Oh, they understand the question; they're just laughing at how dumb it is. But since you asked, I actually know the answer. Now, I don't want to misquote you, so here is the specific question you asked: A thread.
You have to understand the post in order to have a conversation. No one has given a single example of a culture that has done more. Nowhere am I ignoring the past, but you’re clearly ignoring the present

This morning, we won a court order blocking Elon Musk, the world’s richest man, from accessing Americans’ private data. Musk and his DOGE employees must destroy all records they've obtained. I've said it before, and I'll say it again: no one is above the law.
We're suing over the free rein Donald Trump gave Elon Musk and DOGE to access Americans’ private information. Musk and DOGE want to use this information to cut vital services that Americans rely on — from health care to education. This is unacceptable and illegal.

Happy Black History Month! Black history is American history—and Black History Month is a time of celebrating the victories and steadfast resilience of generations of Black Americans who’ve accomplished incredible feats and bent the arc of the moral universe.

From our earliest days, Black history has always been American history – and Black folks have profoundly shaped our American culture through music, art, literature, sports, and beyond. One month a year is not sufficient to celebrate the power of the movements and the people who have fought for the rights we enjoy today. That’s something that we have to do each and every day, as we strive to live up to their example and make sure our children and grandchildren remember their stories.

While families grieve and our nation mourns the 67 victims of last night’s heartbreaking crash, Donald Trump and his cronies are already abusing this tragedy to further their racist, repugnant agenda.
Reporter: Are you saying this crash was caused as a result of diversity hiring Trump: It could have been

I met today with President Sheikh Mohamed of the UAE. Together we are growing our security, tech, and economic partnership — from AI to space. We are also working to strengthen regional stability and address the grave humanitarian crises in Gaza and Sudan.

I met with a delegation of the U.S. House of Representatives Foreign Affairs Committee to discuss further assistance to Ukraine. We talked about the frontline situation and military assistance, particularly additional systems and missiles to strengthen our air defense. We paid special attention to increasing sanctions against Russia. I thank the United States for its support and important decisions. I appreciate the significant bicameral and bipartisan support of Congress, President Joe Biden, and the American people.

This is the face of a man who climbed the ladder of affirmative action to his present perch of power only to help destroy the very ladder on which he ascended. This is not only the mark of deep ingratitude & disavowal of history, but a withering betrayal of justice & democracy.
