What crime did the Americans of Japanese heritage commit? And, why did Barr not acknowledge the internment? Racism is a perversion. A perversion of Capitalism, justified the owning of workers, to keep the prices of commodities down. A perversion of the Constitution allowed us to lock up people who looked like our Japanese enemies, but not our German enemies, during WWII. A perversion of our humanity, and the principles of our majority religion today, allow for the mistreatment of children as small as babies because their parents looked to us for sanctuary in the "Land of the Free."

Racism is not the exclusive domain of political parties. The Democratic Party defended racism and elected overt Racists from Reconstruction to the end of the 1960s. The Democrats locked up the Japanese Americans during WWII. It just so happens that the Civil Rights Laws drove Racist Democrats to the Republican Party. It seems to now be the party of choice of people who espouse racist philosophies, demonstrate racist practices, and enforce racist rules. I include Mr. Barr in that group.

Notice I used GET locked up. Meaning in the present... Not the past. I love watching people melt down thinking they have made some kind of grand amazing point.... When they don't know what they are speaking of.

"Racism" doesn't even mean anything anymore. All it is is a term of abuse to stop white people from defending their interests.

Racism is strong in this one.

Translation: "White person, stop defending yourself and your interests. Stop objecting to the lies and abuse about your and your people."

Yes it does... Its an actual thing still. The amount of racist terrible people are increasing daily. Of course I'm talking about BLM - who has thousands of members that post #whitelivesdontmatter vids bricking an old white guy in the head.

According to the Barr quote you posted “The Greatest Intrusion On Civil Liberties In American History”

Ok, pay attention….’the greatest’…he did not state ‘the only’ as you seem to be implying here!

331,420,450 MILLION Americans put in a national lockdown and stay at home orders
Vs
120,000 THOUSAND Japanese-Americans put in internment camps, housed in barracks, with multiple families living together in communal areas. Each functioned as its own town with schools, a post office, and farmland, all monitored by guards and closed off to the outside world with barbed wire fences.

So yeah, 331,420,450 vs 120,000 there is no comparison
I’m sure Barr remembers the internment camps but it was not what he was speaking about

Since you brought it up…
• a Democrat ordered the Japanese-American internment camps - Franklin Delano Roosevelt
• kids were not put behind bars, they were not in a prison or jail, though they may have been ‘fenced’ in
• By December 1944, the Supreme Court put an end to Japanese internment camps in the Endo v. the United States case, ruling that the War Relocation Authority "has no authority to subject citizens who are concededly loyal to its leave procedure." The following month, Japanese-American “evacuees” from the West Coast would finally be allowed to return to their homes. The last camp did not close until March 1946.

You realize scale matters, right? Lockdowns which affect hundreds of millions of people are not the same as internment of a few tens of thousands.

Well then. Slavery only affected a few millions of Black people. So, it is not on the scale of lockdowns that inconvenienced hundreds of millions of White people. There is no comparison.

Getting meme topical - You think only white people rounded up the Japanese when that went down or something? They were the only people working those jobs?

I don't know - I'm trying to figure out how pandemic medical concerns equate to a particular heritage who got pulled off the streets because of war.

I'm lost now.

That's why he didn't compare them. He said slavery was worse. Shut up, you lying shit.

I'm sure they would've much rather worn a damn mask than have to be locked up in cages 24/7.

Sorry, retard, but it’s a lot more than wearing a mask. It’s shutting down businesses, destroying local economies, massive unemployment, despair, suicides skyrocketing.

Your utter lack of compassion for people facing real problems today is very revealing. It’s easy to virtue signal about injustices 70 years ago. You are a tool of tyrants today.
