Comment on Caribbean nations set to demand royal family makes reparations for slave trade
rebul@kbin.social 9 months agoStupid comment. So, using your logic, it would be OK to fine you for something your great great great grandfather did. I'm confident that not a single 'internet couch activist' would accept that.

If I had inherited insane wealthy due to the horrible actions of my ancestors, then losing part of it to repay the victims of that tragedy is perfectly fine. It isn't like I earned it through my actions, and I would expect that if someone stole something from me and gave it to someone else then I should still get it back.
Way to be selfish though, hope it lets you sleep at night.

Very noble of you to state what you would do IF yada yada yada. I call BS.

At least my speculation is helping victims instead of shilling for the fucking royals.

Nah, I couldn't give two shits about the royals. I just don't want to see a ridiculous precedent set.
