It’s not just whether or not you owned a slave anymore. You are supposed to feel guilty for simply being born white.
Screw em. I have no guilt.

The entire idea is laughable, but what is more laughable, there are actually “white” people out there that feel some sort of guilt for the “institutional racism inherent in America perpetrated by the white class”. I scream BS, but really, I know some of these guilt ridden whites, losers and Obama lovers every one. Ignorant because they don’t know their history, pathetic to not be aware they are being HAD, and in reality, these are the first victims in any black on white crime, they simply are too stupid to realize it’s not white racism, but black racism.

“including to the “Troll Fund,” which Marin created so that for every racist message the site receives, one dollar will go directly to someone requesting financial assistance. (Donors have been dubbed “Troll-Slayers,” and, as the site boasts, “Hate can buy groceries now.”)”

This is tempting, and could get expensive for them, but I’m pretty busy today.

I love these freaks and the fact that the MSM enables their mental illness. Why?

Because my haikus literally write themselves; no thought is required. Thus:

My white privilege
more accurately called
“work ethic, no drugs”

"...I’ll buy a one way plane ticket for someone to go “home” to Africa..."

What you say is offensive. To posit we'd put those folks on planes or boats, and repatriate them to their ethnic homeland is insulting. I want no part of it.

I will, however, donate to a fund to buy them swim trunks.

” White people have a responsibility to do something to help dismantle white supremacy and white privilege, and people of color are experiencing trauma and stress related to white supremacy and white privilege.”

Oh, I think we should help with this problem.... by having a few thousand people self-identify as a person of color and go ask for their gibsmedat.

POC: I have invisible slave shackles on me and my family!

I need ONE WHITE PERSON to give up their life for me to be free of these shackles!
I need one WHITE PERSON to give up an arm for another family member!
I need one WHITE PERSON to give up a leg or two for another member!
I need one WHITE PERSON to give up an eye for another!
I need one WHITE PERSON to lose everything for another!

That is ONE for ONE Slave! Any volunteers?

Already been done, 1861-1865. 700,000 dead, tens of thousands more gave up arms and legs and eyes, others lost everything.

Reparations have been paid in blood.

Since I first posted this,the number of Civil War dead has been revised upward.

I wish I could take credit.

I merely excrete the concepts I have absorbed previously.

There really is nothing new under the sun.

But yeah, and oldie but a goodie!

well over 95% of americans never owned slaves or participated in slavery in any way... the population of the country at the time was around 1,000,000 with only 50,000 total slave owners.

Most people came to America around 1900... ergo, most of us had nothing to do with slavery in the first place... I guess we all look like prior slave owners to certain kinds of people though ... and that is enough...

Make that a black female and ask for twice as much.

The basic concept of Marin’s site is this: White people have a responsibility to do something to help dismantle white supremacy and white privilege, and people of color are experiencing trauma and stress related to white supremacy and white privilege. So Marin created a simple platform through which white people can offer, and people of color can request, goods or services—everything from groceries to funds for emergency surgery to chakra cleanses.

If these white folks really want to do something to help the cause, may I suggest they kill themselves. Really, it's the only way.

Cool! Now we have a private voluntary welfare system to go along with our mandatory government system. Even more reason for slugs to do nothing for themselves other than to collect and spend more of other people’s money.

How about a site that collects donations for people who are victims of black racism?
