21. They deserve no forgiveness or redemption
Thu Aug 14, 2025, 09:29 AM

Which is my point - and the point of most GenX Black Americans. We are drawing in the millenials and genz.

BTW - I spent my formative years in West Germany. My father was a Green Beret and deeply respected by former German Officers who served time for the actions in WW2. My parents were invited to two of their private drinking clubs - along with other Green Beret officers. They were the people who gave us our German Shepherd Duke during the year of terror (1977).

I was very shocked to learn Herr so and so and Frau so and so were part of Nazi Regime. They were very kind to the tan kids with curly blonde hair.

They were DEFEATED. That never happened to the CSA - whose DNA is in the blood of the current magapubs.

Forgiveness and Redemption will come after every single one of them admits they voted for a Racist Fascist and they denounce him.

Every. Single. One.

I will never forgive anyone who inadvertently put the lives of my nieces and nephews at risk.

This is in the African American Group. And it is here for a reason. What did Kendrick Lamar sing?

"They ain't like us."

They had a chance to do the right thing with the Joyful and Kind Black/Asian Woman - VP Harris.

Because they didn't - they now have to deal with the Mean Black Aunties.

It's a self-inflicted wound.
