Nikki Haley, this silly, lying *****, back peddled on her slavery response by saying that god ended slavery (he didn't), the end of slavery produced freedom of speech & liberty (it didn't), everyone had the ability to go wherever they want & be whatever they want (Black people did NOT).
She's a liar

God heard of pleas of the enslaved for centuries, but didn't freenthem.
Ebslavers bastardized "god's word" to enslaved and brutalize Black people.
Lincoln was assassinated because he agreed to end slavery.
Slavery ended because people fought and died for it, not due to compassion from enalavers.

Enslavers received reparations.
Black people were forced to endure Jim Crow.
Fuck Nikki Haley and every person who perpetrates the lies about how slavery ended and how enslavers treated the human beings they captured, raped, brutalized, killed, bought and sold like cattle.

What has happened to Black Americans since the end of slavery is retribution for daring to want the right to pursue happiness & liberty that is guaranteed by the US Constitution.
Whites today didn't enslave my people but their ancestors did.
Their ancestors built wealth on the backs of my people.

Poor white people were (and still are) used by wealthy whites to enlarge the divide between Blacks and whites.
Poor white people living in trailers sitting on cinder blocks and driving scooters for mobility while collecting social security, and flying t*ump flags, AMAZES me.

Wealthy whites don't give a fuck about poor whites. They just use them.
The #AffordableCareAct is an excellent recent example. Healthcare should be a right. The #AffordableCareAct would have provided the opportunity for every American to be covered, affordably, BUT

wealthy white folks said, not so fast! They elevated profits over health.
They lobbied republikkklans in congress to fight single-payer.
After it was passed, the GQP controlled House voted about 60 x's to repeal the #ACA . They tried to end the healthcare act that enabled millions to have coverage!

At some point, folks, including far-left Dems, will stop the bullshit and fight for an America that serves ALL people, not just a few.
Voters must stop being lazy.
People who don't do shit #ForThePeople materialize the year before the general election for potus. It's a grift!

We have got to do better.
Voting doesn't solve all problems but voting for and electing the right people, will help resolve a LOT of problems.
Voting for and electing the wrong people will result in harms that will take generations to repair.
No to trump.
No to Haley.
No to West.
