposed to mostly be about?
