Hmm, let me guess… the new migrants will get a piece of it because…
No, migrants won't get any of it. Read the tweet and/or the article, that money is going to Holocaust survivors and their descendants.
The state is paying for Germany's actions, but has no money for the descendants of Black American slaves.

My bad, illegals.

Oops, too quick on the draw, sorry. But I thought reparations was already given for the holocaust a few decades ago. But that’s not enough, their heirs get money now. Crazy.
And no, they’ll make sure no one but them gets it. For ours, illegals and everyone else will be eligible for a piece. Sad.

It's my supposition that one of the things a certain group hates about us is that they want to be regarded as the most oppressed group in order to weaponize it.

The Holocaust was obviously horrific. A half dozen years or so of pure hell. But it can't come close to 400 years in the Americas, both north and south and the Caribbean. Plus the aftermath.

Also, the Holocaust itself has its narrative changed. Today, notice how 99 percent of the time, what is mentioned is 6 million being killed? There were an estimated 16 million in all. 5.8 million of them were from Soviets. The Roma, aka Gypsy populations were decimated almost wiped out. In fact, more Russians were killed in the camps up to 1942 than any other group. Roughly 37 percent of the total deaths were of a certain group. The others don't get mentioned today and my supposition is its by design.

The Holocaust itself is being re-narrated to be about one group. Furthermore, the Gypsies have gotten less than they have per capita. The reasons given are they are hard to locate. So, the Nazis were able find them before but suddenly no one can find them when there is money to give out?

Let me stop before I get myself in too much trouble.

I disagree. The jooz are gonna get that reparations money. Every red cent.
No study needed, no questions asked.
I still think it's crazy how this country never partook in the Jewish Holocaust, yet they pay them out.. are they getting money from Germany to do that?

I'm starting to see ... All our officials are Jewish... The US fawns over Israel, ...

What a puzzle smh

You know how you always hear "I didn't own slaves why should my tax dollars go to reparations?" Well, one of several arguments is the German government (Specifically West Germany at the time_ after WW2 were made up of those that opposed Hitler and the Nazis. Former Nazis couldn't hold office. And the Nazis 'only' got 37 percent of the vote in 1933 (and they stole a lot of that), so the vast majority of Germans weren't complicit directly. And some of the Germans in the government who paid reparations were victims of the Nazis, they lost jobs, were jailed, etc. So, that kinda kills the 'I didn't own slaves' argument. The America of pre slavery is the same one today. As for the British and French, they colonized/targeted after slavery in the Americas.

The actual amount should be at least the times what they are proposing , but anyway ...

.. It's always interesting how things magically start coming together around election time ... My question, why didn't you introduce the plan earlier?

We'll see ... From first impressions, pulling another okie-doke ...
