Reparations are the new abortion. Rep. Cori Bush is proposing $14-trillion in payments, equal to the entire cost of the ‘pandemic’, and half of the increasing national debt. Viral videos show dark-skinned citizens demanding payments between $5 and $200 million for historical slavery. Some suggest that without these payments they will not be voting for Democrats. What a wonderful opportunity for Democrats to pay lip service to dark-skinned communities, disregarding those they offend with such a discriminatory talking point, by buying the support of black people without ever seriously making widespread payments. Buzzwords like reparations, lynching, slavery, segregation, ‘slaves built America’, etc. fill the mouths of all manner of Americans ignorant of history. Reparations were paid for with the lives of countless soldiers during the Civil War and in other ways after the war, but they were restricted by Democrats and President Lincoln who in favor of preserving only Union support. Lynchings primarily targeted whites prior to the Civil War, only after targeting blacks who had been freed - even then, thousands of whites were still lynched for registering their fellow man to vote. Slavery is a universally acknowledge part of all human history, and racial slavery was created in the midst of slavery being abolition in the newly formed United States. Segregation was dominant in post-civil-war politics only to protect whites from blacks, as the idea was presented. Even the U.S. Constitution, which is called racist, was rewritten by the Confederacy to preserve race-based slavery. Only a small percent of the Southern economy was even driven by cotton, and most of that was picked by poor whites. Dark-skinned Americans also owned plenty of slaves or were wealthy and ran businesses, while many light-skinned slave owners freed their slaves and assisted them in their new living situations by providing them with land and resources.
