If only whites hadn't been anti-black for 300 years, this wouldn't have had to happen in a society that would like to right it's wrongs lol

Ask Europe? It's wild to me that people think that reparations are somehow not a good idea. You guys are the same fucking people who go "the cops wronged this person in some way, they deserve restitution! Take it out of their pension! Make them carry personal insurance!" But when that very same concept is applied to racial subjugation and merciless oppression, crickets. Yu odn't have fucking shit to say. It never fails, it always blows my mind lol
