That was one of the most cringey setups of a joke I heard in a long time....
And who claps for reparations as a grown man?

Since you want to reference history, do you know what happened when the 1964 Civil rights bill was signed into law? Democrats lost all political power in the South and never got it back. The voter base and some elected officials completely shifted to the Republican party. Its one of the most notorious shifts of power in political history.there were black people saying similar shyt during slavery, reconstruction and jim crow. the sentiment behind your words isn’t new, your pessimism about our prospects for liberation felt and expressed by many black men and women over the centuries we’ve been here.
ok let's take california numbers. California said 800 Billion, and there are not a lot of black people in Cali. So you are looking at Multi-trillions of reparation money. No polititian is going to vote for that. Where are you going to get the money from. Economically, it will kill the US economy. Plus you think covid scams where bad....the level of scamming would be epic. Financial reparations will never happen. You think hispanics are gonna go for it? Asians? White people? Arabs? Its good to talk about, but no one is actually willing to pay for it.
Now if you were talking about free or reduced college, low/no income tax, etc. Things like that might be doable. But any kind of payout, wont' actually happen.
They doing that now and we ain’t got it. At least we will be able to grow our own food, build our own communities and manufacture shyt.All for reparations but what if we get it and these demons increase the cost on everything?
