Not that surprising when you consider that plantation owners enslaved and sold their own children. I don’t think we’ve ever been sufficiently horrified about this fact. This level of hypocrisy is light work - ThreadSky

jd vance giving a standing ovation celebrating the “end of dei” with a south asian wife and visibly mixed kids is nasty work, truly diabolical.

Absolutely. I've talked to people who actually think slavery was like gone with the wind. I find such people are beyond reasoning with

The stories we consume shape our imaginations. I wish we took that more seriously.

Somehow I “knew this” but it’s crazy when you hear it phrased that way! Those folks really kept their own blood enslaved!!!

EXACTLY. People truly don't get how white supremacy works.

this is exactly what it made me think of! in both instances, i can’t wrap my mind around actively working against the freedom & liberation of anyone, let alone your children.

i absolutely agree, we haven’t properly unpacked the level of cognitive dissonance & hypocrisy it takes to be this evil.

When you listen to every clip of him talking about women as breeding in child care automatons, it only makes sense that this property perspective would extend to his children as well. They aren't people that he loves: they are symbols of his power and legacy. He sees them as extensions of himself.

That part. Every time ppl act shocked abt an IR couple like that, the plantations are the first thing I think of.

Not to mention, there is an unfortunate amount of anti-Black racism running through the South Asian community.

A simple truth.

Yes. Every single biracial person I know had been subjected to racial abuse by their white families. Many of them by their white mothers. They are just as rotten as their ancestors.

That’s a bold assumption to think he respects her as a woman and not property

The lack of empathy and emotional maturity it would take to do this makes a lot of sense that the same people with the same genetics could be ok with the enslavment and mistreatment of people in mass.
