Coleman Hughes: Reparations Debate 

You sound like some ridiculous white supremacist! No race of people want to think of themselves as victims, but if in fact you have been victimized in every sense of the word, don't try to tell me it's something else. This country (America) has victimized people of color as if it was a sacred religion !

@@hubertlynch9931 make it plan sir!

@@hubertlynch9931 you mean to say only black ppl are victimized? What you mean to say is only black ppl continue to live with a victimhood mentality, while other victimized whites, brown and yellow folks continue to move forward to earn a better life and refuse to be a victim of the past.

That's not true

@@hubertlynch9931 I like how you, and I'm assuming you're white, tried to tell a person of color how to feel about these conditions. Just like a liberal to try and control a black individuals emotions.

Dude's cool as a cucumber. 😎😎😎

This is rightfully a heated debate. Seems small hearted to expect a debate about racial injustice to be be “cool.” I think it’s easy to be cool when one is arguing that an injustice doesn’t exist or is exaggerated because in your eyes folks haven’t been wronged. Stakes are low

Caldera Blackwood No. you calmly make your point, back it with reasoning and facts and don’t just emotionally chalk everything up to Racism. Because that’s the go to when confronted by facts.

Pouch King I don’t see why being emotional about this and being logical are mutually exclusive. Facts were brought up here. And there’s plenty of research on systemic racism + reparations if you’re interested. Wondering what you thought was illogical and chalked up to racism

Caldera Blackwood emotion is fine when it’s well placed, not when it’s used in an attempt to trump reason, data, or as if it’s a point within in self that deserves any recognition. Notice when after Coleman lays out the facts of why Zimbabwe economy failed he was met with emotion “are you kidding me”, that’s ridiculous”, those were cheered responses that dismissed his well articulated explanation of facts even though they had none themselves. It speaks to how dishonest, naive, and ignorant most have become about issues and halts public discourse from being productive.

Because his intellect is in the clouds while everyone else is hacking through bushes.

And now you see why the left is vapid horse shit

Because they cannot address his points.

Because they don’t have a point.

They want compensation for their ancestors suffering and vengeance for their shortcomings which are most likely due to having a victim mentality which are blamed on racism. Even after huge cheques and or chunks of land are given they will always hold slavery over white people. Even whites that have nothing to do with or are related to slave owners.

If the stupidity continues. I’m moving to the Bahamas

I can relate. Its not just that dumb people are everywhere ruining society for everyone else, but its also that they seemingly can never be changed and they can be easily led. More and more I'm seeing why the "red pilled" people say the things they say.

It's also ironic that Coleman was basically saying 'I'm a privileged person, and I don't need these services, so I'd be happy to defer them to someone else.' and somehow *THAT* doesn't get applause from lefties? I mean, what do these people even stand for?

Scott Kay they stand for victimisation, the democratic media fed them this narrative that if they don’t succeed at anything, example being Job application it’s fully linked to their skin colour, they never analyse the application to see why they didn’t successfully get the job. This basically indoctrinates them to believing they don’t have the equal opportunity as other races when they genuinely do, it’s a democratic ideology fed to get more votes and dehumanise the less educated black demographic.

@@thescoon1 it destroys the narrative that a person of that skin color could have the privileges Coleman has, and takes away power from people who have been saying "Give us power/money...we're the only ones who can make your life better, because your skin color will always keep you back". Coleman shatters the narratvie that skin color is the only thing that matters, and helps substantiate the claim that even if your ethnic group as awhole is more disadvantaged, individuals within it (and enough individuals doing it does impact the group/collective, right?) can succeeded, gain those privileges, and pass it on to their next generation.....not saying easy, or fair etc etc...just possible......but a lot of power is tied up in the perception it's not.

Unfortunately for them, Coleman brought with him something that gives him what his opponents might consider to be an unfair advantage: a human brain

Exactly

@John Coppers I agree with your point, I would add what Coleman Hughes stated that reparations means different things to different people. So I think that 8% might not be entirely accurate. At the least it could change especially in light of recent events. John McWhorter also rightly points out(IMO)(at least in years past)that reparations have already been given in the form of social welfare, affirmative action,to use your example, etc. I think this argument also appears relevant.

@John Coppers just how smart is he? he colonized your nation (and still keeps it crippled to this day), enslaved your ancestors for generations on a land he stole and then blessed you with a lethal amount of racism, and after all that, he still managed to convince you not to demand your reparations. made you desire his wealth and intellect... got you on his side. just close enough to keep you calm feeling good about yourself. just not close enough to threaten his power. bet you wish you were that smart :)

@John Coppers i think you are that smart. congrats! you made it :)

if you're white, your opinion doesn't count. apparently.

Well said!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

So true. It's not about feelings it's about reality. Regardless of which side one may be on.

@@skinblossom5958 Too late, honey.

