I agree with that and it is a fact. My question is why can you only argue for your masters. Why can't you apportion blame in a balanced way?

We all know the level of corruption and manipulation the west exercises up till today in Africa. Why do you defend them one hundred per cent and only accuse us? Are you being paid, HN?
I really don’t understand the guy. I wonder if they are being paid to defend rubbish on behalf of a few vile white people. Because I don’t understand how a black man would 100% blame his black forefathers for slavery and then dance azonto to his masters.

It’s shocking.

True. Not all tribes. This is your source

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduction_of_Lagos

My question is why people who were forced to end slave trade asking for reparations?
History as written by the Victors.

The story of this bombardment of lagos does not make any sense.

1. How did the Oba command soldiers with muskets? Oba's warriors used machetes

2. The biggest slave port in Lagos is far away in badagry. So how is it that it is not the Oba of Badagry that was bombarded.

3. Please slave trade is a trade. Who was the Oba trading with? Europeans. Why is the other patty in the trade not mentioned?.

4. Slaves were also taken from other parts of Nigeria, especially Benin and Rivers sides. So I want to know how is it that the whole Nigeria refused to stop slave trade according to you. Many tribes didn't even get involved in slave trade

This guy shared his interaction with MAGA on his page and I must say it resonates with the kind of things you see on this thread.

It’s projection combined with deep amorality . There’s no internal moral compass. Rules only exist as obstacles to be overcome. It’s difficult for a sensible person to fathom. Take something like slavery for example. A normal person finds it abhorrent because they do the empathic introspection and think, “that’s horrifying, I’d never want to be a slave, it should be eradicated from society”.

MAGA thinks, “oh that’s horrifying, I’d never want to be a slave, I NEED TO MAKE SURE I’M ALWAYS THE MASTER”.

Because all rules are external. They have no internal guidance and that’s why they’re so easy to manipulate.

P.A
I knew MAGA had some sort of pathological mental issue, but the other day I had an encounter with two in the wild and it was bone-chilling. Here's the story:

I was eating lunch alone after a hike here in California. I sat at the bar to avoid the wait. Two people sat next to me and they struck up a conversation. They said they were from South Carolina and they were visiting national parks. Because of a negative interaction they had that day they asked why so many Californians hate maga. I told them a few reasons, including the recent DOJ directive by Trump telling law enforcement agencies to actively investigate Americans who don't support "christian values" and "traditional families" as potential terrorists. What they said next was incredibly eye-opening. They said, "That's how we felt when Biden targeted us".

I couldn't believe what I was hearing. I told them that Biden HAD NEVER targeted people in that way. They swore he did. I asked them to produce evidence of this and the husband in the duo said "He put Roger Stone in jail". I said that Roger Stone was investigated, charged, prosecuted, tried, and convicted on specific, established, statutes. I then said that anyone who breaks the law should go through that process, but not having certain "values" isn't a crime. They followed it up by saying that the Jan 6 insurrectionists were "regular Americans held for their political beliefs" ... I countered that they were held for their ACTIONS not their BELIEFS and they were investigated based on their actions, not that their beliefs were investigated to motivate charges against them. They COULD NOT UNDERSTAND the difference. They then said Trump was doing a great job in Iran by hitting them before they hit us. It finally clicked.

Conservatives are wired to be afraid of a hypothetical scenario and respond by performing that scenario against their perceived antagonist FIRST. Everyone else... normal people... are programmed to respond to a hypothetical scenario by preventing the scenario from happening, not by DOING IT TO OTHERS FIRST.

For example, if they fear "the left" coming for their guns, instead of just writing laws to stop that from happening they want to TAKE THE LEFT'S GUNS. If they fear a country bombing us, they don't try to diplomatically defuse tensions, they BOMB THEM FIRST. If they fear being put in detention camps by atheists they build camps and round up atheists.

Is there a psychological term for this behavior? Because it's terrifying and too easy to manipulate. They are willing to accept any ludicrous permise and act it out on others. We're not getting out of this within my life time. It will take decades to remove this sad disease from America.

Oh, I should clarify. This wasn't directed at "you" as a person. It is to the deceitful and wicked spirit that's controlling you. Remember what Jesus said to Peter, his own friend and disciple?
Jesus was talking to Peter whom he assumed was being satanic. But it says a lot about you who has no control over yourself and assumes buda is not in control of themself.

