I guess it really is true that blacks can’t make it without handouts. It took a while, but now I’m convinced.
I think you hit the nail on the head. Many of the black farmers of the 60s and 70s quit farming when they started getting handouts from the feds.
“I guess it really is true that blacks can’t make it without handouts”
Or whining. Whine whine whine I’m amazed they manage to make it through the day without dropping dead from their self imposed misery.
What Obama is doing is exactly the sort of subtle race-warmongering that I was most afraid of. This will be the final thing that breaks us as a people for good. Reparations are as abhorrent as it gets.
But...
This is also the reason for any problems "blacks" might be having as a group. They are every last bit as capable as any other group, and any suggestions to the contrary is outright racism. But when you are treated like a victim, you start thinking like one, and that is exactly what is happening here. In other words, the oligarchical powers have a vested interest in making everyone feel helpless, and wholly dependent upon their good graces. They do it with everyone, but it is easier to do with blacks given the history of how we all got here.
When you react like this, you only feed right into their plan. To the extent that modern blacks are "victims", it is that they are victims of the state, not of any race. They are more victims of the first black president than any one of us. To get them, and anyone, to think that way is exactly their game. *Don't* play along.