Russian bots are all over youtube.

Boom!

So Coleman Hughes says in the same breath, that holocaust survivors were given reparations by the German Government, while saying its impossible to establish whether reparations are due. The US government collected taxes on unpaid extorted labor and directly earned money from slavery. That creates a debt that is due. How you pay it out is separate question.

👏👏👏👏 thank you!!

Imagine Ben Shapiro and Coleman Hughes against all of the congress lol

Maine Blanco his victim complex comment was clearly mean for loosers like you, you weeb.

@@Kommiekiller people like you are always in minorities business when it doesn't even concern you. We aren't victims, our ancestors were victims. They were beat, castrated, lied to, experimented on giving rise to the current medical systems, given as bonds to start colleges and banking companies people attend today. Jp Morgan and Harvard for example. Our families were broken apart and records of our history were literally burned to nothing, they took our identities i can't even go back more than 2 maybe 3 generations, they called us black which has absolutely no standing in law, called us 3/5ths of humans just for voting edge, don't even teach us our actual history in schools, took our languages. Then after they freed blacks they discriminated against them for another hundred years, barred them from voting either through terrorism or through policies, couldn't even walk on the same sidewalk as whites sometimes, restricted educational opportunities, barred them from communities, excluded them from work unions, couldn't get bank loans, couldn't get decent medical care. Then when they were segregated and made a way for themselves the government would literally bomb their communities, took all the good paying jobs out of the communities, flooded them with drugs and guns but allowed foreigners to occupy those same neighborhoods with drug stores and abortion clinics with bank loans they denied blacks. Only stating facts would come of as claiming victomhood to a complete dotard like yourself. That's why cowards like you never use your real names and then cry when someone calls you a name. You're not even man enough to own your racism proudly. Little bitch.

Coleman aint even black he is puertican

Because he is very intelligent and they others know they can't compete.

No. Hughes is the one with no valid argument against our country finally dealing with the elephant in the room...

Yeah notice they attack him, and not what he's saying

@@reneethomas5937 yeah thats why he calmly dominates their ignorant opinions with rational arguments. His IQ matches 3 of theirs combined

He's not African-American! He's a fraud and trying to come up off the topic of reperations!

And stupid

They always will be. Progress is a white idea.

@@GJC-lh4mi made me think of the Bad Religion song. Which is relevant

sounds like you didn't need high school in the first place. you're critical thinking ability surpasses most college students

@cwr8618 thats very kind of you. I'm a trucker by trade. Coleman's podcast/videos are among my favorite to enjoy. I also enjoy Thomas Sowell and finished John McWhorter audiobook "white racism". I enjoyed it emmensly.

@@ArkansasInfidel great authors for sure. truckers are the underappreciated vascular network of our societies. tough life but necessary

I had a highschool teacher like that. I think hes still on the bus ...

I was on that bus and still on it, still wearing the same tye dyed shirt too. Peace signs and rainbows abound and can't forget the black light.

Dude thinks he’s native. lol 😂

Shut your stupid a$$ up. That is the dumbest nonsense I've ever heard

@@ndthomp No, Mr. Thornberry. Let him speak. He might be on to something here.

@@stumbybeenbo5791 but he's not, he's selling out his own race. We don't want money from whites. Most of them are broke and can only support themselves. We want money from the government for constantly using slave labor, reneging on treaties, breaking apart families and forcibly moving blacks from country to country

Yeah not all skinfolk are kin folk, he and Candace Owens would make very interesting offspring. Unfortunately for the child it would become suicidal.

@@ndthomp Can you elaborate, or are you nothing but empty headed insults?

Until there is agreement about what terms mean, it’s very important that nothing is started. Otherwise one side will use language to deceive the other side.

The supposed Native American with blue eyes is now an expert on everything? He made little sense the entire time he spoke.

I think what he was trying to say is, hypothetically, if I am Johnny's cousin what can I do for my "enslaved" cousin. Regardless, hypotheticals are not arguments. The guy clearly could not manifest any kind of thought beyond hyperbole and hypotheticals.

@@RegularCupOfJoe I thought he meant that the snow plow was a metaphor for Johnny clearing a path towards reparations and what does he do to help.

And the genocided them when they became socialist

Why are white farmers in a black African nation? Prior to whites colonizing Zimbabwe I'm sure the natives were fine.

His point had nothing to do with whether the white farmers got reparations or not. They tripped on that because they only see issues in terms of "that other person got something I want" and group identity. This is tribalism in concept. The point he was making is that if you burn the system, you go back to the stone age and you starve and end up back in petty wars and tribal skirmishes where people kill each other over silly nonsense... Exactly like has happened all over Africa for literally thousands of years, long before the white Europeans even existed as a major seafaring society, much less set foot in Africa. Tribalism is the true enemy, but they welcome it like a sweet liver.

