df, ask yourself why there have been no black superpowers

2017-08-19 21:23:53 UTC  

and try not to answer with 'because whitey'

2017-08-19 21:24:32 UTC  

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

2017-08-19 21:25:26 UTC  

?

2017-08-19 21:25:46 UTC  

@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

2017-08-19 21:26:02 UTC  

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

2017-08-19 21:26:36 UTC  

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

2017-08-19 21:26:49 UTC  

yet they build on their groundwork

2017-08-19 21:28:00 UTC  

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

2017-08-19 21:28:13 UTC  

Again, race

2017-08-19 21:28:27 UTC  

human history is messy

2017-08-19 21:28:29 UTC  

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

2017-08-19 21:28:33 UTC  

why would it not be?

2017-08-19 21:29:27 UTC  

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

2017-08-19 21:29:34 UTC  

too authoritarian for sure

2017-08-19 21:29:58 UTC  

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

2017-08-19 21:30:07 UTC  

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

2017-08-19 21:31:04 UTC  

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

2017-08-19 21:31:16 UTC  

"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

2017-08-19 21:31:29 UTC  

Anprim pls

2017-08-19 21:31:51 UTC  

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

2017-08-19 21:32:03 UTC  

No excuses for their horrible deeds

2017-08-19 21:32:14 UTC  

however to paint it as all bad is simply not fair

2017-08-19 21:32:57 UTC  

Was a means to an end

2017-08-19 21:33:05 UTC  

Otherwise you'd have the french running things

2017-08-19 21:33:07 UTC  

Aryan race superior

2017-08-19 21:33:13 UTC  

Genocide the colonies

2017-08-19 21:33:27 UTC  

France did a great job with haiti tbh

2017-08-19 21:33:29 UTC  

block stasi if you want, he'll add nothing

2017-08-19 21:33:43 UTC  

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

2017-08-19 21:33:58 UTC  

the africans had their own slaves before the brits

2017-08-19 21:34:07 UTC  

^

2017-08-19 21:34:13 UTC  

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

2017-08-19 21:34:22 UTC  

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

2017-08-19 21:34:25 UTC  

so either you're anti civilization or a utopian

2017-08-19 21:34:38 UTC  

What if he's both?

2017-08-19 21:34:40 UTC  

the whole European slave trade is sick

2017-08-19 21:34:46 UTC  

probably both

2017-08-19 21:34:54 UTC  

Ignore arab slave trade or african slave trade

2017-08-19 21:35:01 UTC  

Only the abolished ones are bad

2017-08-19 21:35:01 UTC  

@df what civilization do you like?
