There came a time when the Old Gods died! The Brave died with the Cunning! The Noble perished locked in battle with unleashed Evil! It was the last day for them! An ancient era was passing in fiery holocaust!

That's where it was always headed, anyhow. It was baked into the blueprint of Capitalism from the time it was allowed that some people could be so dirt poor as to literally be someone else's capital. Profit from the crushing, miserable poverty of those at the bottom has always been part of the plan ... we've just had increasingly more people and increasingly concentrated wealth, along with increases in technology, education, and communication that make the pattern more clear to more people.
It's true that direct reparations for African Americans is not going to happen, but it's also true that our nation-states and international borders will become more clearly irrelevant, because multi-national corporations only care about the profit margin -- not about flags or anything else.
Be kind to me, or treat me mean
I'll make the most of it, I'm an extraordinary machine
I've seen it with evangelicals when they find that one of their children is gay.
Giving their discrimination a pass and letting them keep doing it without repercussions will NOT change anything.
Also, I don't read The Question as saying why give your money to these people;
I see it as don't anger them or they will do something to you. Again, not an acceptable response to discrimination.Note to homosexuals. Would you really want to eat a wedding cake made by someone who thinks your lifestyle is an abomination? The Help chocolate pie scene. You can have your cake but would you really want to eat it?
