It's Newstrom buying votes so he doesn't lose his own state's primary in 2024 like Harris did. There's 0% of a chance of this going through and 100% chance of its failure getting blamed on White conservatives.
I doubt it, it’ll generate more people suckling at the ideological teat for dopamine calling for the mass murder of anyone not loudly extolling the virtue of this. Until some kind of energetic/charismatic leader pops up I’m only concerned when they have a disenfranchised group of people to collectively use as a human shield. If they don’t have that they just kinda continue existing and whining
I’m whiter than white, blonde hair blue eyes but I do have an African American slave ancestor and the DNA to prove it. I have a feeling I would be disqualified immediately due to my looks and skin color. Part of me would love to head to Cali just to be a fly in that ointment. Lots of white Americans are the descendants of African American slaves and I hope they come out of the wood work.
Well. If you vote D then you get paid. If you are black and vote R you don't. Just like how larry elder was called the black face of white supremacy. Also if you don't vote for biden then you ain't black.
I remember being taught in school that the Chinese built the railroads making $1 a month and many sent part of their salary back home to China. So yeah, you should qualify.
I'll find a way to reclaim my California residency while remaining in Washington State, lol! I know, they're sill trying to hit me up for state taxes for 1996 when I left the state in the summer of 1995. They can deduct my now $2000 state tax bill from the 200k
I think California should go for it. I also think Federal tax dollars should not be spent bailing out a soon bankrupt California if it does choose to spend over half a Trillion of their state tax dollars on this.
Spending money we don’t have to give to people who many of them weren’t even alive during Jim Crow, let alone slavery. And many of the people who will end up paying it weren’t children or not even born yet under Jim Crow, so they are being punished for something they never even took apart of.
If they take the $200k does that mean Dems will finally shut up about racism, get rid of affirmative action and let everyone get along in peace and brotherhood like we should? If so I’ll take that deal
It is called buying votes. Every politician on every country in this planet is doing it. He is pulling a Johnson (see what LBJ said about the african demographic).
If would almost be comical to see this happen were it not for the fact that it would almost certainly nuke CA's economy, which could easily have ripple effects across the nation. Can you imagine how the average low income family of 4 would react when they suddenly have a million dollars in cash? The cost of housing would get even more stupid, there wouldn't be a car to be bought in the entire state, etc. I think Gavin is trying to create The Great Reboot all by himself.
this is so fucked.... and what about all the asians, native americans, and other ethnicities? I guess they're shit out of luck then and should be contributing to the supposed "crimes" that they never committed and "privileges" that they're "enjoying" from their ancestors right?
I support reparations. If someone can prove that they themselves were slaves they should receive compensation from someone who personally, actually owned slaves.
The democrats are against equality. Putting the suffering of black people from 150 years ago on the backs of regular working-class Americans, most of whom immigrated to the US well after the civil war, is criminal.
Im actually in favor of this nationwide. That is as long as we never bring this bullshit ever again in any shape of form. Bitch again and you will pay it back plus interest!
A part of me greatly suspects, this is nothing more than a PR stunt by a man going through many different corruption, scandals and controversies, whom still has aspirations for the oval office. Like a typical Democrat, distracting people with bread and circuses, and promising people things they know they have no realistic capacity to provide neither in a logistical sense nor legal basis. This is probably gonna go down in flames in very much the same way as the student loan forgiveness scheme by the Biden administration did so predictably. It’ll be rightfully, struck down by a higher court, as flagrantly illegal not to mention, ironically racist and discriminatory. And then the Democrats will turn around and blame it on a allegedly Republican controlled judiciary, depriving the people of their handouts. Likely using it in their campaigns in the next presidential election.
I'm fine with it. States rights, right? Let all the Californians pay out billions in reparations futher forcing out conservatives and inviting more freeloaders to the state.
I have mixed feelings on this. I obviously see this for the stupidity that it is and we shouldn’t do it, but at the same time my wife is black and this would almost pay off our house. Why must life only consist of trade offs!😩
IMPORTANT: On

I guess that's the Dems new playbook. Make promises they know they can't complete and blame the repubs.
The $223k is just the big ask. Newsom will give them $100k instead and call it a “compromise“.
That's an expensive vote.
They saw the student loan handout left the numbers too close so they have to go to plan B.
Usually costs $10 and the address of an empty lot.
I would be happy to see these reparations if he paid from his own pocket!
This will complete the country's descent into madness.

We should vote California out, maybe an earthquake will push them into the Pacific. Then we can bring Costa Rica into the fold.
How are they going to decide who gets the money and who's black enough to even qualify?
“We have to pass it to see how it plays out.” - The Democrats
Exactly.

Where does Trudeau sign up for his payment?
Don’t forget Jimmy Kimmel
[удалено]
I have 2% sub sarahan and I live in california. where do I sign?
Racism is solved!
I though racism was solved when they took away Aunt Jemima syrup and banned all racist cartoon characters, lol!!
That's the amusing part.
I’m Chinese. We built the railroads, where’s my check? Nah but seriously this is crazy.
I remember being taught in school that the Chinese built the railroads making $1 a month and many sent part of their salary back home to China. So yeah, you should qualify.
Lol remember when leftists were whining about Abbot spending 12 million dollars to send illegal immigrants to sanctuary cities?

