The problem with our lefty friends is that they don't really want to have what they call a "conversation." Their idea of conversation is for highly trained activists to ram their morality down our throats and then demand we say thank-you.
Right now they are sticking it to us over the question of reparations and concentration camps.
So when Democrats rile up their black base with demands for reparations -- that’s loot and plunder to ordinary deplorables -- and when Mean Girl of the Month AOC talks idly about “concentration camps,” well, all they are doing is trolling for votes.
Let's take slavery and reparations. First, slavery. It was ubiquitous in human society up until the day before yesterday. Here are a few words from The Year 1000 by Robert Lacey and Danny Danziger.
Welleas, or Welshman, was one of the Old English words for slave -- which showed where the Anglo Saxons got their slaves... Bristol was a slave port, trading with the Viking slave merchants based in Ireland. According to contemporary chronicles, eleventh-century Dublin operated the largest slave market in western Europe.
But here’s the kicker:
People also surrendered themselves into bondage at times of famine and distress... [I]n the year 1000 the starving man had no other resort but to kneel before his lord or lady and place his head in their hands... It was a basic transaction -- heads for food.
In later times, starving young men “went for a soldier” and took the King’s shilling in order to get fed.

It is all the RATS can do. They would lose any and all rational debate.
The beauty of all this is that the Rats themselves are seething with anger against that chick with the horse teeth for her anti-Semitic tone against Jews.
Concentration Camps? Yeah right.
These people are just sick...I don’t have any other description for them... Just sick
How would they like to do reparations for all those white unionists that died for their sakes. We are all slaves until we accept the death of Christ for our freedom. Reparations includes gratitude. Does anyone want to honor the one who paid?

So the Left defended and fought against the United States to keep their slaves, not they was those who were opposed to Slavery to pay reparation, and that same Left that built the camps 9 years ago, well, they blame it all on the folks who inherited their camps. The Left, never looking for solutions, always creating problems and dividing the people
I have no “lefty friends”.....just enemies that I totally despise.
I must be in line for some free stuff, eh what?
Of course not!
And, free-dom is everything over free-stuff.
Would the descendants of slaves be better off if their ancestors had stayed in their country of origin.
Go back to the mother country for reparations and thank your ancestors who came to the US....by any means...for their sacrifice FOR YOU
My mother was Irish and English. She always fought with herself
‘We are all slaves until we accept the death of Christ for our freedom.’
speak for yourself...I am enslaved to neither man nor entity,,,
