this is the single most ignorant thing I have ever seen. How do you reduce slavery to a cartoon with a genie. Is this girl better off because she has a TV? All of you people complaining about racism against white people are frankly fucking pathetic. If slavery didn't exist neither would "america" which is apparently a "white person country". Much rather be back in africa without a bra than watching mind control propaganda on my hdtv.

Black Americans have BY FAR the best quality of life and advancement opportunities of black people worldwide.

We can all agree slavery is bad, but it's a hard truth that black Americans are better off because of it.

Then do it.

Is this girl better off because she has a TV?

Yes. And asking this question is ignorant and disingenuous. The cartoon made no allegations about what is better, it all came from you, without any thought or consideration, because it is a given that the situation in the last frame is worse for the girl than the one in the first. You are literally lying through your teeth. You don't believe your own bullshit.

You clearly would NOT rather be back in Africa with no bra because you literally have that opportunity and don't take it. Stop lying.

All of you people complaining about racism against white people are frankly fucking pathetic.

And I'm sure you would equally call black people complain about racism fucking pathetic. Oh, right, you have a double standard for everything that is always anti white. You have no integrity or shame. Just anger, ignorant self-righteousness, and hatred.

America would certainly exist without slavery in its history.

The point of the comic (which apparently went over your head) isn't that America isn't a "white person country", but that, despite a checkered past, people descended from slaves now have the best quality of life for people that share their skin color.

I'm pretty sure white people could have managed to pick some cotton if they really had to, it was just easier using slaves. Should have used the Irish instead in my opinion.
