That tracks.

Racists would rather sht on the Constitution than address racial inequalities.

The upcoming Hispanic majority is not interested in this conversation. Times up.

Why spend the time and money to study something that is impossible to implement? First, Maryland is in debt and facing a serious financial crisis. Second, voters will hate this. Third, if the state approved reparations, they would get sued and spend years battling this out in Courts. This seems more performative than serious and seems really, really poorly timed.

Your elected government is very stupid. These are pathetic people. That’s why.

Exactly, vote for imbeciles, get imbecile legislative proposals. Sadly, people vote for what they think will put money in their pockets, never mind that the money has to come from somewhere. "Somebody else" will pay for the wish list, is the expectation. As long as I get mine, who cares?

It's yet another grift. California has spent $12 million on legislation, not actual reparations. The cost to run the agency to distribute/determine reparations is estimated to be $3-$5 million.

Will hit the Governor’s desk before becoming law, so it isn’t a done deal yet. Nevertheless, it is newsworthy.

Just stop drinking the koolaid.
It’s shrinking your brain.

They should only do so if England/ Europe pays for their part in it.

And the black African slave owners who enriched themselves by selling off their black slaves.

Maybe it’s newsworthy, but it’s a tiny blip on the radar compared to the utter and complete incompetence being displayed by the current “presidential” administration.


They aren't mutually exclusive and unfortunately have a tendency to reinforce one another.


This 100%.

White Americans refuse to pay reparations not because there is no money (there is always never ending money for war) but simply because they do not care about the wrongs they continue to perpetuate (a learned behavior from their ancestors). They simply enjoy and revel in their debauchery.

No matter, the sword that is used on another becomes doubly sharp on one's self. It's why America is falling apart at the seams at the hands of their own race (re: Trump/Elon). The continued racism has now come to fruition and judgment in the form of Elon has hit Americans steps.

The pit dug for others to sink is now sinking MAGA Trump voters, passive Trump couch non-voters (those who applauded his plans in their hearts) and those who "held their nose" Trump supporters.

Now the economy is sinking, people in public and private sector are losing their jobs, Elon has stolen your data and will weaponize it against you in the future, your crops are being wiped out by disastrous storms, and your farmers are at risk of bankruptcy.


The cosmic heavens haven't forgotten the sins committed against African Americans. America can either pay reparations or sink burning money into trying to save what is another fallen Rome.

Elon is essentially broke. He financed the Trump election because Trump is broke. In return Elon made a deal with an even greater devil than himself or Trump, he (Elon) is siphoning your data to sell on the black market. Don't be surprised when an invasion hits your shores. You can come back to this post to sear this prophecy in your mind. Because your data has been sold to the highest bidder and a blackout day is coming soon.

Should have paid those reparations.

It's always someone else's fault. Republicans love to shift the blame and absolve themselves of any accountability.

Look at the orange turd they elected and allow to sht on democracy.
