Can you already see that "reparatory justice mechanisms" is not money, or do you need to self educate yourself further why there's a mechanism and a fund?
Fix your country, Nigeria, Ghana or whatever it is. If they buy enough Ford, maybe a factory will open in Ghana. Imagine opening a factory in a country that does not buy your products.

We Africans should move from blaming others for our shortcomings. This is why South Africa is targeting Africans. This your mentality is why.

Bayelsaowei, this man is talking to you on how the care for humanity works

You seem to be on the side of people who don't care for humanity.

It is why Oct 7th happened, it is why you are seeing this Iran war, it is why there were so much casualties in Gaza and for some reason the people who want people to die left and right and the side you are empathetic to.

I am not playing that video.

You were ready to support the Us/Isreal bombing the hell out of women, children and others that stood around civil infrastructures in Iran.

It seems Trump has turned out better than you guys in this group by stepping back on his threats.

But you and others were already salivating, waiting to see the extermination of those Iranians, same as it happened to the innocent women and children in Gaza.

More like you shy away from basic common sense and fact because it will contradict your belief.

It seems like you follow this your anti-Trump and anti-American agenda like a religion.

Someone from the UAE is talking about how different they are from the Iranian regime. This is why you would likely go on a vacation in the UAE or work-related assignment in the UAE rather than Iran or Gaza you like to whitewash.

The familiar alchemy of imperial innocence: commit the crime, profit from the crime, ensure the compensation of slave owners when the crime ends, then seek moral credit for moderating the system you helped to create. It is a politics of historical laundering.

This your logic will be rejected by even a lice.
By your logic, all of us suffered from slavery so who pays who? Even the white men you love to accuse, their gggggggrrrrrrreat grand parents suffered from slavery.

I understand, and what you just post is nonsense and if I disagree it's because I don't understand. Look at you 😂😂😂😂

Again, suffering isn't genetically inherited like that. If it were, we would owe reparations to virtually every ethnic group on this planet. From descendants of Roman slaves, Mongol conquest victims, Arab slave trade survivors, intra-African war captives, Irish indentured servants, etc. Trauma can echo culturally and psychologically across generations, but turning that into perpetual national debt claims is a political construct, not consostent moral principle.

So you want to force a company into Ghana because of historical grievance?

I am not blaming anyone for my shortcomings, ben. What I am doing is create opportunities for my Ghanaian people to earn and be responsible for reducing their own shortcomings today. I can assure you that none of my Ghanaian people is waiting to be longcomings before they eat food they can put on their tables themselves if some barriers are removed.

Below, incidentally, is USA crying about over production in China but not saying anything about their own overproduction of maize. Don't miss the point now.

TV01:
I didn't say a strong defense of culture was a hallmark of greatness. And, l didnt list iit in the main part of my response - there are rubbish cultures and practices that are strongly defended.

My point was that, having attained to greatness - even if only relative - the ability to maintain and defend those things that enabled and delivered said greatness is important.

I noted that with particular reference to the West, which is currently under attack from within and without, due to a failure to do just that.

What does "push culture in a positive direction" mean? How does that happen in any given settling, given that in both relative and absolute terms what would be positive varies widely. I noted the defence of rubbish cultures and practices earlier.


TV
For instance the way food or clothes culture changes to be more inclusive, that is an example of a positive direction. There many other ways culture can change in a positive direction. I feel that you as a conservative Christian might not agree with some of them but they make society better.

If people inherit wealth, advantage and privilege, people also inherit poverty, disadvantage and deprivation.

And if that poverty, disadvantage and deprivation was propagated by an institutionalised racist system, then compensation is in order.

Especially when the perpetrators and their descendants were compensated.

It is painfully ridiculous to go so far as to argue that even an apology is not in order.

Benalvino Badenoch.

My only difficulty with the matter of reparations is that determining who gets what will be too complex to be realistic.

But moral acknowledgement is in order.

The problem is, everyone in the world today deserve the same reparation. Every single person on earth is related to someone that was a slave.

Being related is not sufficient to indicate situational inherited marginalisation.
