I've had someone tell me black people should all (even the ones from other countries) thank every white person they see because "they'd still be savages if it weren't for us"
I still don't know how to respond to that level of stupid.
As if it were not the white people who were savages throughout the colonial history and even the modern history. Calling other people savages just because they lived in a better harmony with nature and not chasing materialistic wealth while simultaneously fucking up the environment.
The problem with the onion now is this headline is absolutely expected, at least in a past tense. Maybe they wouldn't plan to have that debate, but I can imagine it happening during a debate.

Every joke has a kernel of truth to it. This one is so big it's a choking hazard though.

That never happened
And even if it did…it wasn’t that bad
And even if it was, you deserved it/liked it
See what you made me do? I wouldn’t have to enslave you like this if it wasn’t so easy and profitable . You basically made me do it. You slut.

I'm using a new app. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.

Problem is, that headline is not out of reach because “slavery was good for black people” HAS BEEN SAID BY DESANTIS
