Do you know how fucking terrible a human has to be to make me root for that sack of shit Ben Shapiro? Pretty terrible.

"#Conservative commentator #CandaceOwens sharply criticized #BenShapiro in a recent #podcast episode, responding to his remarks at #TurningPointUSA’s #AmericaFest conference where he condemned her for spreading #conspiracytheories.

#Owens, in profane language, dismissed #Shapiro and referenced historical #antisemitic #tropes, including claims about the #Talmud and #Jewish involvement in the Atlantic #slavetrade. She held up a copy of “Der Talmudjude” (“The Talmud #Jew”), an 1871 book by #AugustRohling, a 19th-century #Catholic #priest whose work has been widely discredited as relying on mistranslations, selective quotations and fabrications to portray #Judaism as hostile toward non-#Jews."

We don't hate #England enough.

It's basically the #USA of #Europe. A whole country built on some of the worst atrocities in human history.

Literally created the #USA and #Israel, built its #wealth on forced #labor and #land theft, and is turning full #fascist now even under #Labour.

#Enclosures of the #commons, the #Atlantic #SlaveTrade, #financing the US #GildedAge #RobberBarons, the #Bengal famine, the #BalfourDeclaration, #TERFIsland... all England.

A quotation from Daniel Webster

At the moment when God in his mercy has blessed the Christian world with a universal peace, there is reason to fear, that, to the disgrace of the Christian name and character, new efforts are making for the extension of this [slave] trade by subjects and citizens of Christian states, in whose hearts there dwell no sentiments of humanity or of justice, and over whom neither the fear of God nor the fear of man exercises a control. In the sight of our law, the African slave-trader is a pirate and a felon; and in the sight of Heaven, an offender beyond the ordinary depth of human guilt.

Daniel Webster (1782-1852) American statesman, lawyer, orator
Speech (1820-12-22), “First Settlement of New England,” Plymouth, Massachusetts

You mean they want reparations for the time after their kings sold so many Africans away that Europeans saw the weakened state they were in and started to take advantage? 🤔Get the entire fck!

The West African country of Benin is granting citizenship to descendants of enslaved people in an effort to attract the Black diaspora, acknowledge its own role in the slave trade, and promote tourism. “By legally recognizing these children of Africa, Benin is healing a historical wound. It is an act of justice, but also one of belonging and hope,” Justice Minister Yvon Détchénou said at a ceremony in the city of Cotonou during which U.S. singer Ciara received her citizenship. Here's more from @AssociatedPress.

Читаю, как несколько богатых стран повышают свою недоступность для бежен:ок, конечно же называя страждущих ксенофобным (правым) словосочетанием «н. м.». И одновременно придумывают взаимообмен бежен:ками «по схеме один за одного». Вот это не траффикинг и никакая не работорговля, просто бартер людьми, которых мы для начала перестанем называть людьми. bbc.com/russian/articles/cd78l (статья анонимная) #racism #refugees #slavetrade #humanbarter #trafficking #properslavetrade

A must read article about Elihu Yale, the most prominent benefactor of Yale university. It's no surprise that the ultra racist JD Vance is one of the graduates.

"Taking place 190 years ago, the Malê Revolt in Bahia, led by African Muslim slaves, shook Brazil's foundations and echoed global fears of a new Haiti."

Reasonable people: The African slave trade was bad.

Racists: But black Africans benefited too! In fact, they were the ones who captured and sold the slaves! Why don't you complain about them‽

Benin: As the primary beneficiary of the slave trade, we are actively seeking to make amends and provide reparations for the descendants of slaves.
