Exactly. I remember a white leftist on Tucker Carlson who lived in the Seattle area was wringing his hands about living on stolen land and he had to acknowledge his white privilege. Tucker asked why he didn’t give his wealth away to the tribe that once lived in that area. The guy was at a loss for words.
But that’s my answer when they use the “built on slavery or stolen land”. Either I tell them to find the perfect paradise they seek or to do some world history and they see that is pretty common around the world. I think we have re-hashed American slavery enough let’s “hash” African slavery.
This message is for idiots: I do not condone slavery, punch yourself in the crotch if you try to argue that
European slavery was extremely bad in the transit phase but when they got there, it was more to keep them alive as long as possible as they didn't want to buy more if needed. African slavery was by conquest same as in South America but that also involved human sacrifice
Then there's Arabic slavery, oh boy...with the mass castration, which ironically enough is WHY there isn't any race issues in the middle east.
I'd say the best one was probably roman as there was ways you could earn citizenship, buy your way out and a way out for children.
Good points. Although I’ve read about some brutal African slave owners. I guess my main annoyance is that these people act as if slavery and land conquest is unique to America
Because combined with Lincoln's (I highly recommend watching Razorfists hour long breakdown of Lincoln) actions, it has the most bad blood with it
The Europeans mostly just bought the slaves freedom to avoid a war, then the British further used it's resources to stop new slaves being delivered. It's why BLM died early in Europe, you're telling the people who had debts to pay for your freedom that only recently got cleared that they owe you more, your reparations was already paid to your ancestors to free them!
It's interesting, there were presidential candidates who supported buying and freeing slaves. They were not considered mainstream and either ignored or killed.
I plan on watching that video. In hindsight I wish we had done it that way. I guess I meant more in the sense that I have literally met people who had no idea slavery exists today or existed in other parts of the world. In one of Thomas Sowell’s books he gives a good summary of world slavery.
I get the bad blood but I guess I have little patience with young black people who can’t shut up about slavery or act as if they suffered more than those who were actual slaves. But blm is a popular grift and you have people who are still dumb enough to take them seriously.

Always spay and neuter your pets or don't be surprised when you start having a lot of problems with strays.
Bob Barker was right!

Thanks for reminding me about the Lincoln video.
