Slavery has been turned into folklore. Millions, tens of millions of broken, methodically destroyed human lives, is hardly ever presented in its real, nightmarish authenticity. People in Africa were hunted down like animals, tortured, raped, killed, and shipped like cattle to the so-called 'free' and 'democratic' "New World".
Does a country constructed on such macabre foundations have really any moral right to exist, let alone call itself 'free'? Can it be allowed to police the world? It is as if you would allow that murder cob who killed Mr. Floyd, to run a nation!
And those states which are now forming Europe? Their citizens are the descendants of those who were hunting down millions of human beings. Offspring of those who perpetrated and then got rich on such mass-slaughters as those of the Namibians, or people who used to inhabit what is now known as Congo.
When dragged to the broad daylight, it is all very, very uncomfortable, isn't it? Better to sweep the truth under the carpet, and talk about "love", "goodwill". And then keep robbing and murdering as before, far away from the cameras!
This way, nothing would ever change.
Repeating over and over again: "race does not matter; it is actually all about class", could make those who are in control of the world feel good about themselves, even sometimes sorry for themselves, which is actually their favorite state of mind. But it is a terribly hypocritical and deceptive position. And it has to be unveiled if there is ever to be justice!
