For modern-day American liberalism to exist and thrive, it requires convincing large segments of the populations that they are victims of rich — typically conservative — white men. This cornerstone of liberal indoctrination comes in many shapes and forms, varying based on which group they are attempting to court.
Lately, we’ve seen the left attempt to paint conservatives as bigoted hate-mongers over the transgender bathroom debate. They have convinced the 0.25% of the population that identifies as transgender that conservatives hate them and just want to make their lives miserable.
The left loves to play the woman card as well. Feminism — the concept that men and women have equal rights and privileges — has been hijacked by radical liberals who believe that free abortions should be available on demand at the taxpayers’ expense. Now, anybody who doesn’t subscribe to modern feminism’s radical, far-left ideology is considered “anti-woman” by the left.
But the left’s favorite card to play is the race card. Liberals have — successfully — convinced most members of the black community that they are victims of white people, and Democrats will solve all of their problems.
When lefties get really desperate to court the African-American vote, they float the idea of slavery reparations. Recently, a speaker at Portland Community College told students that white people owe black people over $20 trillion in slavery reparations.
To watch the (white) speaker discuss why all white people need to empty their pockets to black people regardless of incomes, continue reading on the next page:

No
between 1670 and 1715, more Indians were exported into slavery through Charles Town (now Charleston, South Carolina) than Africans were imported. Brett Rushforth recently attempted a tally of the total numbers of enslaved, and he told me that he thinks 2 million to 4 million indigenous people in the Americas, North and South, may have been enslaved over the centuries that the practice prevailed
The most solid data we found was published in an article in the Root by Henry Louis Gates Jr., a Harvard University historian. Gates cited research by Carter G. Woodson, an African-American historian who died in 1950. He found that in 1830, a total of “3,776 free Negroes owned 12,907 slaves
“At the PEAK of slavery in 1860, only 1.4% of Americans owned slaves. What your history books doesn’t tell you is that 3,000 blacks owned a total of 20,000 slaves the same year.” The post is signed, “Proud Southern Deplorable – Southern Rebel” and goes on to say, “If you’re sick of the race baiting, please LIKE and SHARE.”
