EVERYTHING WUZ COTTON

blacks were not necessary for the advancement of whites.

Nobody alive today was a slave owner or a slave. Guilt is not inherited.

explain africa then

To play the devil's advocate, compound interest is a thing.

How about the fact that only 1.4% of Americans owned slaves?

How did the other 98.6% get along? Oh right, just fine

Fuck off nigger

picking cotton wasn't exactly life changing for whites

Slavery slowed down technological advancement by providing an inefficient alternative to the industrial revolution, therefore not only were blacks not necessary they were a bad crutch.

Niggers are retarded and only hold back economic progress by lowering wages and destroying capital

Slavery itself is very bad for the. The economy as it rewards human labor over inventing labor saving devices. Rome had the exact same problem

>using Jewish invented heresy

The white man was smarter and stronger?

So I guess that means blacks owe white people even more for not only bringing them to a 1st world country, educating them, dying to free them, putting up with their criminality, all while shitting all over the country that white people founded.

Black people owe white people literally everything.

My ancestors never owned slaves. They were essentially like slaves instead. Yet our situation is quite okay.

I can't refute this.

Mixing with whites is bad for black people.

Black people should be given their own country, and they can run it as they like without worrying about white people

Alabama had the highest GDP per capita anywhere on planet Earth in 1850

this, the south is still not as well off as the north to this day in an economic sense.
But liberal propaganda right?

At a point. Slavery was VERY useful for a while and made America VERY rich. Without slavery, the Colonies would not have had the wealth to fund or even consider the Revolutionary War. You could even say slavery helped cause it. By make the Colonists very rich and then pissed off they got taxed without representation.

Working class whites benefited from the system because it reminded them they weren't niggers.

...

And did that capita include the nigger population?

A.) Slavery arguably slowed down technological advances.
B.) Blacks didn't free themselves, a whole lot of white people died for it.
C.) There are numerous programs to help blacks in almost everyway, but they seem to be going down or plateauing in most metrics, why would more programs help?

>the US's agricultural economy isn't what cemented its status as a world power
>the tobacco and cotton industry weren't wholly dependent on slave labor for 200 years
>the south didn't fight tooth and nail to preserve slavery because its abolishment would mean their entire workforce would be illegal
>they didn't find new and interesting ways to get away with continuing to pay slaves pitiful wages for 100 years after slavery was abolished

Blacks were not the only race brought to the US as slaves, there were others like Chinese Slaves to build railroads, etc. these people are doing fine even better than many native europeans.

Feel free to try enslaving me back. Go for it.

I like how this depicts that we somehow "stole" greatness from black people. Like without them we would be nothing.

They were literally tools for us to do monotonous shit because we had better things to do. We didn't need them for greatness, we just used them for it. If they were the stronger ones, they wouldn't have gotten enslaved and conquered by white people in the first place.

The analogy is retarded.

Lol no

The slavery made a few southern aristocrats who were disproportionately Jewish, wealthy while the common southern white was dirt poor

Nothing is worse for the working class than a bunch of subhuman niggers in the country working for nothing

Well done brother

>>the US's agricultural economy isn't what cemented its status as a world power
>proceed to get BTFO by the Union's industrialized economy

pretty much no. america was wealthy albeit not really as wealthy as western European powers at this time because many of those powers had completely destroyed their economies fighting each other for decades on end

The British Crown wasn't taxing the commoners, retard.

so the white person represents the democrats right?

Two major arguments exist. First, slavery was not a net gain on Western economies. See the link below for further details (the Economist is liberal btw):

Second,
>You are the entirety of society, both past and present.
>Your individual upbringing exactly mirrors the progression of society.
>You are literally fucking a white male.
See pic related.

>would not have had the wealth to fund or even consider the Revolutionary War
>what we're loans from various merchants that funded the war during it
>what was the whiskey tax after the war

It would have been partially true during slavery, but not even close in the modern world.

three fifths of them

>You have 10 seconds to refute this.

Easy.

None of these characters are alive today.

If the colonies had stayed poor, under developed, and economically stagnate, its people wouldn't have had the means or desire to rebel. Washington, Jefferson, etc, the leaders of the revolution built their wealth on slavery and it was that same wealth that they earned that gave them confidence to go up against their King when they felt the unfair grasp of the taxman.

u dont balance the teeter totter by putting an even fatter child on the other side

False premise. I, as an individual, have never benefitted from slave labor.