So they gave them money to do nothing? How did that end their starvation? How dumb are you people???

The real problem is that these people have been around for thousands of year feeding themselves now they can't like most of us in this world. We've been depended on a market for basic and when it come to basic farming these people can't do it. If you know anything about farming modern or otherwise, there has to be an infrastructure to support it with money seed and you have to plant at a certain time. Institution have to want to work with you. I'm sure the money people in Zimbabwe couldn't wait to see them fail.

You can Equally say that about conservatives they can be no less Emotional than liberals," Make America Great again" is nothing more than an appeal to Vanity

@@leebennett1821 No I don't believe you can. The mere essence of the left is driven by a small number of radicals that operate purely on emotion. These types are the ones that inhabit twitter and can't be reasoned with because a differing opinion is not allowed. You will be labeled a racist, transphobic, white-supremacist, etc. Being able to logically argue your position means being willing to possibly admit you are wrong and the left simply will not do that.

@GLADIATOR SHI'AR MVP Well, I can have a conversation with those on the right and have disagreements. Try going on twitter and disagree with someone about the science on transgenders or bring up any of the statistics about black violence. You will be banned from twitter and doxxed within minutes.

Would you believe that Coleman leans left pretty darn hard? In other videos he talks passionately about the U.S. needing a less punitive criminal justice system, major healthcare changes, stated that paying reparations directly to some of the older people who lived directly under Jim Crow would be a good idea, among many other things.

@@Regdren I believe he is intelligent enough to have multi-faceted opinions about most things including politics and not embrace the herd mentality that permeates today's political landscape.

Welcome man👊💪

Amen brother!! American Mexican here too and Larry Elder, Thomas Sowell and Candace Owens made me switch as well.

Why? Coleman isn't conservative/ libertarian, he's actually liberal. If you think switching political sides is intellectual growth, you're mistaken.

@@michaeleverest3487 someone's salty 😩

Same bro

So funny huh?

@La Verne Give it to who? Who owes it? How do you measure what value was created? How do you estimate the inflation? How do you factor the contributions? It's so easy to "reparations are owed" but even if it was granted, you can't tell me who gets it, how it's distributed, how much and who pays for it. It's just virtue signaling and greed. If anyone was serious about reparations, they would come up with a document with detailed analysis and research that can show how they came to the ask, what factors are considered, how it's going to be distributed, etc. etc. Until such a proposal is made formal, there's nothing to talk about. And let's not forget, if it ever did get through, you wouldn't get it anyway because that kind of decision would open the door for Native Americans to request reparations and they have an even greater claim.

@La Verne ??? I don't have control of that. Try it again.

You can make fun of them because most white people already got their "virtual" checks and like to make smug remarks.

But we're all supposed to pay for it or, as some other idiot here said, the government is supposed to pay. The government doesn't have any money that it hasn't first taken from us.

Native Americans did receive reparations from the Obama administration more than 4 billion

J cox and look where they are now. Their situation couldn’t be worse. Pumping millions of dollars doesn’t do any good , you have to have structure and leadership.

That was wrong too.

@@jcox2578 Also wrong.

The Irish were not slaves.

Really? They "doesn't"?

@@skineyemin4276 an educated person would know why he doesnt

@@ndthomp Well, some of those people on that panel "don't" represent him (or her).

Race baiter.

People make fun of ebonics/Aave and then talk about how lit something is. How something is so ratchet. How they ain't got or what the "be" doing. Our dialect has different rules, ur misunderstanding doesn't justify debasing and speaks to your concept of language and who gets to influence it. Shakespear among many other white writers literally invented words for convenience. Languages grow and change. Don't come for us without an invitation.

Thelma Lewis then white people will really own you, because they can say Themla wouldn’t have anything without the white man giving her reparations so we own her success

Begging the white man instead of building... SMH.🤦🏾‍♀️

This coleman kids a clown

And wasted 200 years instead of building up their community

I think it should exist. I would recommend parent training, better education, psychological support, college scholarships, anything to stop black on black crimes.

@@chrisno6669 That's great as long as contributions are voluntary and the $$$ goes to the people who need it the most. Not some city slush fund that corrupt politicians steal from.

@@dbjkatz exactly. Directly for the people. When i was teen, i had a mentor who taught me the right path. She would take us to Galveston and other "classy" events that we wouldn't even think of going. All on her dime. She wanted to teach us that we could have fun without doing drugs and running the streets. That support really did help me. Finance and saving would also be an awesome skill. And trips outside the US. To expose them to other environments.

It SHOULD have happened immediately after the slaves were freed. Our government should not have gone back on their word. But it is way too late for any of that now. We need to teach individual responsibility again. Plenty of time has passed. Make something of yourselves.

