Thanks to a grant by billionaire David Rubinstein, when you tour the home of 2 term president James Madison— instead of a lesson on The Bill of Rights which he wrote, and the Federalist Papers which he co-authored— you get a 1619 project lecture. (nypost.com)

It’s statistically more likely Rubinsteins ancestors owned more slaves than Madison. Then again we can talk about the overwhelmingly large amount of Jewish slave owners in America and globally? I think it’s time we force every minority to experience the cruelties their ancestors committed and then ask if they want to be white.

Rather, it's more likely that they were involved in the slave trade rather than in slave owning per se, the most cruel part of the slavery system. Middlemen everywhere engaged in trade in humans as though it was like trade in goods.

The mistake is to say that there was anything wrong in slavery at the time. It was simply what existed at the time. The people who judge people in the past for holding slaves are the same kind of people who insist that they would have been the exceptional anti-Nazi rebel - when in fact, their obedience to the norms of the CurrentYear demonstrates that back then, they would have obeyed the norms of the time.

It's also very funny some of these users claiming Jews owned slaves and act as if they are against it when these people have complete and utter disdain against black people. They would be slave owners if they could back then. In fact, if they could get away with it, these neonazis would own black slaves today.

They also forget that this is also a fake narrative as only a minority of Jews owned slaves, and most didn't.

I wouldn't own a black slave today. What good is a sub iq animal that likes to hit things and rape people?

And this is why we are all sure you people are disgusting, and why your fake concern about "slavery" is not selling it.

I don't think having disdain for black people implies wanting to own slaves. The reason there are black people in the United States is the slave trade. If you don't like them being in the United States, then you probably think the slave trade was a bad idea. Pretty much everyone seems to think the slave trade was a bad idea.

The majority of no ethnic group owned slaves, and I've never seen a claim otherwise. Slaves were concentrated on large plantations, though many more families owned a small number of household slaves.

Not explicitly, no, but plenty of people imply that slavery of black people in the US rests entirely with white people and all white people at that. Yet, as you've pointed out, the majority of white people in the US would not have been rich enough to ever own slaves (plus plenty of white people in the US would have had ancestors that arrived in the US after slavery was abolished). Instead, it is likely that the upper class of white people from generationally wealthy families who are the ones who have historic ties to slavery.

Here you can see why the ruling elite love pushing the slavery message on to white people as a whole - it distracts from the actual reality that it is their inherited wealth that was accrued in part due to slavery. If anyone was to pay "repatriations", it should be these people, not white people as a whole. What they are pushing has some resemblance to "privatise the profits, socialise the losses".

"Only a minority of white Southerners owned slaves, and most didn't." Known fact.

I would love to read a study on who did the slave trading and owning to/from/in North America, but I am aware that any such study would have an 80% chance of being tainted by bias, whether from Jews/Dems or neo-nazis.
