I’ve never owned any slaves and I don’t know anyone who has ever been a slave.
I can understand someone trying to scam/game the system for “reparations”. Folks are always looking to get more out of a given system. That’s basic greed. I get that. It’s one of the basic motivations. So, while I may not agree with their premise or point of view, I don’t really have a problem with them making the attempt.
What I *do* have a problem with is when they cop an attitude simply because I tell them “No” and expose their scam for what it is.
Reparations are already being paid. Shut down gov/assisted housing, welfare, food stamps and EDT cards and you’ll see who’s already receiving them.
