I guess his primordial politico genepool got a little polluted along the way.
Stuff haPPens.. But to actually demand special treatment?
The noive..
“...his distant relations were racist...” I would argue that being a slaveholder does not equate to racist, but whatever makes Ben feel and look bad (his acting comes to mind) is okay by me.
Why does he care so much about what his ancestors did?
But Benny, baby, he was a good Democrat just like you !
Dude should be slinking his ass back to pansy town with that new Netflix Daredevil show now out. It really shows what a pu$$y he was/is in his ridiculous role in that movie.
He should be really ashamed...poofter.
Who gives a crap? This just shows how totally irrational all this race crap is.
Ben Affleck's family were slave owners. He needs to empty his coffers
to pay reparations immediately!
Never be ashamed of your history.
Paging Winston Smith, we have determined Affleck’s ancestor to be an “unperson”.
Ben Afflicted....what a mindless dope.
Is this the same Gates of the beer summit fame?
Uh Oh. This twit is not a pure-blood leftist.
He will have a problem rising in the Party apparatus because of his “troubled background.”
He doesn't. He cares what YOUR ancestors did.
He just doesn't want to be called out in his hipocrisy.
I need you like Ben Affleck needs acting school,
He was terrible in that film.
I need you like Cuba Gooding needed a bigger part,
He’s way better then Ben Affleck.
And now all I can think about is your smile,
And that s-—ty movie too,
Pearl Harbor sucked and I miss you
Affleck is married to Jennifer Garner and has three kids.
Hang on. Just because someone way back then owned slaves, they were ‘racist’?
There were some black slave owners too. Most slaves in the Roman empire were Europeans.
Ben and his buddies need to confront the fact that the U.S. used to be a slaveowning society. That doesn't make Ben and other descendants of slaveowners bad people or the U.S. a bad country. It happened, we confronted it and we changed. And they might stop demonizing the descendants of those who fought for the confederacy - i.e. their ancestors.
So concerning the “sins of the father” and Liberal/Progressivesw....
Slavery, it is perfectly fine to damned reparation from distant descendants of slaves.
Illegal Immigration, it is NOT fine to deport the children (immediate descendants) of illegal immigrants....
Can’t have a good liberal smeared by a little slave ownership.
