CNN: People for sale: Where lives are auctioned for $400

This, according to CNN, is the real deal. Many people in this country think whites are the only oppressive force in nature, well here you go, real slavery, real oppression, real human rights abuses.

When people in this country think about how fortunate they are to not be sold as slaves or tolerate the abuse these people have to tolerate, then maybe they won't take a knee, maybe they won't see our anthem and flag as symbols of racism, and maybe they'll stop complaining about how bad this country is and threaten to move out because a president they don't like says mean things.

When you see reports like this and the human suffering going on in this day and age, it's kind of ridiculous to lose control of yourself when you see a noose or a banana peel in a tree. What gave rise to those thoughts are long gone and only perpetuated by race hustlers trying to further their own cause.

Think about this story the next time someone wants to criticize how people in this country claim to be perpetual victims of race superiority. The people in this story would gladly trade places with them.

 

White SJWs are never going to be brave enough to take on Islam, even if Islam wasn't currently the voting bloc they were trying to woo (and it is).

 

but muh feeeeelingz

 

Idk. The 13th Amendment allows for slavery right here in America. Putting millions of people in jail for BS crimes and giving them long sentences for them is oppressive. America also has problems with human trafficking.

 

Just to clarify ... these 'millions' being put in jail are actually committing crimes, yes? or are they wrongful convictions?

 

I'm just going to take some time to laugh:

That moment you realize the right doesn't have that many large investigative powerhouse outlets, and most of your sources and data come from "teh fake media".

 

Very sad that Libya probably won't recover......

 

Yeah, I'm not going to take a disgusting practice and use it to make political jabs. It's heartbreaking to hear about and I hope something can be done about it.

 

I did say BS crimes. Examples of BS crimes include possession of marijuana and other types of drugs.

 

Your personal opinion of the merits of these laws is quite beside the point. Are these 'millions' breaking laws, or are they not?

And can you qualify just how such laws (which apply to all, regardless of colour or creed) can possibly be discriminatory?

 

RW logic: Racism in America can't exist if someone else has it worse.
Also
CNN is fake news until I like what they're reporting

 

Do you dismiss this device for correction of unproductive self-indulgence?

Authority figures and mentors have used it, universally, since Moses was a boy. It's not a device used to deny whatever the grievance is, it's used to remind the person engaging in the self-indulgence that it is, in comparison, self-indulgence.

It serves no human being (ever) to validate and enable every passing dissatisfaction. To do so creates monsters. Further, many dissatisfactions are quite valid, but have limited use or potential productive value, and some are downright counter-productive and harmful to engage. All of us benefit from constant checking and balancing (which is where comparison comes in handy) if we expect to remain a) sane, and b) productive.

 

Your rebuttal is irrelevant. The OP is talking about oppression. If the government decides to make criminals out of certain people by what they do, they'll be criminals. If a BS law was passed to make gun ownership illegal, for example, then gun owners become criminals overnight. They really shouldn't be criminals because this country is founded on certain liberties and the ability to enforce those liberties. The BS law(s) and its enforcement is what makes it oppressive.

 

"Be grateful you only experience racism here and not slavery like in other places."

At least Libya is honest and upfront about its bullshit.

 

So this is really about some people not liking some laws, because such laws target stuff they like doing.

 

???? Wtf?? Our country practices slavery LEGALLY. Its written in one of the damn Amendments. We have BS laws so you can round up enough non-violent slaves to do work. I mentioned 13th Amendment and I spoke on the unconstitutional BS laws. Just read Wtf I wrote and not what you want to read. You kill me with your damn games man.

 

NO.. Libya has descended into hell.. Read the enlightened Libyan Constitution under King Idris that was in force from 1951 to 1970 when Gadaffi threw it out.

 

Felons lose their civil rights while they are in prison. Is THAT your issue?

 

My point is Libya has never been the beacon of human rights and freedom known throughout the world, like we have.

We as Americans, on the other hand, say one thing and then do another.

 

^ Some good points here.

 

They lose their civil rights after being convicted of unconstitutional BS laws. This is the problem. We have a higher prisoner rate than Communist Cuba because we are enforcing unconstitutional laws.

 

Really. Have you been incarcerated?

 

No. ????????????

 

Laughing about slavery. Why am I not surprised.

 

The folks in Libya must not be aware that Colin Kaepernick is kneeling to end oppression.........and most of the Confederate monuments have been destroyed......
