Post-Modern Condition Syndrome Invention Disorder

I noticed on the radio the other day they were discussing "Post-Traumatic Slavery Syndrome".
Apparently if you don't qualify for ME, Gulf War Syndrome, ADHD, SAD etc., then it might be worth checking your family or cultural history to see if this could be your modern condition of choice. "Effects" last for over 200 years and can be inherited and can be applied to the enslavers as well as the enslaved.

I find your cynicism quite offensive. We transported , against their will, millions of africans to the america's. We should stand up and accept our responsibilities. These people deserve compensation. I suggest transporting, against their will, millions of africans to africa. Seems fair to me.
