Everytime I have pointed out that there were black people who owned slaves or that African kingdoms enslaved people as well and are the beginning of the chain they just say I am deflecting. I then try to say that I'm not denying slavery happened or that it was a brutal practice but I think it is a bad thing to act like the UK and America are the only countries to ever own slaves and ignore the work they did to free slaves (UK especially). Also interesting how they don't seem to care about modern day slaves all over the world because harping on slavery that ended a long time ago pays very well.
The one that always annoys me is that the "Cotton Skyscrapers" (the semi-official name for the whole "America built on slavery" thing) idea has been thoroughly disproven by actual data and historical fact. Just like in every other instance, slavery is/was a drag on the economy, and the US was an economic backwater while it was practiced. It wasnt until it had been abolished and the effects of the Civil War overcome that the US became the industrial juggernaut it was/is.
Like always, it is that they hate America and think they found a wedge issue. When instead, from personal experience, it is only serving to undo any good will many normies had toward Black people and unite Hispanics, Asians, and Whites in an idea of "Fuck the Blacks."
And I hate it, but at this point it is a lot of Black people themselves who are perpetuating it, so what do they expect me to do?
I agree with you, and I predicted this a long time ago that people are going to get tired of blacks (hate to say this since I'm black as well but I can't ignore the facts) and I think the whole "summer of love" really accelerated it. I get called a sellout for simply pointing out facts or asking these people why they don't move to a non-white paradise of their choosing. Crazy times my friend.
I had an argument with my dad about how slavery has been promoted as more brutal than it was. He started going on about how it would make slavery seem okay otherwise and hos it sounded like i was defending it. I shut him up by asking if he'd be fine as a slave if he were treated nice because I see slavery itself as a problem rather than the conditions or who did it or it was done to.
Yea I mean there are all kinds of stories of masters Fromm very cruel to very kind. My gg grandfather got a few acres of land after slavery from his former master. Granted he was the illegitimate son of the master so I guess that doesn’t count. I do remember in his book Booker T mentions that when the son of his former master got sick the former slaves gathered money to pay for his treatment.
But I feel the black people today who constantly talk about slavery must want to be oppressed
