These are the people we're told we're supposed to give reparations to because . . . slavery and stuff.

The Usual suspects 🙄

9z1v4a.jpg (click to show) do Quakers have to pay reparations?

Anyone remember Patrice Cullors of BLM when she feared being near white people
But then bought a big house in a Topanga neighborhood near Los Angeles, a neighborhood full of white people ?

Money solves all problems
If 5 of ma beeyatches get reparations, that means I get 6 shares of reparations.
Mine, and theirs.
Beeyatches pay for protection provided.

As I expect you're already aware since you posted it, but just in case you (or others) aren't, this is quite obviously a fake troll/spoof meme. The actual text is taken from this article here (it's quite an involved 0-min read but not too technical so shouldn't take you more than about 5 minutes – or 10 if you wanna enjoy it with a coffee):

https://www.debarelli.com/post/the-case-for-reparations-can-black-america-ever-repay-white-america-for-all-the-damage-they-ve-done

Lots of other well-written academic well-researched stuff on there if you wanna check out how Jews are taking over the world and pushing their evil Globalist Cult, climate change is a Communist hoax, vaccines are deadly, and a bunch of other fascinating conspiracy theories we all need to know about.

The WaPo leans fairly leftwing and you won't find an article by that title anywhere, because it doesn't exist. They also don't write stuff like "Blacks [sic] have committed so many r*pes... "

They do write stuff like this, however:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/the-case-for-reparations-begins-with-people-like-my-great-great-grandparents/2019/08/27/b3d94bc0-c5c4-11e9-b72f-b31dfaa77212_story.html

The heading is partly taken from a 2014 article in The Atlantic magazine by Ta-Nehisi Coates, entitled "The Case for Reparations":

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/act-four/wp/2014/05/22/culture-change-and-ta-nehisi-coatess-the-case-for-reparations/

You're welcome. x

I mean, obviously I got the "joke", ofc. Just pointing out some stuff in case some viewers assumed this was a genuine article from the Washington Post, because people often believe memes these days at face value. (LPT: NEVER EVER EVER believe a meme without rigorously fact-checking it (and then fact-check it again). I should know; I literally make them to troll people lol. You can knock this stuff up in seconds, especially with AI.)

I have as good a SOH as the next person – a lot of people I meet randomly tell me I'm very funny and should do standup actually lol, if you can believe it. (A very f**ked-up one, to be sure, but I still have one. So yes, I did "get" the joke.)

Dude, SOH is highly subjective anyway. But yes, I do have a SOH and plenty of people who know can vouch for that. And plenty of people have told me I'm funny, believe it or not.

I just don't laugh at all the stuff you do, sorry. I don't find bigoted or racist stuff funny. I find all kinds of extremely dark and twisted humor funny, actually. You might be surprised. I have a very f**ked-up and twisted SOH, believe me. I laugh at stuff that normal people would flinch at. I'm not averse to black humor or gore, at all. You get me wrong. I laugh at shit that is super f**ked up.

But laughing at black or trans people isn't funny for me. It's just kind of boring.

At least I take the time to respond carefully to most of your comments with proper replies and links, no matter how unhinged or inflammatory they are. Do you at least acknowledge that? That at least I take the time to do that?

How many other leftists do you know on this site do that, btw? Tell me. Who just disable their comments like losers? At least I bother to engage. I'm curious. I could just disable my comments or block you like the other "leftists". But I don't do any of that, do I? That would be so easy. Do you see me do any of that? No. Because I believe in engagement.

I open myself up to comments. If I make a meme, you can take the almighty piss out of it. I don't block that, do I? But I could. But I don't, because I believe in engagement.

So call me a child all you like. But at least I engage. I don't have to. Do you at least acknowledge that I do that? Plenty of other people don't.

I could just say f**k it and block you all cos I have better things to do. But I don't.

None of em have anything to do with slavery 😭😭

Dude, are you blind? They're "black". That means "black" people are violent. "Black" people shoot guns. Guns kill people.

