whats this new wave of anti Harriet Tubman?

[RadaMillz]

the last few years I noticed a pattern of people talking negative about Harriet Tubman and some even denying she existed
and honestly I'm kinda dumbfounded as it makes no sense

idk, I think it started with yt conservatives being pissed about Andrew Jackson being replaced by her
then black conservatives and grifters followed suit like Kanye West with character assassination
then social media conspiracist with 'there's no record of her ever existing'

now I am seeing middle aged brehs saying 'she wasn't sh!t, she was a union spy'

 

[RickyDiBiase]

Just call them stupid to their face like I have for years breh

If its some online shyt go above and beyond and get nasty with it. don’t argue facts with people who have no sense of pride.

The internet done rotted people's brains, breh. Alot of that shyt happens on here. But this just the tip of the iceberg. Wait til you see what bullshyt is going to be spread in the next few years. Anti-intellectualism is in full effect and sadly Black people are one of it's most prominent prey.

 

[3rdWorld]

It's part of a growing but age old trend of erasing and diminishing Black historical figures, and events.

I said years ago on here that if Harriet were alive today, the same people that went hard over that movie would be calling her a "fleer" and all type of shyt. There are Black Canadians today cause of what she did. Same goes for Muhammed Ali, he would've been a "Pannie"

Who cares she'll be on a $20 bill near you soon enough so they can keep on hating

 

[ReasonableMatic]

Over the last couple years I’ve seen Black ppl

Slander Harriet Tubman,
Slander Martin Luther King
Slander Marcus Garvey
Say the trans-Atlantic Slavetrade wasn’t real
Defend conservatism

Nothing surprises me anymore.

We’re in the era of the LOST NIKKA.

Dumbasses will say anything to trend on social media.

I personally am more worried about the romanticising of the Black community under segregation, despite me being pro Black economic independence and not looking for integration as any magical solution.

 

[BaggerofTea]

We are going to have to address this black c00ning shyt.

Eventually it will come to ahead.

You can have a race where majority of your people are self loathing self hating ingrates and expect to survive. It's not feasible

It’s worse when slavery is denied. How can you fix your lips to say slavery ever happened??

I think much of it comes down to self hatred.

Really no other explanation that passes muster.

No other group of people on the planet would romanticize the hellish past struggles that our ancestors went through.