@@chrisno6669 I can agree with that. No handouts, just opportunities. Because what you addressed are huge issues, but I also believe anyone in poverty should be offered that. Education is the key in my opinion to lift others out of poverty or help at least. You can help everyone unfortunately, because some will resist...

Is there anyone that can read people's minds? Can you use correct grammar to get your point across?

@@TimeMachine7773 Maybe if historically we hadn't been systematically denied equal access to education in this country we would be more grammatically correct.

@@TimeMachine7773 no and no 😆 😆 😆

Or she could have paid attention in school. I got a government paid for book just like she did. Clearly she cared about her education based off of her response. It only hurts her not being able to convey her thoughts on paper. Almost everything she reads has an editor and most things stated on tv and in movies are grammatically correct, sentences under ten words are not beyond her own ability. I grew up in one of the worst states educationally, we all are taught the same thing, but if you don't care you will be worse off than those that do. Don't make excuses.

@@TimeMachine7773 Why are you so concerned about my education? I have a right to comment regardless if I use correct grammar or not. My comment is only a comment, not an essay. If you want to edit my comment that is fine.

Charles Brown Word

Take responsibility for something we never did funny. There are no living slave holders so

@Nevermore Universal income would just inflate the current problem we have now. Wealth distribution would still be exactly the same. If you legitimately wanted to solve the socioeconomic problem that's disproportionately affecting black people you have to look at two things first, crime statistics and academic performance. Both of those things can be improved from inside the home but requires a steady culture change and return to the nuclear family. Government policies in the 60s that subsidized single parent households is what has led to this.

Mussa Ibragimov And all of them wrong. They all believed that the human desire for justice was greater than its desire for ownership and that everyone could simply become government property. History has proven overwhelmingly that this isn’t possible.

Because they purposely put up people on the panel who don't know what they're talking about.

The entire U.S. court system exists to repair those who have been damaged whether it be civil damages or punishment with restitution. The damage to ADOS has been done and should be repaired. And just like in a suit, you go after the party with the deepest pockets because you know they can pay. Cut the check....If hughes didn't have that European accent, no one would be listening to his dumb ass.

Ben Chapple. This just sounds as if you're trying to put out a smoke screen. America owes reparations. America passed legislation to support slavery.

@@halbleavy9900 exactly ....the government sanctioned it...now the government must pay compensation period...

That kind of crap has been happening for decades. Doesn't do anything. External solutions always fail.

The mayans need reparations from the Aztecs.

The Jews got Millions from the US Treasury for a Holocaust that took place in Europe caused by then US enemies, I think Germany got a check from the US as well after they lost the war. Plus Israel got $38 Billion Dollars from the US Government to boot!

African Americans got a Federal Promissory Note after the Civil War, and I would like to cash that check!

Unfortunately, African Americans are not any of these groups of people. What I mean is the fact there has always been a double-standard

1bikeman OnDaMoV the Marshall plan was not reparations. It was purely economic benefit for America. It included things like huge amounts of cigarettes to boost demand for American tobacco products for example.

Wrong, it was Tuvoc.

😂

Because he is there to antagonize. He is no MLK or Malcolm X. He don’t don’t even sound like them.

They were all over the map with no focus in the discussion and worse , no one seemed to nail down what the objective is. First , none of these folks were or are slaves in America. They were all born as free. No folks today who are American citizens are slave owners. Let's keep it just that simple. You ( we ) can never demand reparations of people who were never slave owners to folks who were never slaves. The discussion should easily stop there. But instead we have a this idea raised by just a very small handful of people that don't even know what kind of reparations should be accomplished. Furthermore , I'm pretty confident these people are well off , comfortable in life and have the total access to the American dream.

IT WOULD NOT BE IF SOMEONE WHIPPED YOUR ASS AND MADE YOU A SLAVE

@@mikekaroules2820 America pays Israel billions in reparations to this day for something that occurred in Germany. They also pay billions of dollars a year to destroy other nations around the world via military spending. Billions already being wasted can be redirected to restore and repair the damage and trauma done to American descendants of those enslaved. The damage is beyond just slavery, America's history has been geared to the destruction of black progress: Jim Crow, black codes, lynching, counter intelligence programs, false imprisonment, exaggerated sentencing, unfair policing, taxation without representation, and the list goes on. If you are against blacks just say that directly and don't beat around the bush. You cannot deny that no other group in America has had government opposition like the black race has had through out the existence of America. Cut the check.

Sizzle Wrap it's not all about slavery! It's about wealth stealing! The traitors of the Civil War are not suppose to be rich! Not back then! And not now! Why are they rich now? Because African Americans were betrayed for helping win the Civil War! And then the government created laws and policies for the Slaves and their future family members to keep taking their money and resources so that the rich Southern traitors can live a life with mass wealth. The debt is due. The evidence and data is overwhelming. You don't need slavery to prove the point that reparations are due. Proving racism was an inforced system by the government is all we need. Too easy to do
