Why Can't the Left Let Go of Slavery?

Here's a conversation between two black men wherein the topic is "systemic racism" rather than slavery.

Obviously, there's a strong tie between today's racism and yesterday's slavery. Slavery essentially doesn't exist today because of the 13th Amendment. The Democrats desire to maintain the existence of a victim class is what drives their insistence that racism is systemic in our government and therefore will forever be part of our nation's way of life and the actual slavery of the past will always be the cause of it.

Listen to the words of these two men...especially the closing remarks of the guest.



This is the second video I have seen of the host, Marc Lamont Hill interviewing a conservative He was more polite in the first video by not interrupting the guest so often, but that is a common tactic of a host that recognizes when a point is about to be made that is in opposition to his desired outcome.

Mr. Jay-Juan Shakur Jones is correct in saying that white liberals (including but not limited to Democrats) want the issue of racism (seeded by slavery) to flourish and become a permanent label for the entire country, forever perpetuating their victim class. Their promoting of the 1619 Project and CRT is designed to do exactly that.

Mr. Hill is FOS.

You don't even want to be in a country where you have no arbitrary advantage over every black man do you?

WHAT ARBITRARY ADVANTAGE????

If you don't want to thought of as a racist scumbag then quit coming on these threads and talking shit. It's as simple as that.

... doctors ignored it and to this day are still allowed by corrupt government at local, state, federal, and military levels to inflict the involuntary servitude of civil commitment on defendants at mental health proceedings where they are NOT duly convicted of any actual crimes for which the involuntary servitude of a sentence of confinement in a state mental hospital could otherwise be justified as punishment in accordance with the Thirteenth Amendment.

Holy crap, give it a rest. Every single thread is NOT about your particular struggles with insanity. Get the help you need and try to understand you are not the center of the universe.

Don’t Want to Be Your Grudge Slave​

The British brought slavery to the New World and Americans ended it roughly 230 years later. Every black person descended from slaves owes a debt to their ancestors’ struggles. The abomination of slavery is the reason most black people are here, in the greatest country in the world. I’m guessing almost every black American lives a better life than their counterparts in the modern-day Ivory Coast, where many slaves came from, and where today almost 50% of the country lives in poverty (African poverty, not American iPhone poverty) and the life expectancy for men and women is under 60 years. The poverty rate in Liberia, settled by liberated slaves, is even worse.
Yet some people just can’t let slavery go. Olympic hammer-tosser/headline-hustler Gwen Berry was “pissed” when the National Anthem was played after she won the bronze medal and made it to the Olympic team, even narcissistically suggesting it was a “setup” against her. Why else would they play the National Anthem at an Olympic American sports event other than to piss off an athlete no one has ever heard of in a sport no one knew was a sport?

Comment:
Factually, Slavery only existed in the United States of America for 89 years, 1776-1865.
The Progressive Marxist/DSA Democrat Commies wants to remember when slavery was the law and people were subject and obliged to obey slavery laws. The left needs and wants slaves.
PM/DSA Commies can’t win by productivity.
PM/DSA Commies have discovered they can only win by disqualifying the productive: abuse cultural norms of fairness and culpability (whatever those are at the time) to eject the objectively productive, that competition be removed up for grabs. Having vanquished those who actually do the work, a “cargo cult” follows - having seized the trappings of success, they expect the fruits of productivity will follow; that failing (to their surprise), they handle subsequent supply-and-demand problems by reducing demands - first by rationing, eventually by slaughter. As seen in all Communist totalitarian regimes....

Because the United States has never acknowledged, apologized and atoned for slavery, black codes, the convict leasing system, Jim Crow, separate but equal (which of course never was) which was essentially codified racial discrimination against black people, redlining, racial deed restrictions, "whites only" water fountains, restrooms, restaurants, hotels, etc., etc. etc. not to mention the stolen wealth in terms of outright theft and theft of labor, loss of interest, denial of access to the justice system, again, etc. etc. etc. Oh and let's not forget the oftentimes just cruel and sadistic treatment of black people by whites that was sanctioned by United States law.

I'm sure I left out a bunch of stuff but that should be enough to give you an idea.

Oh and the most important part I forgot to mention is that because the racial discriminatory acts and hatred are still occurring in 2021 in spite of it being unlawful is probably the biggest reason why much progress isn't being made on that front.

You want people to apologize and atone for something that they are not responsible for?

I said the government.

The government now is not the same either.

Stalling until everyone who was directly affected is dead may have sounded like a good strategy at the time it was thought of, but continuing to pretend that changing the laws made everything better without any accompanying change in people's behaviors, hearts or minds and that the only problem now is that black people won't stop talking about the way our government allowed a bunch of white supremacists to screw over members of a an entire race is just stupid, especially since the interest is still accruing on the debt they don't want to acknowledge.

The lunatics that are in control of our government at this time are the same lunatics that have used racial hatred for decades to control the blacks and keep them classified as a self-pitying victim class. The lunatic Democrat Party does not gives a tinker's damn about being unlawful. Whatever works for them will go unpunished.

White supremacy has nothing to do with it. Black civil rights leaders stoke the fires of hatred. Their own livelihood depends on maintaining the victim class and obtaining funding from dupes and businesses that fear demonstrations and boycotts of their products for not supporting the deprived black victim class.