Obviously it would've been LESS likely to happen if they were poorer.

we destroyed everything slavery built in the civil war.

done.

The southern agricultural economy is what held the south back and kept it a feudalists style shithole

The whole point of nigger slavery was to replace the land bonded serfs in Europe. Nothing is worse for an economy than slavery

The aristocrats in the South fought to keep slavery because it meant free money

The lower class southerners fought because of a sense of duty and honor

>The US
>White

Nah the US was easy for France to use as a proxy war to exhaust the English. it would have happened eventually. in the time of Washington cotton was non existent it was Chesapeake tobacco farming and rice farming in the south. and the money that gained was meager. in some periods timber production was more profitable even.

The industrial revolution, and all other hallmarks of white domination in commerce and the economy did not involve blacks at all. In fact, most people who benefitted from the exploitation of blacks were other blacks or other Non-whites.

they just picked cotton omg, they didn't contribute shit to anything

Taiwan has been knockin it outta the park lately.

exactly. at least, if you DID, you benefit just as much as the black people who live in society alongside you

The crown was taxing all imports you fucking retard

But the real reason for the revolution was the lack of representation in Parliament not the taxes themselves, faggot

Quads confirm.

>all whites in US were slave owners before slavery was abolished.

> All whites that immigrated to US after slavery was abolished were slave owners.

evil whites saps iq with their brains. they control peoples brain and steal all their iq.

>>Needs citation

What if you're Irish american and your family immigrated here in the early 1900's? Are you still responsible for slavery?

Sports Scholarships

Correct. It is a universally known fact racism disappeared in the South after 1865

picking cotton for my shirt =/= building the american empire.

>west african civilisation existed for 2000 years before the slave trade began
>still tribal in nature
wew lad

Slave owners were mostly jewish.
Only up to 5% of white homes owned one or more slaves in America throughout the 19th century.
Up to 1/3rds of Jewish families owned slaves throughout the same period.

The slave ships were owned and captained by Jews.
Slave markets would be postponed if they occurred on the Sabbath, though Sunday was fine.
And even if we ignore the Jews, one of the biggest slave owners in global history was a black ex-slave running his plantations in the colonies.

Meanwhile, white Christians are solely responsible for halting slavery.
One of the biggest slave empires in the world was the Turkish empire, the Arabs still hold slaves and just this week a report showed up about active slave trade in Libya.
Chinamen are slaves of their state in the same way Soviet peasants were, not to mention North Korea. You could claim they know no better due to being indoctrinated from an early age, but then a black slave born in a plantation wouldn't know any different either.

Happy Easter.

OF CORS U IS, PAY UP WHITY

It really has always surprised me that the very people who one moment will tell you that a extreme minority of whites made large profits from cotton slavery and that the money somehow trickled down and helped all whites so we need affirmative action are the exact same people who loydly scoff at trickle down economics and reagan

toplel

Washington and Jefferson were just southern aristocrats

They didn't fund the revolution at all. The revolution was funded largely by state banks, international lenders, and opponents of the British Empire (France)

>King
>He thinks honks the I Ng had any real power in post glorious revolution Britain

Kek everyone laugh at this turbo fag

Parliament was the true power in Britain at the time and they refused to allow American colonies any MPs

Less than 2% of colonial white americans owned slaves.

>the US's agricultural economy isn't what cemented its status as a world power

No, it wasn't. The delusion that it was contributed a lot to the Confederacy's fate. In practice it took English just a couple of years to mostly replace Southern imports and that did not cause a serious crisis. What created US' status as world power was rapid industrialization.

Hi guys
Have we a study to determine which of the human sub races has the most evolved from sapiens sapiens
Seems obvious that it's the nordic swedish archetype but who knows ?

Thnx

>Black people should be given their own country, and they can run it as they like without worrying about white people
>what is Liberia
I'd be all for it honestly though, send them all back to Africa.

I thought the slavs evolved from that. And the Nordic people from a variation of.

Not an argument

That black person and black people(slaves) did not build shit. They contributed less then nothing to greater society and only serve to hinder progress and drag everyone else down.

