Everyone who is alive today is descended from slave owners, thieves, rapists, murderers, conquerors and oppressors. They are also all descended from people who were the victims of slavery, theft, rape, murder, conquest and oppression. If people are responsible for the actions of their ancestors, then we are all guilty of damn near everything, and it's basically just original sin without all the Catholicism.

Do y'all have the reading compression of a fruit fly or is it an instinct to play the victim role every time the word white is mentioned? No where did I ascribe intergenerational blame.

I was responding to someone else's post which was discussing intergenerational blame. I'm sorry if this made you feel like you weren't the center of attention for 2 seconds. But I'm sure if you keep being an asshole to random strangers on the internet you'll eventually fill that void.
