In the early hours of the Tulsa Race Massacre on May 31st 1921, 44 years before the civil rights movement brought an end to mandatory segregation, a Mob of White Supremacist Terrorists gathered around a Jail where a young black man was accused of a crime but the local sheriffs were protecting him by barricading the entrance to the floor he was held on, and a group of black men gathered in counter-protest but many were convinced to head home when the local law enforcement asked them, claiming they had the situation under control. Unfortunately, the situation escalated when an older white supremacist terrorist attempted to disarm a black counter-protestor by force, leading to a large gunfight that went on into the night and eventually the black men’s retreat into the segregated black community of Greenwood. The white terrorist group had allies in the local government who claimed that Greenwood was an uprising with reinforcements from neighboring cities, and that lead to some 1,000 additional armed terrorists, roughly 1% of the total population of Tulsa at the time, to invade Greenwood and begin the massacre that left a trail of dead and wounded while also burning down the majority of homes.
The perpetrators in these cases were different. The victims were different. You can sit there and claim that the attack on the MOVE compound had nothing to do with the terrorist cult stockpiling illegal weapons, threatening violence to achieve their goals of anti-technology and anti-governance, and shielding their members from lawful arrest, but you’re simply wrong. You can sit there and pretend that the Philly Police evacuating the area and attempting to force the cult out of the compound with tear gas is somehow equivalent to Tulsa terrorists burning down greenwood with people inside, but you’re wrong.
While you’re at it, why don’t you start comparing this to Auschwitz?
because this has nothing to do with concentration camps, and everything to do with the American government and government related massacres in America?
I mean, if you want to bring concentration camps into this, we can start talking about why a majority of the American prison population is black and are used as life long slave labor.
no, but for a long time Irish, Italians, Germans etc… weren’t white, until they needed to increase the size of “whites” because there weren’t enough WASPS to outnumber POC
Tulsa and these two events are nothing in common.
they don’t you say? so none of them involved Government force, and not for the better?
but let’s be honest, Tulsa just had mainly black victims and was supported by the government (this is fine)
Blair Mountain just had mainly socialists as victims and was supported by the government (this is also fine)
but Waco, those were upstanding whites who refused the tyrannical mandate of the government (real victims)

TIL 38.7% > 61.3%
oh ya, i forgot, for some reason we keep adding new groups to “white” to keep a majority in anything
LMFAO even if you decide to arbitrarily exclude all other minorities from our total for no reason at all, Blacks still aren’t the majority.
no, but for a long time Irish, Italians, Germans etc… weren’t white, until they needed to increase the size of “whites” because there weren’t enough WASPS to outnumber POC
Got it, white people aren’t people with white skin but all people with dark skin are black people. Understood, sir.