The idea is that you don't need a better steam engine when it's more expensive than 50 slave boys, maintenence included.
That's argued for the fall of Rome as well. They knew steam could be used to propel something but it was just a toy to them. Exploring any other application was prohibitively expensive.

Good catch

The whole point of Feudalism is that wealth doesn't trickle down aside from a few otherwise worthless luxury good markets

That doesn't as the whole point of the enlightenment and the rebellion against aristocracy

...

more likely whites will have to have a sepratist movement. I dont like the idea of ceding anymore of the earth to brown people, but it may be our only option.

nothing is holding negros back but themselves and their degenerate gang culture

This comic is based on a false premise, namely that whites and blacks were on equal footing when slavery began. They weren't. Whites were already "priviledged" before slavery began. Otherwise, how do you explain them enslaving blacks? In spite of this, an important question to ask yourself is, "Who gave the white man his priviledge?" Protip: it wasn't black people.

That being said, a more accurate comic would start with the white man on the ledge and then later have the shackles removed from the black man.

Amerifag on vacation?

France really wanted it to happen, so that helped more so than a handful of aristocrats that didn't actually fund the war in anyway.

>muh slavery
yeah, because whites have never been enslaved. oh wait, yes they fucking have.

Niggers vastly overestimate their contribution to the country

Every immigrant thats become successful after slavery is disproof.

You forgot to show the black lighting things on fire and looting shit.

The Confederates got destroyed because they were such a backwards agricultural feudalist shithole

Similar to the Russian Empire when they fought Germany in WW1

I can't refute this :(. Now that it's explained so clearly how blacks helped white people develop higher IQ's and lower disposition to violence on a genetic level.

None of my ancestors lived in the United States while slavery existed. All of my family members in the US stem from immigration to the United States during the 20th century.

Most people who lived in the north had nothing to do with slavery and often opposed it leading up to the civil war. The majority of the non-slave population of the United States was concentrated in the traditional Northern United States (this is also why the Union won the war, along with having most of the manufacturing).

Even if your ancestor was a slave owner, we don't live in a society where you are responsible for their digressions and crimes. Slavery is America's great national shame, but it ended over a century ago after Union soldiers numbering in the hundreds of thousands won the US Civil War with their lives.

Zimbabwe hasn't had a very good rate I guess.

This is the most Jewish thing I've read today.

"Individualism" is a core value of enlightenment, a thing that the liberals in the US strongly believe in, yet they don't give a shit about it when accusing whites for their past.
I mean it doesn't say that you shouldn't judge a person/group based on their past?

Whites didn't enslave blacks they bought black slaves from Africa from the actual black "kings"

Was slavery Greece's national shame? Rome's national shame?

Every civilization in the world practiced slavery at some point. It's not uniquely white, nor uniquely american. It's still ongoing in Africa and the Middle East.

A black guy has never helped no matter how many times I've asked.
>worked with Italians a lot

*bought from Jews who bought them from kangz

They can always go back where they came from.

Slavery was still bad for the Roman and greek economy

Liberals dont believe in individualism they are a collective movement. Most of their followers dont know the weight their outcome will have.

>tfw OP
>tfw my ID starts with "cUm"

What did Sup Forums mean by this?

The United States IS helping black people.

>give black people thousands of scholarships just for being black
>let black people into prestigious colleges despite having substandard GPAs just because
>give black people 40% of all welfare
>give black people 25% of all food stamps
>make it illegal for schools, hospitals, churches, public areas, and businesses to refuse service to black people
>create the DARE Program to stop black people from killing themselves with drugs
>hold gun exchange programs every year in an attempt to curb gang violence
>create Kwanzaa so they can celebrate their heritage
>create an entire month dedicated to 'black history' whatever the fuck that means
>Hollywood pumps out inspirational movies about race like We Wuz NASA, 12 Years a Slave, The Blind Side, The Butler, Finding Forrester, etc. in an attempt to inspire the black community to excel
>pump millions of dollars into rehabilitation programs for ex-convicts

With all this shit, you're going to try to pretend that it's white people keeping the black man down?

Ancient Greece was conquered by Rome and many other entities after this and Rome fell to invasion from various powers, while the United States still exists as an unbroken continuation of the government which existed with slavery.

Regardless of this, comparing a 19th century government to Classical Antiquity governments doesn't really make too much sense.

THEY STOLE OUR JAYNYUSS