"White" people shoot up schools every other week but that's different.

"White" people also bomb half the Middle East and kill millions of civilians. That's also different.

"White" people also destabilize entire countries and overthrow regimes. And f**k up half of Latin America.

That's also different.

"Black" people are inherently violent. And I can prove that to you scientifically with one viral video that has no date, location or source. But that doesn't matter. The main point is "black" people are violent. "Black" people shoot people. Do I need to repeat this?

So we need to build a Wall and deport people to keep the American people safe.

How is that hard to understand? Are you a bit slow? Do you not care about keeping your family safe? Are you secretly a traitor to your nation?

Maybe you don't love America, after all? Maybe you secretly approve of shooting people?

Maybe we should deport you too?

/s for the benefit of all the dumb Americans on here .

Man what on earth 😭😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏🙏🥀🥀🥀🥀

I even included the /s tag! What more do you want, people?

Anyway on any other sane website on planet f**king earth this entire braindead post would've been flagged as hate speech in 2 minutes and removed by the moderators for the idiotic disgustingly racist childish ragebait that it is and the poster (Chad whatever the f**k his name is) blocked for acting like a moron.

But here we are. Where the mods are apparently shameless and proud neo-Nazi sympathizers. Welcome to Imgflip lol. Have fun. x

Oh PS Chad says he's a "Christian" lol.

I'm sure Jesus would approve.

God only knows what version of the New Testament he's been reading but news flash: Jesus didn't write Mein f**king Kampf while in prison.

Take your fake bullshit "Christianity" elsewhere, Chad. You're going to hell, bro, just like me. Sorry to break it to you. You don't know the first thing about Jesus and you're an absolute disgrace to everyone who calls themselves a Christian and everything Jesus ever stood for and every single genuinely believing Christian who ever died or was martyred for their faith.

And shame on you, Mods, for allowing this kind of idiotic hateful filth that belongs in the 1950s. But I've come to expect this from this ridiculous stream that has zero standards and shameless moderators who don't seem to care about morals or what the world thinks of them.

Thanks for bringing this entire website into disrepute and making Imgflip a den of unhinged neo-Nazi lunatics instead of a place to have intelligent intellectual discussions about politics. I hope you're proud of yourselves. God bless. x

People should be allowed to speak what they think...

Okay, Mr (or Ms) Free Speech.

I agree. People should be allowed to speak what they think. I think your mom is a w**re after I f**ked her last night. And your race is inferior to mine and your dick is so small you shouldn't be allowed to breed.

How do you feel? I'm just expressing my free speech, okay? It's a free country, right?

Wrong. (And now you want to flag me for hateful speech. You see where your argument breaks down?)

Free speech does not mean the freedom to say or do whatever the hell you want. There is no such thing is 100% free speech. That's just some idiotic myth that's been allowed to fester in the West because no one had the guts to call it out. I can't walk around town wearing a T-shirt that says "Gas the [insert minority]". I'd get arrested. Free speech simply means I'm allowed to criticize or mock the government, religion or society and express my opinion without fear of repercussions. It doesn't give me the right to say or do *literally anything*.

All freedom comes with responsibility and regard for others.

This post is not about free speech. It's just spreading hateful rhetoric and nonsense.

Yes, we can debate what the limits and definitions are, and where your freedom to speak ends and my freedom to be hurt/offended begins, til the cows come home and that would be an actual valid intellectual debate. But this post literally depicts a "black" man shooting a gun then talks about "reparations" and "slavery". So I think it's clear what the message is. It's just hateful puerile nonsense and should never have been approved, if the Mods had any morals or backbone.

"And now you want to flag me for hateful speech."
No I don't. I don't care. I don't let words on a meme website get to me. And anyone who actually has a spine wouldn't either.

I mean idk if I wanna flag you bc you're kinda funny tbh 😃

Well thanks for the compliment.

Anyway, flag me for what? Because I dare to speak my mind and the truth and stand up for common human decency and standards that other people are too cowardly to do (or have better things to do), which has allowed this place to descend into a cesspit of rightwing bigotry and conspiracy theory nonsense?

