You are wasting your time. @basso believes his people had it just as bad. They pulled themselves up by their bootstraps. They worked hard for everything they had. Guess what? No one is ****ing denying that. Here is the HUGE part he is missing. They had no one actively discriminating against them and trying to stop them from doing that. Maybe one day he and people like him will get the point they sorely miss every single time they try to make that ****ing bootstrap argument.
And even the Irish, who faced a lot discrimination and weren't considered part of the "whites", got to eventually become a "white". Not to mention those dirty Polacks....
They say he didn't have an enemy His was a greatness to behold He was the last surviving progeny The last one on this side of the world He measured half a mile from tip to tail silver and black with powerful fins They say he could split a mountain in two That's how we got the Grand Canyon Some say they saw him at the Great Lakes Some say they saw him off the coast of Florida My mother said she saw him in Chinatown but you can't always trust your mother.
you brought it up. and my ancestors would have been delighted to have had running water, much less a drinking fountain.
Just interesting you brought up their ability to not be slaves which is a degree worse than being indentured or not having multiple generations legally discriminated against. Privilege for the win. No different than the white trash Jan 6ers that you brought up. Have you caught up on the Dominion/Fox News or still intentionally being ignorant?
Please won't you sing me A thing that will bring me right into the sky If you would play it Just lay it down, say, it will help me get by Something to move me Remove me and grove me, you want to know why? I'm so tired of oldies And moldies and goldies, that I want to cry Can you play free Or in three or agree to attempt something new The people need you A seed that will lead to a hit by Varese
