oh, and this was done to white people....by which people?

I'm not sure where you're going to that. White people made white people inferior to themselves before white people made black people inferior to themselves....in the contexts of American history.
 
Socially and racially are not even remotely the same. To even infer that it is, shows a complete disconnect from the reality's of the 2 very different situations.

its also just playing games and not taking the topic or thread seriously.

race is a physical attribute that one is born with.

social-inequality is something that can be removed easily.

to compare being poor to being black, is stupid & dishonest.

yeah, but did they make them inferior BECAUSE they were white???????????

no, no they did not. hence the dishonesty and idiocy of your comparison.

How, exactly, do you figure? They were denied the same rights and discounted in the same ways as blacks were. To this day, you still have "white trash" white people: poor, ignorant, breeders with no concept of socially acceptable behavior or hygiene.

yeah, and who forced them into this position due to the color of their skin??

nobody, which is why the comparison is stupid.

Thunder, if you fail to read the entirety of what I post you will always come out looking ignorant and dishonest. I very clearly specified that their inferiority was not based on race. You have neither created an original argument nor made a point by being insulting and childish. Please try again when you actually have a legitimate point to make.

Okay, you want to go there? The tribal leaders in Africa offered up their own men and women to be put into slavery by white men. So there's your equal comparison. These men, women, and children were deemed worthy of servitude and disrespect at the hands of white men by their own black brethren. Good enough for you?

we are talking about black people, who were born black and who's ancestors were made slaves for centuries, for the simple reason that they were black.

you are comparing this situation, to poor whites in the USA. the comparison is insane, as no whites were forced into poverty, illiteracy, and being uneducated simply due to the color of their skin.

please try making an honest & fair comparison.

if you are still comparing poor whites in the USA to African slaves in the USA, your comparison is still crap, as nobody forced whites into that status simply due to their skin color, while blacks suffered under slavery & segregation in the USA for five centuries simply because they were black.

your comparison is crap.

Tell that to the 1/3 of the US that's on welfare or near poverty. You know, the same group you keep claiming can't get out of their financial position?

are they forced into this situation, against their will, due to the color of their skin?

of course not, which is why your comparison between race & class is utter bull****.
 
Lies, false accusations and personal attacks. Is that all you have? No facts? No actual debate points? You are living up to your political leaning of "liberal".
Illiterate.

You need to read a history book. They weren't made slaves because they were black. They were made slaves because their own people sold them dirty friggin' cheap for use in manual labor situations. If the dutch had been selling little white dutch boys at the same price I'll bet we'd have taken them. You missed my entire point and now you're just spewing lies and falsehoods about historical record to make some point.

You're less racist than me, Thunder. You win. You're a wonderful, sympathetic human being completely in touch with the plight of black men. The inferiority of any group in no way relates to the inferiority of blacks, ever, ever, ever.
 
I understand what a double standard is. A big one that comes to mind is "Affirmative Action."
No, you still don't understand it. Illiterate #2.

Five centuries? 1700 to 2000 is three hunderd years. We didn't get slaves here until the end of the 1600s.
Jesus, Thunder. Read a ****ing book.

no, I am correct. its about four and a half centuries:

The first African slaves arrived in the present-day United States as part of the San Miguel de Gualdape colony (most likely located in the Winyah Bay area of present-day South Carolina), founded by Spanish explorer Lucas Vásquez de Ayllón in 1526.

That's so racist.

I am not even going to continue this silliness.

Have yourself a good one.

What does this have to do with the fact that many white slave owners perceived their slaves to be racially inferior?