You are a puppet so must think everyone is a puppet, and that's very said, especially when the Jesus you mentioned is supposed to empower you.

God
Do all the MAGA in this thread have severe mental issues?

Bemeruca if you want people to believe you are drafting your own posts you should tell Grok to "write it with a 9th grade vocabulary and make 40% of the post contain misspelled words and improper grammar similar to writing by someone whose first language is not English.".

How do you read my posts and say I am defending people when it is what you are actually doing? Why are you being dishonest?
Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by benalvino3: 2:47pm On Mar 28
bayelsaowei:
You’ve intentionally decided to lie by saying I haven’t condemned slavery in its entirety. See my previous post to Raumdeuter.

I have chosen to speak about the transatlantic slavery system as a case in point and it got you and other vassals triggered.

It is either you guys are being paid to defend nonsense or as usual you’re still slaves in real time to the white folks.

You heap all the blame on your ancestors and absolve those who demanded slaves and sustained one of the most sophisticated slave systems in human history.
I never said that; your post, which I clipped, said that. Your main focus is on the transatlantic slave while I am saying the UN resolution is one sided. Which you acknowledge by saying you will focus on TRANSATLANTIC but tomorrow you might focus on Arab.

I don't know what you people gain from dishonesty. Why the ME VS THEM mentality?

Why are you people angry that all parties are being held responsible?

I am still the one who is saying after the Brits fought for the freedom of slaves, they started colonialism which is another historic issues. Tomorrow you will knowing come out and say I supported it.

I can tell you both sides, positive and Negative, then analyze the overall impact if it was positive or negative, if it helped advance our civilization. I don't understand why you people mischaracterize someone just to make yourself look good in an argument.

I did not heap all the blame on my ancestors, I said my ancestors were part of it so why is Ghana coming to ask reparations for something they are also guilty of?

Lol....they sold humans for guns abi? So who now trained them to use guns against an army?

Possessing a gun is one thing, using it properly is another.

See this one shifting goal post. If they can use bows and arrows, they can figure out guns. It's easier to use. Even if they were trained, they still have agency. And it took the Brits to stop them from enslaving their own people.

You can be dishonesty. See raumdeuter first response to you
raumdeuter:
Slavery is the worst thing that happened to humanity, so why limit it to trans Atlantic, why not just every form of slavery whether Trans Saharan, within Africa, Ottoman, Asian slavery

In Short, every form of slavery should be condemned equally they are terrible

Today we still have slavery going on in many places especially in the middle east, There should be more effort to condemn and eradicate that
To you this is supporting white men, Are you serious?

I keep telling you it is not a popularity contest, everyone that took part is guilty but why is it the people who actually did the enslaving of your forefathers the ones asking for reparations and decided which version is worse?

So stop lying, I am only pushing back against the one sided narrative.

Oboy.. you’ve shown yourself finish… you’d rather quickly come to the rescue of your white gods rather than think and really address where you came from and what your forefathers went through.

Its not about rescue, lmao. You are not a racist so stop acting like one. You have this US vs THEM mentality and it's sad.

You are still making it a race thing when I am saying they should not Compartmentalize blame. People asking for reparation actually enslaved their forefathers. Why is that an issue? Asking for everyone to take responsibility is an issue?

No be something you agree with? Then why try to single out transatlantic slavery?

Tell us your truth.

The image is at Lagos, if you go there they will show you the bottles, umbrella and canons they sold your forefathers for. It's not the white man telling the stories, it is Nigerians telling the stories. Same with Ghana.

We should learn to take responsibility. History is bad, everyone did bad.

White men enslaved our ancestors
Arab enslaved some of our ancestors
Fellow Africans enslaved some of our ancestors

Why is your anger not directed towards ALL of them who enslaved our ancestors but only for a subset

Were those enslaved by Arabs and other Africans not suffering enough or deserving of your empathy ?

Why won’t they ask for reparations?

Do you know the impact of what the systems back then has subjected Africa into as at today?

Reparations is asked by Africans because

1. They did not control the global system—that was driven by European powers.
2. They did not create the transatlantic demand for enslaved labor.
3. They did not accumulate lasting global wealth from the trade. Some countries are still benefitting from wealth built from the intense transatlantic slavery.
4. Lasting inequalities was created and impacting on your black brothers and generations to come.

You think you can spread twisted truths here and get away with it.?
