Is that supposed to change anything? I'm physically trying not to pop off right now if only because I recognize your username-- but keeping it a buck? This kind of immediate-defensive, "well I never owned slaves" line, coupled with how quick you peddled it out, leads me to not believe you for a single motherfuckin second; because it sounds just like every other cracker in this godforsaken nation who can have their lineage traced back to slave owners.

You're patently untrustworthy, manifestly unserious, and honestly probably fucking dangerous regarding matters of liberation if you prioritize your papier-maché ego over the lived experience and frank fucking torture that leading a Black life entails; regardless of whether or not your hands or those of your ancestors were washed in that historical fountain of blood. I'd bet my left eye they didn't get involved back then either, the same way your words imply you won't get involved. After all, your folk 'never owned slaves', so it's not your problem in your purview.

tl;dr please, for once in your life, perform some honest self-crit.

The person you're responding to is not a Usonian, and their people have historically been victims of euro-amerikkkan aggression. Please be respectful to others here (rule 3) or we won't hesitate to issue temp bans.

Fine; consider it let go of then.
