The First American City To Authorize "Reparations" Is Already Regretting It | ZeroHedge (www.zerohedge.com)

Few prior threads I've made on this subject matter:

  • Senior Biden Adviser Says White House Will Start Acting on Reparations Without Congress
  • Chicago Suburb To Pay Black Residents Reparations Due To 'Wealth And Opportunity Gaps'

They're worth skimming to see attitudes and points brought up them for comparison.

This article was very interesting as they're being fairly explicit about their agenda on financial 'equity':

Then there’s the $10 million. It had seemed a smart idea to use the marijuana sales tax to pay for reparations. It’s such a convenient, tidy model that other communities might copy it. That’s the problem, Brown says. “I kind of call it reparations on the cheap. There’s no pain involved. I think it would be a different dynamic if reparations became an element of the city budget—of the core city budget—and the city government was saying, ‘We’re going to allocate a hundred million dollars over this period of time to fund the reparations budget.’” The city’s annual budget, for reference, is about $300 million. “This is just not costing anyone anything. So they’re OK.”

Rest of it doubles down on reparee attitudes. Never enough!

It's a government slush fund swindle. We are talking about Chicago black democrats here right?

Aaand it's gone-

The Asian cultural characteristics that you mention are also present in Asia. I am pretty sure the black ones are not. The reason why blacks everywhere do engage in this sort of behavior is because that is the sort of thing that is rewarded.

If whining about 'racism' got white people $$$, preferential treatment and an ability to do whatever the hell they wanted, you would see that behavior more among whites.

Note that this behavior is much less common in Europe, where the second most sacred class is Muslim rather than black. In fact, a black family attempted to pull the Starbucks stunt in a KFC (because of course) in Germany, and things did not exactly go well for them. This happened in Berlin, the San Fransicko of Europe.

The low - or rather, zero - expectations put on blacks, the denial of agency, the learned helplessness taught them is doing a number on them.

Is this true though? Black Africans who come to the US are completely different than blacks born here, and they both hate each other. For example aren’t a lot of the Nigerians that come here more hard working and not how you described?

There’s no pain involved.

Let's not overlook this. It's not enough to compensate, they want to watch you suffer. You need to be humiliated.

"Racial Justice" requires violent retribution and endorses genocide. This is why The Holocaust was the most successful Racial Justice program in history.

Hey Giz, I wondered if you'd pick up on that.

Seems like retribution is a core part of reparations, at least as far as vocal elements of that community are involved.

That's an important lesson. You can't pay them enough to make them stop wanting to hurt you. They'll take the money, sure. And then they'll hurt you.

Of course I'd pick up on the face of evil.

The kind of resentment-monger that enjoys this stuff will rationalize all of the violence and chaos they create. It's that whole wolves v. sheepdogs mentality. Know the face and movement of the wolf. Then destroy it.

The problem is that these people are hard to take seriously with how deluded they sound, but once in power they fight like the devil to stay in and cause as much damage as humanly possible. It's like putting a school shooter as the mayor.

The nature of catastrophe is that people normally fail to realize just how quickly things can go badly wrong with everyone left worse off. That's the normalcy bias: people think things don't go as badly as quickly as they can because they normally don't. It's why people stand around confused when they start hearing gunshots going off.
