Sometimes it seems Black people want ALL white people to be...

1850s Plantation owners so they can have an enemy.

But they aren’t slaves and most white people ARENT wealthy and never owned any slaves and nobody alive today even knew anyone who even knew anyone who did.

That’s what they want, to be enslaved on a plantation again. Beaten, starved, and worked to death. Treated like property with no rights and labored to death in the fields. Yeah, this is what they want. You completely nailed it.

@DarkHeaven nope you did.

They want to be taken care of with no responsibility because Democrats told them it was racist to expect them to compete in society...

Funny that’s who owned slaves.
@GardenSage No the Dixiecrats are all in the Republican Party now. I get you are young but that’s no excuse to not know your history.

@DarkHeaven show me any moment in history where the parties switched ?

The core beliefs still remain.
Conservatives favor free market, financial independence, personal independence and self accountability..

It was under this premise that slaves were freed
@GardenSage
The States' Rights Democratic Party (usually called the Dixiecrats) was a short-lived segregationist political party in the United States. It originated in 1948 as a breakaway faction of the Democratic Party determined to protect states' rights to legislate racial segregation from what its members regarded as an oppressive federal government.[1] Supporters assumed control of the state Democratic parties in part or in full in several Southern states. The Party opposed racial integration and wanted to retain Jim Crow laws and white supremacy in the face of possible federal intervention. Its members were referred to as "Dixiecrats", a portmanteau of "Dixie", referring to the Southern United States, and "Democrat".

Who wrote that? Lol... that’s utterly ridiculous. I live in the south and vote conservatively and I don’t identify at all with this.
@GardenSage I don’t care about politics at all. I hate the news and can’t stand either party, so I have no dog in this fight but I do know my history. The Dixiecrats were the conservative arm of the Democratic Party that mergerd with the Democrats and then fled to the Republican Party as fiscal conservatives were purged from the socialist leanings of the Democrats.

@DarkHeaven well that’s the OPPOSITE of republicans today... most high profile republicans are fiscally LIBERAL.. ie george w Bush,
GardenSage · 36-40, M
@DarkHeaven so show me who these Dixiecrats were and when did they switch parties
@GardenSage Yeah. Bush Jr was last time I really followed politics and socially he was fine but he was very fiscally liberal for a Republican.
@GardenSage I’m taking zero stand on politics as I said before I cannot stand either party at all but the issue of Racism is a lot more complicated than just a left/right thing. That’s all I’m saying. 🖤

@GardenSage Jesus dude. Do your own research. I seriously don’t fucking care anymore but I know there is not a single black person on the fucking planet that wishes he was a god damned slave again.

@DarkHeaven I already have done it... there isn’t anyone... which is why I asked you...
@GardenSage ✌️
GardenSage · 36-40, M
@DarkHeaven and we are talking a much more subtle form of slavery here that subjects all races “equally” to use a hot button word...

I hope you don’t think i think anyone wants to be slaves..
That’s why I made the post, ya know?
@GardenSage I think I reject all “theys.” When a person uses “they” which tries to separate me from my beautiful African American ex-girlfriend, I am already put off a bit. I would suggest when making your point in the future saying what we should build and what is happening to us. We are one human race and “they” are not truly “theys.” I can't stand the blame game on either side and the “theys” just perpetuate that.

@DarkHeaven that’s a semantic nightmare. Seems exhausting
GardenSage · 36-40, M
I’ll note your suggestion and counter you one... let’s not get offended over grammar when nobody uses correct grammar all the time, as much as they may try..@DarkHeaven
@GardenSage It’s important as it changes your line of thinking. They creates a them and then it becomes their problem. Us and we creates a togetherness and shared ownership of the problem. Laziness should not be an excuse to stagnate change.
@GardenSage Fair point. ✌️
