You sound very anti-right wing yet you're falling for the extremist right-wing meme that Irish aren't white.
This may shock you, but I believe things because I find them to be credible, not because of who is saying them. The Irish lived in a separate ghetto called the Pinch District in Memphis.

It was called the Pinch because the Irish were starving to death and it made their faces look emaciated and "pinched"
also, just for giggles and to show the fine history of trolling

Just putting that link out there in case you think there's no historical basis.
But since you advocate for people taking revenge for racial crimes
I don't remember doing this. I haven't made any moral judgements. Morals are opinions; I'm concerned with facts.
Historically, though, it's generally been white lynch mobs murdering people. It shouldn't really be that shocking that white people aren't the only ones who can mob. Before MLK came along the Civil Rights movement was heavily associated with violence, for example.
Jim Crow ended when, exactly?
Google tells me it was in the 60's and at the latest the early 70's, that's way before most blacks in America were even born, you might be a bit delusional if you think the new generation is still affected by it 50+ years later. I can also claim I'm still under dictatorship of my country as well, no? My country's only been "free" from dictatorship since 1974.
I think anyone over 50 can definitely claim to have been affected by the dictatorship, and it's not unreasonable to hold a grudge about something that was done to your parent or grandparent.
The Sons of Confederate Veterans are still pissed off about the Civil War, and that was nearly 150 years ago.
sharecropping never happened,
"Sharecropping is a system of agriculture in which a landowner allows a tenant to use the land in return for a share of the crops produced on their portion of land."
This what you mean? See nothing wrong with it, to be honest.
Angola never happen,
You done goofed now, boy.
This Angola, not that Angola.

Fela Kuti once admitted Africa ran better under apartheid because at least it had a strong centralized and stable system of rule which provided more opportunities for prosperity because it allowed people to plan for the long term. Unjust law is still better than no law at all.
That doesn't mean just law isn't preferrable to unjust law, though.
Rodney King never happened.
One incident of a handful of admittedly shitty police officers abusing a black man in the very early 90's is enough for blacks to be angry so many years later? Wow, then I can only imagine how they must feel towards other blacks for murdering eachother in such high rates in this decade alone.
It wasn't just one incident. It was just the first time one had been filmed. This rise in propaganda is caused by cameras, not by changes in policies.
It's all whitey's fault.
I actually don't even believe in white racial identity. Or black. They're both constructs. People come from families, not races.
No, what makes people cucks is not seeing the blatant racism of BLM and when you do see it defending it because "muh past!!! pay reparaishuns hwyte man!". In which case, yes, it does seem like you are a cuckold.
Everybody's racist. Perception bias exists in a lot more things than race. The problem is when people start trying to have a pissing contest to see who can be more racist, which is just aggro-dumb. Not everything is about asserting dominance like a dog humping a couch.