If this goes through, all Californians should be allowed to say the n-word without fear of reprisal
Lifetime pass

Name checks out. But no. You Irish get nothing.
I am trans-racial and I identify as black... Money me plz
Spending money we don’t have to give to people who many of them weren’t even alive during Jim Crow, let alone slavery. And many of the people who will end up paying it weren’t children or not even born yet under Jim Crow, so they are being punished for something they never even took apart of.
I identify as 2 black people. Big bucks, no whammys....and STOP
If they take the $200k does that mean Dems will finally shut up about racism, get rid of affirmative action and let everyone get along in peace and brotherhood like we should? If so I’ll take that deal
Yes, worth it! (If that’s the case 😁)
As if California wasn’t expensive enough.
Is he trying to get recalled again?
I identify as a black woman
Zero chance of fraud.
I’d like to identify as black now.
It is called buying votes. Every politician on every country in this planet is doing it. He is pulling a Johnson (see what LBJ said about the african demographic).
Jimmy Kimmel and Sarah Silverman are getting richer!?

If you live in California, MOVE!!! This man is going to make you pay for the sins of your fathers. Let that sink in a little.
California was not even a slave state for god sakes.
And at the end of a year some will be better off and most will be right back where they started. Money without financial education is fleeting.
So if they still end up poor after this it's their fault, right?
Guaranteed to happen
Suddenly I identify as black.
it is a great idea and we can expand it so every race in America gets the same amount...since we were all slaves at one time
I want reparations for a lifetime of affirmative action oppression.
Just another lie to keep peoples hopes high. Like Biden and the whole student loan lie. When will these people stop believing their lies.
this is so fucked.... and what about all the asians, native americans, and other ethnicities? I guess they're shit out of luck then and should be contributing to the supposed "crimes" that they never committed and "privileges" that they're "enjoying" from their ancestors right?
Look who’s running for President 24
Ok so how will they find the descendants of the Africans who enslaved their own people and sold them to others?
They were never slaves, slaves don’t exist in the United States anymore and have not existed since the mid 1800’s
Here’s the best part: giving black Americans reparations would change nothing.
I support reparations. If someone can prove that they themselves were slaves they should receive compensation from someone who personally, actually owned slaves.
Hey government, fuck you.
Hope it comes out of his pocket.
The democrats are against equality. Putting the suffering of black people from 150 years ago on the backs of regular working-class Americans, most of whom immigrated to the US well after the civil war, is criminal.
White guilt is a disease
How much % black do you need to be?
Im actually in favor of this nationwide. That is as long as we never bring this bullshit ever again in any shape of form. Bitch again and you will pay it back plus interest!
It will never end. These is much money to be made by the consultants and activists.
Calls on Nike stock
With that much money you can you know… fund schools in low income black districts.
It’s cute that you think they’ll actually get $223K. At best they’ll get a tenth and the rest will enrich Newsom’s major donors and family.
why? because californians stole african american's land?
Oh, I can't wait to watch this shitshow. 🍿
As a descendant of a slave but manifests as white, do I have a legal case if Im denied reparations?
If we stopped giving $ to Ukraine, every American could be given TWICE this amount right now.
How in the hell is California still remotely functioning as a state with all the entitlement programs and bills that it pulls out of its ass?
Title isn’t 100% true. Doesn’t kamala still pay taxes in California? She kinda owned slaves.

It takes a really gullible person to believe nonsense like this.
Fuckin 😂😂😂
It’s almost like they’re purposely trying to bankrupt the country
What if I identify as the descendent of a slave?
Hmm, might need to take a quick vacay in California. If dumbasses are going to just give away money, there's no sense in not exploiting them.
I would love to know who the Californian’s think is going to pay for this stupidity.
If this happens… 🤡 🌎
Paid over a 30 year term
If Californians thought inflation was bad now
So after that, racism in California is over right? They can't refer to a history of oppression anymore?
Taking his cues from LBJ I see.
All he needs to add is “We’ll have them @$&###* voting Democrat for the next 50 years”.
Clown world
Don’t forget to pay your taxes Cali.
I'm fine with it. States rights, right? Let all the Californians pay out billions in reparations futher forcing out conservatives and inviting more freeloaders to the state.
Start suing.
Wish I was black… and lived in California
The most important new Amendment would be 1 that limits how politicians spend the electorate's money.
Nice victimhood if you can get it, watch out for a lot of racial awakings, self identifying relatives of slaves & 'G'/Dawgs pronouns.
Obama is already in line.
I have mixed feelings on this. I obviously see this for the stupidity that it is and we shouldn’t do it, but at the same time my wife is black and this would almost pay off our house. Why must life only consist of trade offs!😩
Gruesome needs to go!
Triggering a new migration West?
There will also probably be a reparation income tax of $223k for those that get it.
special types, meet vote buying.. er i mean carrot... er i mean....
Must be elections coming.
Honestly not enough. Also how is this eerily the exact amount that 4 years at Harvard costs?
