Finally someone pushes back!

It's so much fun taking these totally ridiculous BLM demands and spinning them out to their logical conclusions....

I was thinking about the whole deal with blacks blaming their current plight on slavery, an institution that ended more than 150 years ago. Here's how this is absurd: just about every civilization has at one time or another been subjugated sometime in the past. If blacks can claim special status/excuses because of their past history, why couldn't the following groups of people do the same?

Jewish people (they'd be first on anyone's list!!!)
Native Americans, except for Alaskans as they were never subjugated the way the continental north american tribes were
Palestinians
Maori people of New Zealand and Australia
Northern/Catholic Irish
Armenians
Cambodians
Russia, Ukraine, and all countries formerly part of the Soviet Union & Soviet bloc
Mayan and Aztec people (subjugated by the Spanish)
the Picts (pre-Celtic British people)
Celtic British (after arrival of the Saxons)
Anglo-saxon English (after the Norman Conquest)
Residents of conquered regions of the Roman Empire

These are just a few that came to mind...I'm sure there are many more. So why are American blacks so special??? Subjugation sometime in your past is nearly universal, as it turns out. Amazing how it doesn't seem to correlate with social and material success.