Do it.

Make the mods aware of how ridiculous and shameless they are.

Block me.

Then I'll know just what a ridiculous site this is.

And I'll spend my time on better things than arguing with uneducated bigoted fools.

This Chad fellow should have been blocked long ago.

And if he's a Christian then Jack the Ripper is the Archbishop of Canterbury.

Utterly delusional if he thinks he's actually living a Christian life. He's disgracing the name of Jesus. And I'm a f**king atheist ffs.

But even I'm offended.

Disgusting. Utterly disgusting. Both him and the fools who approved this ridiculous post.

How dare he disgrace the name of Jesus like this? Get your own religion. But you ain't no Christian, I'm afraid. You have a lot of soul-searching to do, my friend.

And it begins with not hating people.

Calling someone a racist or even calling them out on it is actually a bigger rule violation than the racist statements they post themselves (if they're Right Wingers) here. I'm not kidding, that was the first timer I got, four of them at once, in fact, for insulting someone who literally only posted racist comments (admittedly, I really did insult him, and good). Literally that's the only thing he ever did, just post openly racist comments and nothing but, and I got a timer for putting him down. His offensive comments, of course, got to stay.

Meanwhile, I once got a timer for "insulting Ebonics" for using slang from my own hometown, the Bronx. 48. For using our slang. Insulting Ebonics.

But these Eminem wannabes can use it all they like with impunity, which is what the one I was responding to with said slang was doing. He was a faker pretending to be from Brooklyn, and it was obvious he had never ever even been remotely close to New York, probably the US as well (he claimed they were trailer parks in Brooklyn! Brooklyn! Where a mere driveway would cost more than a big solid house in most states). He could use our lingo, but I can't. I had an apartment for 21 years two streets away from Washington Avenue, the official birthplace of that scene. And I'm not allowed to use the lingo from my hoo✖️, excuse me, my town.

phew, that was close

Can now confirm: your warning checks out.

Interesting place they've got going here...

I got blocked 24 hrs for critiquing a transphobe lol.

It's okay to post super offensive stuff. But I told them to "get a life" and I'm a monster. If I'm offensive, fair enough. But this is about common decency.

This post is unfeatured btw cos I flagged it lol. (Yes, thank me later, Chad.) Claiming black people are criminals. That's pretty weak.

I think I get how this crazy place works now so thanks.

Anyway two can play at that game. I got a few posts blocked too. Neo-Nazi nutjobs have got too comfy round here.

I am A Christian lol. I even mod the Christian stream, its pretty big now :)

Okay, and how do you feel as a true follower of Christ to see content such as this?

Do you tolerate it in the name of free speech, or do you actually agree with OP's "message" (whatever that even is)?

Does this sort of thing align with your Christian values?

Is "Chad" displaying the fruits of the Spirit and leading an example of a good Christian life by posting such content (and inciting whatever it is he aims to incite)?

I'm literally an atheist and even I find this morally disturbing.

So I'm genuinely curious what kind of Christianity you practise.

Its a sin to murder yeah
And he's calling these people out for it

That's your take on this?

Nothing else?

Yes, it is a sin to murder. Even I know that.

But I think there may be an additional subtext implied here, wouldn't you agree?

Seriously, is this the state of American Christianity these days? It's pretty sad.

If that's the state of your "religion", you might as well not bother tbh.

I'm not racist btw I love all of them the same

Well that's nice.
At least Jesus would probably agree with you on that lol.

Not as much as you pookie 🥰

anyways you should totally follow me

🤣❤️
You're funny haha.

I approve because it seems to be disagreeing with that the murderers deserve reparations because their ancestors were slaves. But they had nothing to do with that, plus they're bad people so they don't deserve anything

Well all I can say is I'm disappointed in you.

Anyway the video shows people shooting. I don't think it shows any actual murders or murderers. (If it did, maybe the spineless mods would actually have disallowed it because they might actually get in trouble for allowing gore (but blatant racism is fine)).

