Reparations is a topic of intellectual masturbation. A waste of time and energy.

On a personal level I'm not trying to cash in on my ancestors pain, the shit is macabre. I can't put a price tag on what they went through. You can't buy humanity and no amount of money changes what happened.

It's not about just you though and why not

They have yet to even acknowledge any wrong doing on top of white washing and rewriting history in the books

It provided them with a 450+ years head start and left us in an impossible position to catch up

Part of helping to close that gap is paying what's owed but who's going to willingly give up power...gotta demand it, if people wanna look at is as profiting off the abuse and inhumane treatment of our ancestors, so be it

I don't think you can put a price on the suffering of our ancestors

What's this mean though

You can't put a price on the holocaust victims' suffering but they paid up

Don't ever compare the holocaust to the enslavement, kidnapping and transportation of west Africans

Who continue today to be the target of systemic oppression

It's not even apples oranges ,that's apples and onions

And if your black, shame on you for comparing 14 years to 400+ years
 
I don't think he was comparing the 2 situations.

I don't want to not be compensated because you can't put a price on the 400+ of suffering

Not to be capin' for Jews, but they did spend most of their history being oppressed, disenfranchised, living in ghettos, subjected to forced relocation, being forced to renounce their religion under the penalty of torture and death, and enduring periodic pogroms in Europe.

Let me ask you something what was the economic and political benefit for group of people to convert to a religion that is economically and politically disenfranchised. Subjected to move at a moments notice when the local monarch decided to tell them they had to raise up. Having some other muthafuckas torture you into giving up your faith. Being forced live in extremely unsanitary conditions behind a wall, and having cats on horses run through your village and killing everything and everybody in site? On top of being constantly of accused of killing the messiah of the religion of the dominate society. Because your great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandchildren will five hundred years later will have the entertainment, financial, legal game on lock. In the meanwhile, you're hella stravin' and getting you ass hella kicked? Really bruh? Dudes have to get off of this Europeans Jews aren't Jews bullshit, because for the most of the history of European Jewry, unless your last name was Rothschild, there was absolutely no benefit to being a Jew.
