"“America is the greatest country in the world for me, a melting pot of a lot of great races, a lot of great minds that have come together with different ideas to make Americans the greatest country on Earth. Many have died trying to get into America. No one is dying trying to get out,” he said.

“Reparations, where does the money come from? Does it come from all the other races except the black taxpayers? Who is black? What percentage of black must you be to receive reparations? Do you go to 23andMe or a DNA test to determine the percentage of blackness? Some American ancestors just came to this country 80 years ago, their ancestors wasn’t even here during slavery. Some black immigrants weren’t here during slavery, nor their ancestors. Some states didn’t even have slavery.”

Herschel Walker nails it. The man is truly based

It's good, but IMO you left out the best part of what he said.

“Who is the guilty party? Should we start at the beginning where African Americans sold your African American ancestors into slavery? And to a slave trader who eventually sold African American ancestors to slave owners?....I feel it continues to let us know we’re still African American, rather than just American. Reparation or atonement is outside the teaching of Jesus Christ.”

Well, it's that "atonement" is meant to be gotten from whites living now, who never had anything at all to do with slavery. It's a "sins of the father" sort of thing, except in this case, it's more like "great-great-great-etc-grandfather", since American slavery ended many generations ago, and even the grandsons of slaves and slave-holders are all long dead.

Forget the trillions in welfare, they've already gotten reparations: they were born in the US and on top of that [which already makes them luckier than BILLIONS OF PEOPLE] they get constant handouts and special treatment just for being black.

They have it made here frome the start, no wonder they never leave despite supposedly hating it.

I remember a guy posting a graphic on Cringe Anarchy back in the day that showed lifetime per capita tax spending/revenue by the three major ethnic groups in the US. Whites pay in about 225k on average, Hispanics receive about 400k, Black Americans receive over 700k over a lifetime via various social programs. There are your reparations.

Can’t wait for this topic to be laid to rest for good. I guarantee even if they did give reparations the racial grievance industry would still be going strong. You could have an all black congress and senate and they would still whine about “white supremacy”.

I'm absolutely fine with reparations. When they inevitably fail to do any good, it will serve as fuel for Thermidor.

Pushing reparations is just the vanguard edge of the assault on the middle class. That's what the war on whiteness is.