That is the same game that the Democrat Party has been playing ever since 1865. Nothing has changed with them except:

I didn't say the government has not changed. You asked what has changed in our government and I gave you a short list...specific to the current Democrat Party. The Republicans have not changed all that much except that it is replete with RINOs, backstabbers, and other assholes that are more liberal than conservative.

I'm not aware of your age of what list of Presidents you've lived under. The Democrat Party is quite different now from what it was when John F. Kennedy was President. It has morphed from a party that was not anti-American into one that is. I'm not sure when the transformation began but it seems to have mad giant strides between now and then, most significantly under Obama/Biden during the apologetic, Muslim-loving 8 years that we had a Muslim/Kenyan President flying all over the world apologizing and bowing to world leaders and quoting "the Holy Korrrrrran". Obama's weaponizing of the IRS against conservatives only was unprecedented. The Democrat Party changed further when Trump announced his candidacy and started speaking in an unpolished manner, using language the patriots in the USA wanted to hear. Obama weaponized the FBI to spy on Trump's campaign. The FBI ignored the Clinton's crimes. The plethora of candidates on both sides brought out the interests of voters from all political persuasions. Bernie Sanders gave hopes to a growing mob of socialists that was disappointed when Hillary got the nod using super delegates that had already been designated to vote for her regardless of how the primaries went.

Campaign money flowed like water from sources that wanted their political postures enhanced by the power that comes with positions in local, state and federal governments. Muslims got elected to many offices, especially in Muslim enclaves existing in some cities and states. Muslims got elected to Congress. Establishment politicians were unseated by dingbats like AOC and the Squad that followed her lunacy.

Then when Hillary failed to get her expected coronation as a result of being a piss poor candidate compared to Trump, the Democrat Party snowflakes went into TDS, screaming, crying, and swearing to never support him in any way whatsoever.

The Democrat Party became the party of opposition on steroids. It opposed everything that Trump tried to accomplish whether it was good for the nation or not. It pushed for two partisan impeachments and failed to get Trump out on either of them. They are still attacking Trump and anything that bears his name.

The Democrat Party has basically turned into a shithole. That's how our government has changed.

OP, why do you seem so upset about this topic?

I thought the right keeps touting how it was Democrats who enacted slavery and Jim Crow in America, shouldn't you be glad to be screaming this from the rooftops?

The facts that the Democrat Party favored slavery, opposed civil rights for blacks, founded the KKK, established the Democrat Plantation, enables and encourages racial strife, fabricates false claims of racial attacks on blacks by whites, incites or enables blacks to hate whites, cops, and each other explain fully why the left cannot let go of slavery.

The left needs its plantation slaves, victim classes and racial hatred to survive. Without those things, the left would have nothing to push other than socialism/Marxism/communism.

Classic projection if I ever saw one.

Why can't the right let go of the Confederacy?

The confederacy is alive and well, they just changed their name to the Democratic Party.

Can people just answer the question?

Why Can't the Left Let Go of Slavery?

Why should anyone let go of slavery here in the US?

Don’t Want to Be Your Grudge Slave​

The British brought slavery to the New World and Americans ended it roughly 230 years later. Every black person descended from slaves owes a debt to their ancestors’ struggles. The abomination of slavery is the reason most black people are here, in the greatest country in the world. I’m guessing almost every black American lives a better life than their counterparts in the modern-day Ivory Coast, where many slaves came from, and where today almost 50% of the country lives in poverty (African poverty, not American iPhone poverty) and the life expectancy for men and women is under 60 years. The poverty rate in Liberia, settled by liberated slaves, is even worse.
Yet some people just can’t let slavery go. Olympic hammer-tosser/headline-hustler Gwen Berry was “pissed” when the National Anthem was played after she won the bronze medal and made it to the Olympic team, even narcissistically suggesting it was a “setup” against her. Why else would they play the National Anthem at an Olympic American sports event other than to piss off an athlete no one has ever heard of in a sport no one knew was a sport?

Comment:
Factually, Slavery only existed in the United States of America for 89 years, 1776-1865.
The Progressive Marxist/DSA Democrat Commies wants to remember when slavery was the law and people were subject and obliged to obey slavery laws. The left needs and wants slaves.
PM/DSA Commies can’t win by productivity.
PM/DSA Commies have discovered they can only win by disqualifying the productive: abuse cultural norms of fairness and culpability (whatever those are at the time) to eject the objectively productive, that competition be removed up for grabs. Having vanquished those who actually do the work, a “cargo cult” follows - having seized the trappings of success, they expect the fruits of productivity will follow; that failing (to their surprise), they handle subsequent supply-and-demand problems by reducing demands - first by rationing, eventually by slaughter. As seen in all Communist totalitarian regimes....

Pretty broad question. It's like asking: Why can't the right tell the truth?

The correct question you need to ask - Why are the left focused on improving the living standards of African-Americans. Why can't they just focus on white people?

Now, if you have asked that question, the answer would be - Yes, there have been significant improvements in the living standards but there are still discriminations in employment, housing, etc. There is still an overwhelming discrepancy in the way the cops treat Blacks. Till that is improved, the Dems will continue to focus on improving the living standards of African-Americans.

Now, let's get back to my question. Why Can't The Right Tell The Truth?
