    There's a difference between being "woke" and "awake", some of ya'll need to learn that. Oh and on slavery, you guys sure do bring it up often but NEVER bring up WHO they bought the slaves from.
    I'll give you a hint, NOT WHITE

    You are projecting
    false. It’s ok to be white. Period. Your statement applies to all races equally. It’s racist to suggest otherwise.

    Which means my comment wasnt racist because it was aimed at my race.

    and where do you think the Portuguese got the slaves from? For over 200 years, powerful kings in what is now the country of Benin (WHICH IS IN AFRICA) captured and sold slaves to Portuguese, French and British merchants.
    None of this justifies slavery by the way, but still, this part of the history of slavery is conveniently ignored. If you wanna talk history, ALL sides of that history should be addressed. History should not be SELECTIVE

    Only White people put a man on the Moon.

    And the two most significant discoveries of the 20th C. were made by racists: transistors and DNA.

    The dutch ennglish and spanish purchased their captives from portuguese merchants operating in the interior. Are you saying these merchants were black?

    It would be difficult to name a culture that never had slaves.

    It would be difficult to name more than one culture that practiced race based chattel slavery

    This might be the reason why DJT colored his face.
    He obviously hates his skin, which is extremely pale. :)

    Would you say all black people are violent criminals because as a race they are a statistical anomaly of violent crime? You shouldn’t, because that’s stupid.

    it’s just as stupid to try and hold white people accountable for things they aren’t participating in.

    Yes, through most of history it was based on tribe or warring groups.
    Of course through most of history nobody had much contact with other races.

    I find generic cola works just fine with bourbons, Tennessee and Kentucky whiskies, and rums. Haven't bought a Coke product for YEARS. :alcoholic:

    It is not doing any good and may be harming some but it is not killing anything.
