Discussing with a black Trump hater / troll on the internet, the troll said "whites enslaved blacks." I was dumbfounded. How on earth did he get the idea that "all whites" enslaved "all blacks"? Plantation owners and other capitalists enslaved people, "whites" didn't. I think like only 1% of the population owned slaves. There were even a few blacks who owned slaves. I'm not saying blacks weren't systematically victimized, but to say it was "whites" rather than actual slave owners is shocking. I never realized many blacks think this.
They have honestly been told or taught by either their parents, or in school, or somewhere that "whites" enslaved their ancestors. No wonder they hate whites. Its based on a ridiculous historical falsehood and racist interpretation of history, but if a majority believe it without even questioning it, it doesn't really matter. Politicians and teachers in school only fan the flames of this flawed view of history.
