POS President Chump blames DEI for plane crash

You keep acting like white Europeans invented slavery. They did not.
If the white Europeans were so hell bent in enslaving black people, why did they even buy the black captives? Why didn't they just save the money and enslave them all?
I never gave any implications that white Europeans invented slavery. Slavery has been around for thousands of years. What I did say that white Europeans did invent racism based on the pseudoscience of measuring skulls of blacks and whites in order to determine intelligence. During this time the concept of races, white, black, and Asian, of humans is born. Again, this is around the 16 and 17 centuries.

Your last sentence is ridiculous.
 
Never mind, I found it. Not the first racist to work in government, but his job is minor.

In contrast, I recall a racist who served not in a minor job, but as president until Jan. 20 this year. I would wager that you voted for that racist.

No, they're culpable, but had the labor been in the form of Chinese or Indians or (insert continent here), it wouldn't have made any difference. As 03 said, this was driven much more by economics than racism. Black Africans just happened to be the supply that met the demand at the time (mostly because it's a lot easier to sail from Europe to Africa than it is to Eastern Asia or India.) Look at a map....
Why didn’t the Europeans enslave European criminals? Much closer than Africa, don’t you think. Cheaper as they would not have to buy them. Then ship them over to the US.

What you call whataboutism is simply pointing out your lib hypocrisy.

You did vote for the racist Joe Crow Biden, right? The president who called the gov of Maryland "boy", etc.

They did. Debtors prisons, indentured servants, etc.

As a student of history, you already know all of this about the history of slavery.

I know. But did not sustain for a full blown workforce for servitude like they did the Africans. Indenture servants were free after a set number of years. The Africans were slaves for life in most cases.

If you are talking about the Africans selling their war captives to the slave traders yeah I know all about that. That never been a secret. Where have you been? The Boneman and I have been talking about this for 2 days now.
