Black American votes should count twice

Trump supporters for some reason think their vote should count extra, so I don't see the problem. Why do you guys only support one—person, one—vote when it's a minority or a democrat?
 
A better solution is that anyone that buys into that moronic shit should be able to sacrfiice their own voting rights. And they could do that just before they sell all their belongings and property, give it to BLM, and then take their ass back to their native country.

The last time someone started a thread about this, the point was to deny the existence of systemic racism.

Is that the point this time, or are we discussing just its idiocy even granting the existence of systemic racism?

Of course systemic racism existed and to some degree still exists. Combating racism by giving its victims greater voting power is a regressive and foolish solution. It is right up there with openly advocating that Jews should by law be given control over all financial and political institutions in Western Democracies in order to better combat antisemitism.

Hey, I'm not defending the idea. But there was another thread about this, except its maker used it as a springboard to attack the concept of systemic racism.
 
Its a dumb idea but it looks like shock jock in article form to get people to pay attention to an issue.

The Votes of Black Americans Should Count Twice

Vote reparations would empower us to replace oppressive institutions with life-affirming structures of equality.

Brilliant.

Maybe instead we could just have white people's vote only count for 3/5ths. That's never been tried before.

What if you are only half black or one quarter white? This is just nonsense.

The point is to point out that progressives think such things. It dovetails nicely with how racist the left has become in its thinking.

I dunno. We’re kind of a shithole despite having the greatest economy ever and all the guns that buys. Maybe white folks have fubar’d enough and this is the way to go.

The author is not advocating equality, he is advocating exceptionalism.

But, it'll never pass constitutional muster or happen, so I can't feel anything other than a bored "Meh...whatever".

White supremacism is no less idiotic than any other race-based ideology, policy, or law.

Agreed. Now we just gotta get white folks to give up the belief.
