Americas first black billionaire calls for reparations and wants his cut too

[SonOfSun]

The minute they pass reparations I suggest we all "identify as black".

Force them to legally define it. The resulting shitstorm will be glorius.

I have to go to the DMV in a few months. I think I need to let them know about the misprint on my license. I'm really a 8 foot tall Asian that was born in 1902... Because I "identify" that way.

This "I identify as X" stuff is nonsense.

Given that willing identity as black would grant reparations this can only be done by direct proof of being a descendent of slavery.

That means that any non-descendent blacks—which I imagine are somewhere in the millions (immigration from Africa, South America, etc, in the past 150 years) will get nothing. That will fly like a lead balloon. So then they’ll have to go back to either self certification of race or pigment tests. What a mess it would be.

At least one of the DNA ancestry services lists every person as 1% African heritage in some kind of effort to limit groups using it to prove "pure blood". Sounds like an easy way to prove one is eligible for free money.

Reparations implies that we are responsible for removing them from their homes and forcing them to come live in America.

So, to make reparations for our bad behavior, any monies will be used to return the person to Africa immediately. I doubt there will be any left over money after that, but at least they'd be back home.



Right?

Even that implies that they would be better off if their ancestors had remained in Africa.

The people who's ancestors *did* remain in Africa have determined that was a lie...


Well, maybe not. The ones that did stay may be living with obscene levels of poverty and in a constant state of war (for some), but they aren't afflicted with democrats trying to "help" them.

The left has been EXTREMELY successful in stoking the flames of racism to keep AMERICANS divided.

The simple minded keep falling forbthe same old tricks.

And it gets people out to vote. I don’t necessarily credit the democrats with this more the media. They must be working together because this is all I see in the media. Racism, racist.

They are definitely working for the same puppet masters.
