My Danish ancestors dictated your history for some time.![]()
Great Society
If you succumb to the thinking fallacy of Broken Windows (Bastiat) and only examine the short-term intentions, then yes, they did good works, but when one goes a bit further into the lasting repercussions of the expanding ripples of unintended consequences, then not so much as if removing the black man from the household in order for black women and children to become locked into the government dependency designed to elevate them from poverty.
It did not work and it created generations of children without role models.
Again, Drs. Sowell and Williams have written extensively about the changes Liberal Social experimentation have made upon the black community. But visiting relatives on the reservation also taught me that lesson by direct observation.
Probably because corn wasn't known in England at the time.
What can I say, wooden ships and iron men.
You think your King's didn't prey on hard working people working for a living?
Wait, I'm no Democrat.![]()
You're a traitor to to what the Republic stands for.
We learned about all of the great Indian tribes and chiefs as well. I bet half these liberal have never heard of Bass Reeves or Grant Johnson, both famous lawmen in their times. Course we learned about politically incorrect shit too, like rich black folks who owned slaves, and slaves who chose to fight for the South.
Are you saying the civil rights act was a bad thing and that its passage is responsible for the state of black families? If I remember correctly, the majority of families now on welfare in the U.S. are white. I would guess from your pov this would be directly attributed to FDR.
Under which president was liberal social experimentation begun for American Indians? I would assume this goes back to the 19th century, if not before, when most of the Indians who were left were herded onto the reservations?
Liberal social experimentation is about as acceptable to most people as religious conservatism. Both need improvement.
I think if Bush had considered the long-term consequences of going to war, we wouldn't have half the economic problems we're now facing. It would be nice if before major decisions were made by the government that the leaders considered the long-term effects of what they do. But, they have a lifetime salary, benefits and retirement and corporations are now people, so they don't have much in the way of being set on fire to do what they were elected to do.
Yes, the civil rights act was pure political theater promulgated by the notion that the individual was no longer the paramount and the paragon of minority rights but that rights had to be decided in favor of groups thus beginning the Balkanization of the American melting pot and the trend of race warlords who would race-bait white liberals into welfare and income redistribution plans that enriched nobody other then the race war lords and the guilty white liberals who could raise money based upon the need for Social Justice for minorities. Thus began the cycle of teaching minorities that they were victims unable to advance on their own merit and by their own hard work, but, and here is the dangled carrot in the story, if they continued to support the white liberal intellectual class, then they would be given more welfare, more attention, and more "rights."
That welfare and that sense of entitlement has led to two, going on three, lost generations of black youth to the great American melting pot, decreasing our richness and diversity and dividing us to the point where we can no longer talk to each other as we are now talking to enemies who want to deny us our rights or take our money to fund the rights of people that we have done no harm to in the present but who have been taught to never, ever let go of the past, for if they do, they lose their power over government largess.

Then why don't we young folk experience that? I've never had any kind of tension like that with the black folk, or folk of any race for that matter. We, as a whole, are actually more akin to forget about our ancestors entirely along with their struggles. Nobody wants to think about that depressing shit. "My great grandpa was a slave" or "My great grandma was kidanapped and forced into Americinazation camps". Bitch we got cool apps and communication streams that span the globe. We're looking to the future. The past is full of savages idiots and a bunch of wars that seemed very important at the time. The present is about us, and I, for one, am quite egotysitcal. The future is about us too, but cooler then the present. We don't have time to dwell on the pain of our ancestors to the point that they bitch about it and we half listen while texting our friends.
So we have 2 or 3 lost generations due to civil rights? Interesting. So there were no lost generations before the civil rights act, only after it? Who are the race war lords?.That's the first time I've heard that term.
"Nobody I know of...," reminds me of the Nixon election.
The "We're technologically advanced and more connected than ever before," is a clear generational fallacy that one encounters historically leading the edge of all the great Socialist movements but it does not in any extent abrogate actual human behavior because we have had no significant real evolution in form or societal structure (other than Capitalism, that which is feared most by people who would be tribes).
Texting does not make you smarter, it just makes you more in tune with the consensus, and the consensus is not reason but emotion and it is emotion that returns us to the primitive. No primitive society based upon the good of the groups has flourished the way society did when it was based upon the natural rights of the smallest minority, the individual.

So, I guess you really believe this? I know it may be hard for you but could you cut down on.the cerebral academic talk and just write in normal everyday stanard American English? I'm not trying to offend you but if you really want more people to understand what you're saying you should consider your audeience. I'm 2 courses short in getting a degree in French so I've seen plenty of academic speak. It only works well in academia and does not cross over well to the general public.
Really?
No black people blame white people for their plight. I am that out of touch???
Not too long ago, during the debt ceiling debate, black congressmen and women said they were called niggers and spat upon when it did not happen. Maybe that wasn't talked about much in your cocooned consensus.
Have you had LT on ignore for so long that you fail to see the evidence right under your nose?
Dude, you would have tripped on REDWAVE! Makofin too!
