Having read the histories of other countries, I saw that expansion was everything, and that the world's surface being limited, the great object of present humanity should be to take as much of the world as it possibly could. Cecil Rhodes

Yes and?

Rhodes was woke

And having these ideas meant Britain moved away faster from Rhodes' ideas than they otherwise would have

I contend that we are the finest race in the world and that the more of the world we inhabit the better it is for the human race. Just fancy those parts that are at present inhabited by the most despicable specimens of human beings what an alteration there would be if they were brought under Anglo-Saxon influence, look again at the extra employment a new country added to our dominions gives.

Cecil Rhodes

Like being one of the first to abolish slavery

And pushing for its abolishment worldwide

Empire was racial IMO

And?

and a living exhibition of Anglo supremacism

You say that like having an idea means you have to get it right from the first year of your existence

That's not how things work

It ended up being racial

England hasnt always been a bastion of tolerance etc

britain pushed for the abolishment of slavery when she could profit from it, dont make it seem like they gave a shit

about the slaves

Noone said they've been a bastion of tolerance

it wasn;t particularly racial at its onset

It was

the early colonial efforts were more religiously rationalized then anything else

Yeah to civilise the savages

spread of the true faith and whatnot

which is a racial idea

is it?

' cultural ' id say

lol

It is imperialist not racist

it;s a religious idea

which was tied to people

it's a religious legitimization of conquest

Religion and race go hand in hand

Tf

ok, moron

Cope

I guess that's why there is lots of Christians in Subsaharan Africa

and South America

and Korea

Are they the same denomination?

No

All have racial lens

Koreans are Lutheran
