The Left, Like The Devil, Reminds People Of Their Past

White guilt is something that the Left loves to use. They tell white people that their ancestors, if they owned slaves, were horrible people that deserve to burn in hell. They love to remind people of the mistakes of the past. Much in the same way the devil does.
 
Students in Western Kentucky University voted to allow for free tuition for African Americans as reparations for slavery. Andre Ambam, one of the people to fight for this resolution in WKU, told the WKU Herald that racial inequality is the basis for economic inequality. Basically, it’s white people’s fault that they’re in the mess they’re in. As of 2016, 24% of the African American population lives below the poverty line. Apparently, even 50 years after the end of segregation, it’s white people’s fault that black people are poor. 
 
To the left, if someone is poor, it’s not their fault, it’s someone else’s. 
 
But let’s go back to the subject at hand, not of poverty percentage, but of racial inequality and white guilt.
 
While the Left claims to be ‘progressive’, they sure love to remind people of the past and tell them it’s all their fault. The Left looks at slavery and segregation not as atrocities that they themselves supported, but as tools to deceive people into having a negative emotional reaction: guilt. After all, it was the Democrat party that founded the KKK. It was Bill Clinton that thought Obama should be serving him coffee. And it was a Democrat that said, upon appointing African American judge Thurgood Marshall to the Supreme Court, that “Son, when I appoint a *N-word* to the court, I want everyone to know he’s a *N-word*.” And that same Democrat often referred to the Civil Rights Act of 1957 as the “*N-word* bill”. That Democrat was noted racist Lyndon B. Johnson.
 
If the Left wants to blame anyone for the situation black people are in today, it should be them. It was John Wilkes Booth, a southern Democrat, who killed Abraham Lincoln for freeing the slaves. It was the Democrat South that seceded from the Union because Lincoln wanted to free the slaves. It was the Democrat party that imposed Segregation in the South the minute they regained power in that part of the country, after mass killing black people through their KKK arm. It was Martin Luther King Jr., a Republican, who wanted equality and integration for black people. It was Abraham Lincoln, the literal founder of the GOP, who wanted to free slaves. And it was the Left back then that wanted to stop him and the Left now that wishes he had been stopped.
 
But, like Satan, they use the mistakes of the past to guilt people into doing certain things. They say white people need to make reparations for black people, even if they had absolutely nothing to do with slavery. Leftists like Dr. Adam Kotsko think that white people must commit “mass suicide” for what white people of the past did, even if their ancestors didn’t own slaves.
 
Satan loves to remind you of the mistakes you made in the past as reasons you can’t move on to a better future. If you did poorly in school, you have no chance of being successful in the real world. If you hurt someone in the past and feel sorry for it, you shouldn’t even think that whatever you did could ever be forgiven by anyone. If your ancestors owned slaves, your heritage is racist, and must do what the Left says in order to be forgiven.
 
None of that is the case.
 
God knows there’s evil in Man’s heart. It was evil that made white slave traders do what they did. But He also knows that Man is capable of good. When Satan says that you can’t do something because of your past, God says you CAN do it, because of Him. When Satan says that what you did is unforgivable, God says that if you simply ask for forgiveness, He will forgive and forget what you did. And when the Left says that white people must make reparations to black people for what their ancestors did in the past, God disagrees with them wholeheartedly, as evidenced by the fact that the “White Guilt” doesn’t generate their desired result: votes.
 
So, if you’re white, the next time someone tries to guilt you into thinking slavery and segregation were your fault, point towards the Heavens and say: “It’s your word against His.”
 
Matthew 6:14-15
“For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.”
