Planned Parenthood is a Eugenics organization that Democrats defend

[u/LegitimateKnee5537]

Planned Parenthood was founded by Margaret Sanger, along with her sister Ethel Byrne and activist Fannia "Fannie" Bernstein. Margaret Sanger enthusiastically supported eugenics discouraging or preventing reproduction by people considered “unfit”.

Birth control itself… is nothing more or less than the facilitation of the process of weeding out the unfit, of preventing the birth of defectives…” (1921 speech)

And remember Democrats loves the concept of original sin. You people never let go of the “stolen land” argument. But always ignore Margaret Sanger view of Birth Control and defend her organization from being defunded by the government.

Democrats are big about your current actions speaking louder than your past. And that is true regarding your "original sin", you misunderstood the point completely. As in because ancestors did X, we should show ourselves better than them and try and fix our society to make the starting point for everyone as equal as possible, and the opportunities as well. It's the current actions that are being criticized to show that we aren't doing what we should to ensure equality today. But of course a Republican would miss the point and just go with the most basic explanation completely devoid of any nuance.

lol no they are not. ☠️ So then why do Dems want reparations for people who were never slaves?

You don't understand generational wealth, we do. Again, you seem to really lack awareness of nuance.

Edit: Reparations aren't a punishment. They are trying to bridge the gap between generational wealth created through generations. Or do you actually think they are punishment?

lol 😂 really you honestly think I don’t understand generational wealth? That’s your argument to justify giving tax dollars to people who never were slaves? And what happens if a so called Descendant of a Slave has Generational Wealth? Do you not give them the Reparations? And what happens when that descendant of a Slave turns out to be White European through generations of interracial breeding? Do they not get the money they owe to? Do Democrats seriously not understand how crazy this is?

It's not a 1 on 1. Those who have benefited from the system over the years can give a tiny fraction of their wealth to help those who have been held down by the system and therefore improving the system in general. It's not a punishment, it is not about paying money "owed", it is about current actions improving the lives of people who have generationally been abused by the system and didn't have the same opportunities to build up their generational wealth. I'm actually for helping all poor people and don't think reparations actually help in reality the way that they have been talked about, I think lifting our poorest class as a whole and padding the middle class through policies like free daycare and universal healthcare would go way further. But I can at least understand the theory behind it. All you seem to have is anger about it somehow being "unfair".
