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

@Patriot96 Oh, look. Another racist oversimplifying shit to justify slavery.

@LordShadowfire nope, cant justify slavery, but it existed long before America
@Patriot96 Well, I'm glad to see you at least saying you can't justify slavery, but you sure seem to be doing your best to justify the white folks who made it an institution in this country.

@LordShadowfire it was institutionalized by people other than whites.
The first slave owner in America was a black man.
White men were the first to end slavery.
Slavery still exists in the nations of northern Africa

@LordShadowfire my ancestors will still in Ireland being subjugated by the British. We didnt own slaves.

Correct. Their dominant tribesmen, as well as fellow tribesmen, hunted them and brought them to the ports to board Western ships whose crew avoided the jungle entirely due to rampant disease and sickness. Their own people sold them out.
