I mean I acknowledge historically speaking, countries like Russia and it's former forms i.e. Russian Empire, and so on were oppressive. They often mistreated and subjugated various minorities but if we have an honest look at history, that is true of almost every empire or majority. To highlight how they mistreated ethnic indigenous people in their country from the US, is throwing stones from a glass house. Fact of the matter is they still have about ~2 million ethnic Siberians (non-Slavs) and millions of various Caucasus non Slavs that are relatively integrated. We also have that whole slavery stain in our history-- so again i'd chill on the whole pointing at the speck in someone's eye while we have a two by four sticking out of ours.
Just kind of funny how in 'we were always at war with east Asia' Orwellian fashion we are re-writing history to how our current geopolitical enemies committed genocides left and right while not having even the remotest self-awareness of how the collective west has plenty of sins, whether it's how natives were treated or how Africans through slavery or how most continents were basically stripped by the Spaniards, Anglo-Saxons and French.
Welp....because some people couldn't cope. The history of mankind is riddled with oppression mistreatment of ethnic groups when you have a dominant population of a certain race or color group. This is a fact. Most countries try regulate or curb such incidents from happening , some are successful, some not so and some due to their overzealous push for equality have created reverse racism (
You know what I mean ).
The incessant and constant highlighting in this thread, as you know who are the usual suspects, is basically due to their inability to cope, debate, argue in a clear and succinct manner.
This is a reality check for them. More often than not, when things are not going swimmingly well in their own society , the first thing they do is to point their fingers out and blame others and not look at themselves ( This applies to every nation in the world ).
Individual speaking, every single time we get into a predicament, we always point our fingers at others. Some will point fingers for 24 hours and start to work things out from scratch and turn their lives around. And there are guys who blame others indefinitely.
The only way for this individuals to enjoy succour comfort is to post on Ferdia's thread screaming injustice. Turning liberalism into illiberalism. Because this gives them a sense of self fulfillment and virtuous integrity, delusional I think.
As to why they are not self aware of their own collective past is simply because they think, believe and is adamant they have transcended into an enlighten sphere because they possess a righteous and infallible ideology.
This is where they begin to show their
supremacy . A supremacy that they believed they are the savior of the world, the philosopher that have finally unravel the mysteries to a perfect utopian society and framework.
All I can say is this in
Hong Kong Cantonese . Watch this short exchange between John Wick and Caine in John Wick 4. Those are the exact words.
