    Even with a lobotomy i wouldnt come up with such braindead takes as “black people benefited from slavery”. As sane as saying homeless people benefit from fentanyl addiction or that african people benefit from hunger.

      It’s white man’s burden BS slipping back in, where people (like Robert E. Lee) would say “We don’t want to enslave these people, it’s just our duty to civilize them.”

      I assume it’s some kind of mechanism for maintaining their cognitive dissonance.

      Homeless people should clearly all be given cocaine so that they are less hungry. I mean c’mon!

          A ‘pure’ ethnostate wouldn’t have people to do the actual work. A lot of the right wing wants a caste-style system in reality, and for women and ‘those people’ to stay in ‘their place’ within it.
