      ^^^ Your brain on white supremacy

      After France was expelled from Haiti, they forced Haiti to pay for the lost land and slaves for 122 years.

      It’s no wonder that nations which have had their natural resources and people exploited for hundreds of years, have had their culture and native intitutions marginalized if not exterminated, have had families decimated by slavery and political repression, and continue to be exploited even after nominal independence struggle to succeed. Of course they are owed reparations. They deserve comprehensive support, a Marshall Plan for independence. You break it, you fix it.

      Middle schoolers’ understanding of history spotted.

      You should get educated on the issue instead of spouting cherry picked facts to drive this brain dead narrative.

      Most of this clown shit is easily debunk with a sjiti online search engine query.

      Cheers champ :)
