In the early hours of the Tulsa Race Massacre on May 31st 1921, 44 years before the civil rights movement brought an end to mandatory segregation, a Mob of White Supremacist Terrorists gathered around a Jail where a young black man was accused of a crime but the local sheriffs were protecting him by barricading the entrance to the floor he was held on, and a group of black men gathered in counter-protest but many were convinced to head home when the local law enforcement asked them, claiming they had the situation under control. Unfortunately, the situation escalated when an older white supremacist terrorist attempted to disarm a black counter-protestor by force, leading to a large gunfight that went on into the night and eventually the black men's retreat into the segregated black community of Greenwood. The white terrorist group had allies in the local government who claimed that Greenwood was an uprising with reinforcements from neighboring cities, and that lead to some 1,000 additional armed terrorists, roughly 1% of the total population of Tulsa at the time, to invade Greenwood and begin the massacre that left a trail of dead and wounded while also burning down the majority of homes.
The perpetrators in these cases were different. The victims were different. You can sit there and claim that the attack on the MOVE compound had nothing to do with the terrorist cult stockpiling illegal weapons, threatening violence to achieve their goals of anti-technology and anti-governance, and shielding their members from lawful arrest, but you're simply wrong. You can sit there and pretend that the Philly Police evacuating the area and attempting to force the cult out of the compound with tear gas is somehow equivalent to Tulsa terrorists burning down greenwood with people inside, but you're wrong.
While you're at it, why don't you start comparing this to Auschwitz?
because this has nothing to do with concentration camps, and everything to do with the American government and government related massacres in America?
I mean, if you want to bring concentration camps into this, we can start talking about why a majority of the American prison population is black and are used as life long slave labor.
no, but for a long time Irish, Italians, Germans etc... weren't white, until they needed to increase the size of "whites" because there weren't enough WASPS to outnumber POC
You realize there are at least 15 different ethnicities currently in Africa, right? Then there are also dark tones from islands, Americas, and Asia in addition. Black is also just a concept. That's what all races are, demographic groups assigned to vague characteristics. You're not having a "gotcha" moment, you're having an aneurysm.
That's a borderline insult, and you reported them for misinformation when what they're saying is how it really was.
I think the confusion is they're talking about what really happened, and you're acting like they're saying it was right.
"White" was expanded in America to include Irish and Italians.
As they lost the majority, they'd let in more groups to maintain the majority. No one is saying that made logical sense, and those lines are arbitrary.
