df, ask yourself why there have been no black superpowers

and try not to answer with 'because whitey'

just pointing out people praising the british empire, but also shitting on it when its to prop up some other white guys

?

@National Trotskyist full text please, with source? Becosue what i have just read has no relation to anything ay anarchist or socialsit would eevr support

the british empire could have been great at a time but then get overtaken by an even greater civilization

I mean the Assyrians were great, but obviously other civilizations improved it

yet they build on their groundwork

the groundwork of shitting on poor people....not only black, indians or chinese, but also whites

Again, race

human history is messy

i mean the brits was getting attacked by the irish just a few decades ago

why would it not be?

no one's denying the british empire had it's massive flaws

too authoritarian for sure

however they did bring their forward culture and set up countries over sea

I like how some of its stuff was just massive business ventures

Being a privateer must've been fun. Getting to shoot the spanish

"their forward culture"....i mean building something so they could exploit the resources of a certain colony was definetly very nice of them to do for themselfs

Anprim pls

the colonies also improved, some african countries were argueable better off under british rule

No excuses for their horrible deeds

however to paint it as all bad is simply not fair

Was a means to an end

Otherwise you'd have the french running things

Aryan race superior

Genocide the colonies

France did a great job with haiti tbh

block stasi if you want, he'll add nothing

yeah, when kenyans was getting killed for being in their own land they were way better off then their current growing economy

the africans had their own slaves before the brits

^

you can't name me a succesful civilization that didn't do horrible things

they weren't looked down upon because of "race"....thats a European introduction

so either you're anti civilization or a utopian

What if he's both?

the whole European slave trade is sick

probably both

Ignore arab slave trade or african slave trade

Only the abolished ones are bad

@df what civilization do you like?