Even if the people in that video actually are murderers, for the sake of argument, please show me where those murderers have demanded "reparations" for the Slave Trade.

They haven't. Because you've inferred and projected that. Because they're "black".

So you've projected this narrative which is entirely in your head(s) onto a random video of some nutters in a shootout. For which we have zero context btw and don't even know if it's real anyway (but let's assume it is, because it makes no difference to my argument).

That is why it's problematic.

I'm genuinely surprised and saddened that someone who claims to be a follower of Christ could endorse this kind of simplistic propaganda. Sorry.

ooh you should prepare a few questions to give me about my morals, and if I answer them right then we can follow each other ok

Question 1: Why do you approve of this ridiculous "meme" if you claim to be a follower of Christ?

Question 2: See Question 1. 🤣

pls bro I don't have a lot of followers 🙏🙏

🤣 Dude you already have 571 followers.

Are you starting a sect or sth?

I don't follow people for no reason.

I'm happy to follow you if you're a sensible person with morals and values.

If you can prove to me you are, then maybe I will.

But as it stands it appears you're in support of a ridiculous old-school racist af post (which I flagged btw, so two can play at that game lol). Not that the mods give a shit anyway.

You're supposed to be a Christian ffs. How can you stand for this shit?!

This is not what your religion teaches. You know that.

If you think it is, then I can only say your "church" has diverged so much from the actual Gospel that it might as well be classed as a heresy, and that's sad.

Hey can you follow me pls 🙏🙏

Why? Are you Jesus now lol?

You literally mod a Christian stream and you're totally fine with a blatantly old-school in-your-face racist post? Really?

I have Christian family who are deeply devout and believe me the Christ they worship is not the same as the Christ you (and "Chad") claim to worship.

I'm sorry.

Btw I just want to say I'm not here to either belittle or mock your beliefs. I don't have hate for anyone. But I have righteous anger against injustice.

I literally grew up as a Christian for like 20 years. I'm not here to "mock" Christianity at all. I have family and friends who are devout Christians. And I was one myself. Why would I mock that?

So actually I do have an interest in Christianity. And that's why I care when I see it used in the wrong ways.

Maybe it's for that reason that I get offended when people distort it, like Trump does, for hate.

So yes, I am very familiar with the Bible.

I'm not here to belittle your beliefs at all. I would be literally belittling my own beliefs, and half my life.

Not quite sure how "white" my hate is (whatever that means). Anyone who saw me would literally say I'm white so I'd be hating myself. (Tbf, some people do do that but I'm not one of them. I can't exactly feel guilty for the body I was born with ffs.)

I don't identify as woke either. And I think grifting frauds like the infamous Robin DiAngelo arch-trouble-maker deserve a special place in ExtraHell alongside the likes of Nigel Farage, for spreading unbelievable hate and profiteering immensely off gullible well-meaning people.

($14,000 for a single speech, apparently. 14K for a single speech?! That's more than a lot of people earn in a YEAR. Obscene isn't even the word. It's beyond obscene. Making money supposedly to help working-class Black people?)

Is she sponsoring orphans or the homeless, investing in infrastructure in deprived communities, or using her wealth and influence to actually help poor people, or doing any number of charitable and philanthropic projects with all her wealth? Paying to stop kids dying from preventable diseases? Buying up rainforest? Doing anything vaguely humanitarian that any human person like me would do with her wealth? Apparently not. Nope. She bought a fancy house, though. What a witch.

So I hope she rots in hell and burns forever (not that I believe in anything so silly ofc). (She has a nice mansion, I hear. Paid for by countless gullible leftwing people who bought her ridiculous schtick telling them they're all racist from birth. She's another disgusting shameless parasite with apparently zero conscience. Seriously, is there a gene for this? Forget hating on immigrants or whatever: How do we rid society of these kinds of sociopathic parasitic people? For real? Are they like a virus on humanity?)

Anyway, I actually know a lot more about Christianity than you possibly can ever realize.

