Andrew Jackson is on the Twenty Dollar Bill. It doesn't need to be changed. Most of what Harriet Tubman did was exaggerated anyway. Originally Posted by Levianon17but but the movie? lol

So many mixed messages.
Floyd died at the knee of a smirking White Cop, who posed with Floyd like a Deer Hunter who just bagged a 10-point Buck.
But how does that become what is has become? A near worship of a majorly flawed Man, who happened to be the victim of the murder in Minneapolis?
What does Juneteenth have to do with Floyd's murder?
Floyd was a Slave in life. a Slave to his personal Demons. a drug addict with an extensive criminal history. Jesus Christ died brutally, but he lived an exemplary life. Does Floyd get to be Jesus-like, simply because he died in a brutal manner AND is black?
I'm not even going to mention (ok, I guess I am) places like Seattle and Portland, where people burned and destroyed entire neighborhoods in the name of George Floyd justice. Huh???
''My Daddy changed the World'', Floyd's daughter famously stated. The Daddy who, frankly, was an absentee Father, barely a Daddy at all to her, but she is too young to understand that. I won't be surprised at all, to see Floyd heralded as a great Father, this Father's Day weekend. With his Daughter's quote as a form of evidence. Let's stop the Deification of George Floyd. Nothing positive can come from an absurd identity. Originally Posted by Chung Tran

I wonder if some of the Black Whores I frequent, might go for some Tubman Twenties? Seeing their own likeness might make them fail to consider the bills' inauthenticity.I tried passing off some Lizzo 20s at Onyx and got beat up.
Wait, hang on. Floyd was originally accosted over a fake $20. Do we know if George had an early facsimile of a Tubman Twenty? Originally Posted by Chung Tran

Forget the fact that she is smiling and inviting you to try her pancakes. The Liberals want whites in particular to have a negative view instead of a positive one. I think it's disgusting what these bastards have done to American Society. Liberals have convinced Americans they are Racist, Homophobic, Bigots.
this is a different form of gaslighting. Originally Posted by dilbert firestorm

He is being used as a symbol for blacks only while completely ignoring other races such as asians are indians who are treated just as poorly as blacks. Its makes me shake my damn head at my own race every time, they victimize themselves so much that they can care less about any other race except their own, which in itself is fucking racist.

It is very hard to believe.Miss Opal has the true Martin Luther King spirit. She marched Saturday morning, once again, not resting on her success at getting the Juneteenth Holiday passed days ago. 94 years old, older than King himself would be today.

Most of what we see in today's society is geared towards the younger Generations. I am 63 they can't do anything with me. I know the difference between right and wrong. I am not a racist and I'll be dammed if a group of political freaks are going to make me feel otherwise.

BILL MAHERThe Young, The Woke, Kevin Hart ...THEY HAVE A BAD CASE OF PROGRESS-O-PHOBIA!!!
Bill Maher went deep Friday night with blistering words for young people, super-woke folks and Kevin Hart ... diagnosing all of them with a severe case of "progress-o-phobia."
Maher -- a take-no-prisoners liberal who is not afraid to call out like-minded individuals who he says go way too far -- lambasts Americans who complain things have never been worse.
The 'Real Time' host makes a solid case ... we have achieved progress in race relations, gay rights, drug policies, and on and on, yet there's a sizable contingent who believe we've hit rock bottom.
Bill calls out Kevin Hart in particular, who told the NY Times, "You're witnessing white power and privilege at an all-time high." Maher tears that apart with examples of past atrocities like Tulsa, KKK violence and massive, forced segregation.
He's quick to mention ... there's still racism, police violence, the works, but things are better than before.
And, this is where B.M. tears into Gen Z, informing them there was actually a world before they were born, yet they are unwilling or unable to contextualize their grievances.
Watch the clip ... you may agree or disagree, but Bill Maher makes you think ... and that's becoming an increasingly rare commodity. Originally Posted by HedonistForever

Friends and family are everything. The slights they experience are things like: "I went to the hospital to visit my mother and was asked 'Doctor which dept do you work in?'" Seriously.
