I am sure we will be able to have a reasoned and nuanced discussion.
Sorry man, I just can't take more than a few seconds of those videos.
We could have a nuanced discussion, if it were a nuanced subject. But it isn't. It's black and white.
We could have a discussion on the treatment of people in modern society, but having a discussion about established history is impossible. Especially that history. But people like her seem to think that they really are putting forth ideas and trying to have adult conversations. The flaw in their argument is to try to tell us about things that happened in a different context that lends itself to changing the reality of those events.
I heard a good interview the other day. A couple guys went to take a Plantation Tour in Louisiana. Very scenic. Plantations have become a destination for weddings and parties etc. They were the very first
black men to take
that plantation tour. Needless to say, it was very awkward for everyone.
And they were genuinely surprised that anything that actually had to do with slaves has been demolished and removed from that plantation. No buildings. No pictures. All removed. Complete re-write of history. Just like the Confederate organizations that try to paint the slaves in the camps with soldiers, as being soldiers fighting for the south.
This is what people like Carano, whether intentionally or not, try to do. They pretend that their ancestors weren't the kind of people to line up Jews and march them into gas chambers, by pretending everyone was doing it. Poland even recently made a law that saying Poland was involved in such things is illegal.
{s}No! Our ancestors didn't have slaves while they were fighting the Yanks! They were actually black people fighting for slavery! They loved slavery!{/s}
I love a good debate, but there is a line I don't cross. I don't walk up to cameras and say "F- her right in the pussy!" because it's a dick thing to do and people lose their careers over it.
It's not like she wasn't warned that what she was doing would end hers. I don't really see any debate to be had.
