When Don Cheadle found out who owned his ancestors as slaves.

An actual person still alive at the time being paid reparations for something they legally owned at the time that was taken away from them to compensate for their loss of money is not the same thing as paying someone for something that happened decades before even their grandparents were born.

No blacks deserve reparations for something that happened a hundred years before they were born. It doesn't effect them.

And no, blacks are not effected by slavery today. Our two time black president, black business owners, black doctors, black congressman, black police chiefs would argue otherwise. Not to mention the millions of poor, dumb, poverty level whites would like to know where their white privilege is at.

And no one is honring or revering the people BECAUSE they owned slaves. No one ever does that. They honor and Revere the people who created this free country we live in right now. If it weren't for all of these hated slave owners we wouldn't live in a country that is free for everyone, even the blacks.

All anyone cares about is they owned slaves. They don't stop and think that they were also a part of a society that took a empty country and turned it into something that would become a world super power in record time and that a billion people around the world want to be a part of.

None of you ever even mention the facts we bought black slaves that were enslaved and sold to us by blacks. You never mention blacks that owned black slaves like William Ellison. You never mention the Chinese slaves used to build railroads. You don't mention places like Barbary where blacks enslaved far more whites than America ever did of blacks. All you ever can muster up is "racist slave owning south".
Here is the thing, the North didn't give two shits about slavery as long as they got their piece of the pie. Prior to the Civil War there are dozens of editorials from Yankee newspapers proclaiming, "You got to send us your money". The South got sick of it, and when they opened a tariff free port in Charleston all hell broke loose. Not once, NOT DAMN ONCE, did the Federal government say, "You need to end slavery", what they did say was, "You need to send us the money".

And here we are, over 150 years later, and we got these stupid SOB's want reparations, hell, just like the damn Yankees, they want their piece of the pie. The Southern aristocracy made money off the backs of the blacks, the Yankee traders in New York made money off the backs of the blacks, now the descendants of those very slaves are demanding their share of the money made off the backs of their long dead ancestors. Appalling if you ask me.
 
Lincoln was a republican ya fuckin dope
I don't care how much you want to make that claim, it is not true. Lincoln was a terrible president, and he was not a Republican any more than Bernie Sanders is a Republican. He was a politician that went wherever the wind blew. He had no principals, he stood for nothing, all he wanted was power. Which seems par for the course for the so called leaders you support.

The Republican convention of 1860 was a total shit show, with backroom dealings and backstabbing that was of historical proportions. And who came out on top, the mentally ill Abraham Lincoln, not unlike the mentally ill Donald Trump. And in 1864 he was not a "Republican", mostly because he was an appeaser. He was perfectly content with slavery as long as the Union could be united. He offered Texas the ability to keep their slaves if they just would not join the Confederacy. He allowed Kentucky to keep their slaves, and failed to free them with the Emancipation Proclamation, because they sided with the Union.

Lincoln was a dick. He sold his soul to the establishment long before he became president. He famously jumped out of a second story window to avoid a quorum call in a vote against the railroads. He, like all damn Republican politicians, was bought and bossed. And since you are so damn ignorant of history, I am sure you don't know where that saying originates.
 

He somehow doesn't know "how to feel about it." That his ancestors were enslaved by the Chickasaw Nation.

Tell us leftist losers. Should we wipe out all memory of the Chickasaw Nation along with the Cherokee Nation along with the various other tribes that fought for the confederacy and owned negro slaves?


Hmmmmmmm?

I have said this NUMEROUS times on this board. Native Americans enslaved MANY MANY MANY PEOPLE.

No nation on earth does not have slavery at some point in their history.

Dems and cult fucks just use it for political gain. They dont actually GAF about slavery in the past OR PRESENT.

THEY ARE FUCKNIG FRAUDS,

At the very least, reparations should be paid.

From your link,

Many Northern Democrats who supported the war as a means of preserving the Union had been dismayed by the Emancipation Proclamation (1863), the promulgation of which suggested to them that slaves’ rights had also become a principal objective of the conflict. At the same time, a faction within Lincoln’s own party—the antislavery Radical Republicans—contended that the actual emancipation of slaves was not being accomplished quickly enough and that the president’s proposals for readmitting Confederate states to the Union were too lenient. Both sides, furthermore, were critical of Lincoln’s wartime restraints on civil liberties.
Couple of things to take from that, first--"slaves' rights had also become". WTF, you mean the Civil War was not all about slavery from the getgo? But that was just an interesting observation. For our purposes,

You want to make the claim that Lincoln was a Republican and the Republican party` was formed to stop slavery. I contend that Lincoln wanted the Union back together and he didn't give two flips rather slavery was ended or not. He demonstrated as much with his actions toward both Texas and Kentucky. He was an appeaser, period. The Radical Republicans, the ones against slavery, broke away--they were the real Republican party. Hell, Lincoln had a Democrat as his running mate. Would a true Republican party have a Democrat as a VP candidate? Seriously? And when the National Union Party dissolved where did most the members go, to the Republican party, no--they went to the Democrat party. It is all right there in your link.
 
No one is asking you to wipe all memory of the Confederacy. Far from it. What's being asked is that you stop HONORING and REVERING these traitors to the Republic. And that you start teaching the truth about slavery and racism in the USA. Stop romantizing the AnteBellum pre Civil War era as some sort of "Golden Age" of the 0ld South.

Slave owners were paid reparations for the loss of their "property" when Lincoln freed the slaves. The descendents of the slaves are still waiting for their compensation.
We have been, I learned about the Confederacy and slavery in the 1980s in elementary school, We have never shied away from this. It's just more bs to get in this commie propaganda.

I guess 40 acres and a mule just wasnt good enough for the slaves? Of course those ex slaves needed to tend the fields that they were given, and by what i see of inner city blacks, i guess those fields failed to produce.
