President Joe Biden - Kamala Harris Administration

[Weezer]

Yea, That only works if no one benefits from their ancestors.

Wrong. I can't control what my ancestors did. I control what I do. Times and people change, luther. Your way of thinking discounts that. If people are held accountable for actions of their mythical ancestors, what reason do they have to strive to be better?

Of course you can't control what your ancestors did and you deserve no credit or blame for what they did, but their actions sure as hell help determine what advantages or disadvantages you will face. That's sort of the point.

One wonders if Joe even knows how to read that piece of paper w/small print?
He knows how to read a big jumbo tron teleprompter that's 6 feet away.

It is the same BS someone has been writing for him for a couple of months. He looked down almost the entire time. Just not genuine.

How far back should we go?

Still getting told who to call in the media.

 

[BreatheUT]

Prescripted questions. He's looking on a cheat sheet for reporters to call on. He is still struggling.

So at what point does a black person get to take advantage of that? Or do you think it fair that someone like LeFlop James should actually be paying back in to the system because had his ancestors (allegedly) not been slaves, he'd be stealing oil in Nigeria or some other west Africa **** hole.

That's true of everyone around the world, regardless of race or ethnicity. I wasn't born a Rockefeller or a Kennedy or into any other influential, rich family. As far as I know, my ancestors were poor white people. Should I be pissed I wasn't born with that advantage of wealth and status?

That kind of thinking leads to everyone wearing the same clothes and driving the same vehicle. LCD

I'm gonna drive to Martha's Vineyard and demand reparations from the Kennedy clan. Those bastards owe me something for being successful.

Yes, I know it's an island.

Should be eventful

11 generations, but on a decreasing scale of relevance.

I don't know that you should be pissed, maybe a little disappointed.
But if 70% of the population was a Rockefeller, Kennedy, or Vanderbilt and they got unfair advantages that you didn't for that one simple fact; I would expect you to be a little pissed.

Who was your 11 generation family members?

 

[luthervol]

Who was your 11 generation family members?

Not a clue.

It's somewhat amusing that I have a problem going back more than 4 generations on one side of my family (with census records, some written documents, cemetery records, etc) - we're definitely talking post civil war; and supposedly other people know their ancestors were slaves?

This is true of everyone of every race in earth

Yes, we know.

Siap. But literally everyone benefits from their ancestors. Or else they wouldnt be here. Have any positive attributes, be anywhere close to who they are.

 

[BreatheUT]

Yes, we know.

Now the question is he just a troll or that nutty?

Absolutely. You would never hear me say otherwise/
