A group of republicans are pushing legislation that would ban federal funding for local reparations

my god this is embarrassing

Some of y'all still don't understand that a lot of these “no tangibles, no vote,” “reparations or bust,” etc. individuals were never really serious about these matters in the first place; they were likely closeted Trumpers/MAGA supporters looking to create apathy.

They're not stupid, and this news isn't a revelation or a “moment of truth” to them as they knew better than you and I that those stances had a 1 in 1000 percent chance of gaining legitimate traction, especially in this current state of politics where race-based policies are under attack by conservatives. They just used these matters to grandstand, virtue signal, and create diversions during election season, in other words, it's a good emotional talking point to sway opinions.

Notice how since that's passed, all that huffing and puffing about tangibles/reparations disappeared, as well as some of the ones that mysteriously vanished after backing those sentiments, but don't worry, the shtick will be back in full swing by midterms, and onwards.

Meanwhile, Florida Seminole Tribe building casinos, and locking in $128K PER PERSON annually, and to be a member you have to have 1/4 Florida Seminole blood. They are federally recognized. Other tribes have casinos, and use the money to fund education, and community resources. FBA should have been declared federal status decades ago.

i dont see the usual bothsiders in here

Bothsiders don't comment in threads like this, only threads against Democrats.

Yet they be the main ones doin Massa’s work spreading negativity in positive Pan African threads to derail Black unity.

Who cares about that mans appearance. What do you think about republicans trying to block local reparations?

The KEY WORD IN YOUR QUESTION IS TRYING

In California, the Democrats already Blocked our Reparations....The Republicans are following the Democrats playbook on denying cash payments for Freedman being Enslaved in the United States of America:






Bothsides are the same

You are moron and I'm tired of you idiots.

The Republicans want to ban reparations that's different than the Dems failing to pass it during the first go around.

Grow up.

Exponentially further from reparations now compared to 2012.

People worrying about reparations when they need to be worrying about opportunity being taken away. Trump has basically annihilated education for Black folks and it’s only been two months.

 

[OperationNumbNutts]

Let's be 100. These reparations task forces are bureaucratic teams paid to study what already known and make recommendations that go nowhere. It's dems lazy way of saying we are doing something. In this case, republicans are giving DC a legal fyck you. This has no bearing on regular people.

Yeah we might have been better off calling ourselves some kind of alien tribe that whites have to have treaties with.
