    Shit like this gives me a complex about sharing information about myself. Her and her husband's ancestry is irrelevant and it reveals her as a weirdo. Like the plantation tour company has been owned by the revelation that they lectured a non-racist. It annoys me. In reaction, I don't want to be annoying and I think twice about sharing information about myself unless asked for it.

      For me it's just the irrelevance mixed with telling on herself. "My ancestors never owned slaves" - motherfucker slavery is not about you.

      You, who are so liberal and so humane, who have such an exaggerated adoration of culture that it verges on affectation, you pretend to forget that you own colonies and that in them men are massacred in your name. sartre-pipe

      it really is so fuckin bird brained like "in the antebellum south, white society held blacks in brutal conditions of bondage" "wait but I'm white, and my people didn't do that!" okay then what are you whining about stupid.

        Their own ancestors may not have owned slaves, but they willingly participate in American whiteness and reap the benefits thereof.

        It shatters the idea that they are inherently good people, and instead ANYONE is capable of good or evil. Adolf Hitler could have had a long lost sibling that's the nicest guy in the world, and Fred Rogers could have a cousin that is a Military Industrial Complex profiteer. Which if you believe in free will, would be totally easy to accept. But CHUDs don't believe in free will, they believe in a caste system and to them, if they are related to people that horrible, then THEY are the ones that deserve to be the low man on a totem pole.
