[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reparations are the critical step, and necessary precedent step, for a just, equitable and peaceful SF.[/quote] Explain to me exactly how the mechanics of reparations work. Why should an immigrant who had absolutely nothing to do with the oppressive history or policies have to pay? And who collects? What if you're black, but an African immigrant who was never enslaved by Westerners? Or what if you're West Indian, who was enslaved, but entirely under different colonialism than US history? Exactly how do you calculate an EQUITABLE solution, of who pays, how much they pay, and who receives, and how much they receive? And do you really think some kind of simple cash payout will actually solve the social issues?[/quote] Vital questions - but no answers? If this is such a critical, necessary precedent step then why haven't any of these things been thought through?[/quote]