And I don't hate "white" people. I'm literally "white". Or at least I present as white. Why would I hate myself? That's stupid.

I'm not one of those people who goes around going omg that's racist to everything. And I'm definitely not woke. You've got the wrong person.

Also your post got unfeatured cos I flagged it for hate speech lol. Sorry. But we have standards. Sorry, Bro. You can't just spout hate nonstop you know? Even in the name of Jesus.

And yes, there does exist hate speech, more than just "speech people hate". This isn't about some snowflakes getting offended. Even in a society with free speech, there are standards and limits. It's not 100 pc free. And it never was.

I can't just say anything I want about you and say that's "free speech". And call you a snowflake for getting offended.

We have rules. Maybe you've misunderstood what "free speech" really means, and I don't blame you. It never meant total freedom to say or do anything you want. You have to live in a society.

There are plenty of things I could freely say that would offend and hurt you personally. If you get offended, I can't just argue you're being too "sensitive".

Freedom comes with responsibility. As Jordan Peterson might say.

There was never such a thing as 100% "free speech". That's a myth.

If you're on a desert island, than sure, shout what you like. But if you life in SOCIETY, you have to respect the rights of others. Free speech never meant total freedom. It means you can mock the government and not worry about a knock on your door at 5 am by the KGB. It means you can make fun of people and speak your opinions without fear of getting arrested.

It DOES NOT mean you can go around slagging people off and that's okay. Sorry.

You can't spready false rumors about people. That's called libel. You can't just say whatever the offensive f**k you like without consequences.

Sorry if you've been led to believe that "free speech" means you can act with impunity. But that's just not how it works. You can express you opinion all you like. And I'll be the first to defend that because I seriously value that (I speak my mind a lot, can't you tell?) But there are still consequences.

Okay, I admit your country is much more liberal than a lot of other countries about what constitutes "hate speech" due to your First Amendment.

If you tried this in Europe it might be different, but in the US, fair enough.

Tbf there's no dialog in it, so it's more hate sound or something. But anyway.

Posting a video of thugs is one thing. There's no shortage of that. And I probably agree with you that thug culture in Philadelphia is a big problem.

The issue here is you linking it to race and specifically to reparations and the Slave Trade. That is not in the video. You are arguably imposing that interpretation onto the video.

>You depict all white people as colonizers and evil slave owners.

Please show me where I've done that. I've heavily criticized the colonial history of the US and even that your country (the modern US) was built on colonialism. I'm not aware I've ever accused all white people of being colonizers, though. Nor do I have any animosity towards Americans living today. Same goes for Australians and others.

There is nothing in this video linking this shooting incident to those.

>Feel free to post a video of a bunch of white people shooting up their neighborhood in gang-like fashion as I have. Bet you won't though.

Why would I want to do that? So no, I won't, sorry. I know white people commit gun violence all the time. Do you want me to post videos of white people shooting up schools, or white people in police shootouts? I don't deny that happens all the time. And I could probably find videos of that if I really wanted. (I don't have access to police bodycams but if I really wanted I'm sure I could find plenty of videos of white people doing similar stuff.) But I don't really consume that kind of content and it may well get banned here anyway (even on Imgflip lol).

>white people from Europe conquered this land from a bunch of savages

Subjective. Although I might use a different term to your "savages".

>Most of the culture is ingrained into the black population for some reason

Also subjective.

>That being said, thank you for reporting my meme to get it taken down.

You're welcome.

>But most of them were cruel and violent.

Yes, I agree 100%. I don't like thugs, whatever color they are.

Yes, I'm a committed atheist now. An infidel. But I grew up as an Evangelical Christian, believe it or not, and I still have family that are very devout. And are real Christians who genuinely still follow Jesus. And I'm familiar with the Bible more than you might realize.

I'm not judging "white" people. I'm literally "white", so I'd be judging myself.

It's true that I can't judge your faith. Only God knows that. History is full of people fighting over who was a "real" Christian" and killing heretics.
