American racists, do you feel jealousy about UK racists?

Firstly I have to say racism is very bad and there is no excuse for it and you should all just stop it. But in America it is different to Britain.

In America a bunch of people who were in Africa who were minding their own business were kidnapped and relocated against their will and forced to work crap jobs in farms. They weren't invited. I know about this stuff because I have a friend who's in uni.

In the UK the situation was different.

Like I said, they are both wrong, all racism is wrong but American racists have to acknowledge that they kidnapped a bunch of people and then when slavery ended, ONLY THE SLAVE OWNERS GOT Reparations (my friend told me).

It's very shameful

Just wait for the uninformed guys bleating that black people sold slaves, and what about the Romans...?
Oops, too late.....

@Richard65 Yep. The right wing media bubble’s talking points get dispersed quite effectively.

@specman you keep commenting on these posts, but it's clear that you and some others who also comment have a pretty poor understanding of the history you mention. I doubt any of you have read a history book since school.

@Richard65 are you saying that it wasn’t black people who kidnapped them? The first slave owner was black? Just what are you saying?

@specman see, you're just displaying your ignorance.

Here's a simple question: are you familiar with the Enlightenment and what relevance the subject has to the history of slavery? If you don't, then it's pointless me discussing the topic with someone who lacks even a basic understanding of context.

@Richard65 are you denying what is in my last comment?
