    The silver lining is white people owned them.

    I’m almost 100% certain no black person today would consider anything regarding slavery a silver lining, on a widespread level anyway.

    Slavery in chattel form from the early America days may be well over, but the effects of things that happened post-slavery and even during the latter parts of the 20th century are not.

    I don't believe anything I read or hear on the internet, tv, or radio. So don't tell me what I do or do not believe.

    Tried the link again, it's NOT paywalled. You didn't bother to click the link? How would you know it's paywalled? For chrissy sakes.

    I was speaking facetiously as a MAGA responder.

    I’m pretty stunned you made it anywhere near college at all, judging by some of the subpar posts you’ve made in this thread alone.

    Anyway, the whole backstory about that anthem was explained and posted in here a lot and you still are having a very hard time grasping the idea that the anthem is well over a century old and has almost always been considered the “black national anthem,” meaning this is not a new thing.

    How does any of this information negate or change what happened to black slaves in America? What about this makes stuff like the transatlantic slave trade better or not as bad? Is that supposed to be like a “gotcha” moment?

    Black peoples trust in a lot, for one. You’ll note that I also added “post-slavery” in my last post.

    Which never would have occurred if black people didn't initially capture and sell them, but you will never criticize black people even if they captured and sold slaves - somehow you will ultimately call it white supremacy.

    Pretty sure slavery existed in Europe at that time as well and even before that at some point.

    You only seem to want to blame certain people for slavery and not others - and the only people you want to blame are white people. PERIOD!

    How does slavery impact anyone today, give me examples. Then tell me how it's my fault and that I should wash the feet of blacks who were never slaves.

    Like J6, you guys are going to milk slavery for everything it's worth and only the woke bleeding hearts give a crap.

    So go to Europe and try to sell white guilt over there. And when I say sell, I mean sell, there's a lot of money to be made in Big Racism...at least over here there is.

    The left has turned everything is racist into an industry.

    It may be "old", but if you rub someone's face in it, it's no older than the moment you did that!

    Would you like to have your pristine 'wokester' face rubbed in a tune like "Bonnie Blue Flag" any less merely because it's "old"? Somehow, I doubt it, but perhaps that's because I lack your scholastic sensibilities...? ;)

    This isn’t about what you or other people here consider valid. It’s not about what you think or how you feel. Never was.

    Okay then, I’ll pack my bags tomorrow and head over there and set up shop. And I’ll find a way to come back a billionaire. I’ll even give you all updates on how I’m doing.

    A lot of you have turned bitch fits into a full time career so it evens out.

    Jokes on you as I’ve never heard “Bonnie Blue Flag.” Why do you ask, are you older than time itself?

    This isn’t about blaming or not blaming anyone, this is me asking what was the point of bringing up the first slave owner in America being black? So fcking what, that doesn’t suddenly make slavery less bad or get white people off the hook for openly engaging and profiting off of it just like black slavers did.

    You never heard of "Bonnie Blue Flag"? Hmm... on reflection, why doesn't THAT surprise me.... :roflol:

    Try YouTube. Even us 'ancient' people are capable of doing so simple as that.... :oldman:

    For a successful, moneymaking scam in Europe based on endless 'White-nationalist-guilt' try Germany first! The hyperliberal, radical morons over there love wallowing in it so much that the guilt-peddlers have trouble keeping up with demand! :nod:

    Oh so you CAN actually use Youtube or Google to search for something. If you only made that same effort for literally anything else in this thread…..
