    If you are supporting Gov DeSantis Bill or not outraged by the taking of Black heores from a classroom, then you are supporting such actions.


    LOL, most liberals are patriots, they just are not the definition of a patriot that you think it is. However, I think you are getting confused between nationalism and patriotism, and there is a difference. Pepo;e like you are nationalists, not patriots while liberals are patriots and not nationalists. Get it now?


    No, I don't, but that does not negate the ugly history that needs to be taught though. Those that fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it. Hence, why it should be taught. In Germany, they teach about the holocaust. Does that mean every German feels a responsibility to those events? No it does not. So why are some white people so thin-skinned by their own choices to be affronted when history like this is taught? You may want to answer that question rhetorically.


    Since we are discussing here, you means you, nothing more, nothing less.

    They bought the mineral rights. If whites weren’t in Africa they would have sold the diamonds they found for cows and sheep

    Very true. Sadly, it may be a basic component of what we call "civilization". Its forms vary widely though. Few were ever as harsh as that practiced in the Antebellum South

    Would it be less barbaric than to allow slaves and have no legal recognition of it? The society knows it, but pretends it's not what it is?
    If you don't acknowledge something but just allow it, how is that better?
    Slavery is still present and allowed in at least 15 nations around the world. Few people show much concern about that.
    Often called "human trafficking" in many nations. I see it's present in Botswana today, but considered improving.
    Last I read, Africa had the most in slavery.
    In America, it's different. We have people who were never slaves doing all they can to shame those who were never slave owners because slavery once existed here... and many of them are doing so with the hopes of profiting from it.
    Keeping racism alive seems far more important to black people than whites.

    De beers bought the rights. They didn’t go in and just take it. Just cause de beers was and is controlled by whites doesn’t make them guilty of some kind of racial diamond theft.

    ukraine has an extensive slave network, even trafficking babies across europe, yet your elected government is sending ukraine billions. saudi arabia has draconian laws regarding females but your elected government is sending them billions. america is helping build these slave economies but you want to whine to me about some fake accounts of slavery in africa.

    You won’t go into great detail why? And there are plenty of poor whites in America without SUV’s. You’re proving to have quite a bigoted point of view. Poor whites do exist. Race in America doesn’t guarantee wealth in America.

    Secondly who are you to tell him he can’t discuss Arabs on this forum? This forum has plenty of debates about areas outside of America and outside of their interests. This place is not dedicated to American debate and there is no rule saying we can not. Quite the high horse bigotry rides on…

    You said that whites and the diamond mines now have racism. We’re not talking historical context. You brought it up as in present day context.

    Diamonds were found in Africa in 1860’s de beers bought its first mine in the 1870’s so if you are suggesting their purchase was racist intent then explain it rather than ducking it

    Who do you think they paid for the rights? The Zulu? The De Beers brothers found the diamonds on the own farm. They sold the mine to others when they couldn't keep people away during the diamond rush which they had created. The others named the mines after the de Beers brothers. In the end Cecil Rhodes picked up one mine after the other and created the De Beers Mining Company. Many of the mines were acquired by pump & dump stock manipulation. Clever fella, but no one paid the locals anything for the mines

    Doesn’t change the fact that I am a proud white male. Religion may work on you but I don’t need it to feel comfortable in my skin

    They bought the property for the mines. They paid for the local laborers. They didn’t steal a dang thing

    No. DeBeers set up their farm on land which they simply claimed as their own, and later diamonds were found on it. They paid no one for the farm.
