Inanimated is the biggest hypocrite of 2015. Once I finish, if you listen, I'm sure you will agree. Nah I know exactly what you're saying. You're saying that Caliburn saying ¨Well, African people also had slaves, so the blame shouldn't be on just Europeans or White people¨ is him trying to deflect just blame, and is an attempt to make it seem less bad or alright, what they did. You're a hypocrite because when Kendrick Lamar said the same thing about murder, you called the song hot and said the message was great. Kendrick said the same thing Cali did, the only difference is Cali said it about slavery and Kendrick said it about murder, but you criticize the former and praised the latter. Hypocrite.
No. The difference is Kendrick wasn't deflecting any of the negative meanings(In the last couplet). As in he wasn't saying oh the reason black people do this is because of this, or the reason white people do this is because of this. Before however, he was. Which is what made him the hypocrite!

Kendrick deflects crack society, and inner city violence.
Kendrick deflects the murderous society of black men by saying white men freed black men.
Kendrick then turns his back on deflection and says why is he crying over black lives taken by white men, but not black lives taken by other black men. Meaning he has seen how one sided the argument is. There is uproar when there's white on black crime, but when there's black on black crime, there is hardly any uproar. He's finally explaining why he's a hypocrite!(Click on the Hypocrite links to understand it further)

Saying white people gave us the crack, and made us the murderers is simply deflecting the real problem.

No. I didn't. He wasn't deflecting blame or making it less negative. He simply pointed out that everyone who is responsible was being held accountable. You then interpreted it that way just to have something to ***** about.
Let's agree to disagree Lol. You're defending his meaning and that will get us no where.

Putting blame on either races is not the answer. White or black there is no difference both races have done stuff we arent proud off lets work together as brothers and sisters and move forward. Together as one!
Funny you just put the blame on whites in your last post.
You sure like to flip-flop your views,like you always like to do.

Your comments are indeed correct and accurate the white man is the cause of all our problems in africa, he made us slaves and destroyed our lands.
-Africans made themselves slaves by selling their own kind.
- they destroyed their own land.

You realize one could easily retort to this by saying ¨Well now you're saying every European or Western person is being collectively held guilty.¨ What you said didn't make much sense. ¨Let's be racist guys, let's be Xenophobic instead with a dash of racism at the end.¨
I'm not really sure what you mean. I'm just pointing out most nations have abused others in the past, which most are guilty of everywhere. European nations have caused problems in Africa, The US did bad stuff to the native Americans, The Spaniards did so to the South-Meso Americans, Japan to much of East-Asia, etc. My point being it's not about race, it's just the unfortunate reality that the bigger/stronger groups to tend to prey on the weaker.

, White Imperialism was the cause of the destruction of ancient/ethnic cultures, genocide, plague and the enslavement of millions.
This is not racist its completely true, if they see this as racist then they are in deep denial, every basic historian would agree with that statement. Granted it was not the reason for the destruction of all ethnic cultures nor where white cultures the only ones to use slavery or genocide and the plague is still a bit of a mystery.

But only white cultures did all off that on a mass scale, so no, it was not racist.

I don't think, it was like that. Africa consisted out of hundreds, even thousands of smaller kingdoms and tribes who were at war with each other nearly all the time. When they conquered one, they sold many of them as slaves and they didn't really care to whom. You had an entire chain of people buying and selling slaves from the center of the continent all the way to the coast. The Europeans just had to wait there. Even after Europe abolished slave trade, it still kept going among Africans themselves. This is what I mean by people only telling half the story.

Europeans brought stuff with them from Europe to trade for slaves, they then brought the slaves to the New World to work on the fields and then returned to Europe with ships full of silver, sugar and cotton. Then the cycle repeated itself. Still to this day one of the most profiting enterprise ever done by men.
I see you mentioning the slave trade but that was only the tip of the iceberg. Yes, maybe Africans sold their kins, no one is denying that.

But who put them black people on boats like animals ? What am I saying. White people made them travel in horrible conditions. Yes, I meant WHITE PEOPLE. I'm not racist, not at all but the white part is important here because it's their being black that made it okay for europpean to abuse the slaves.

Sold them like horses, made them work like cattle. Killed them like pigs. Abuse the shit out of them in between. You know what they used to do to slaves ? Put them in hole, with their head above ground, pour syrrup on them and let them be eaten by ants. I could go on and on. They didn't do that just because they were slaves ( there were white slaves also , people too poor to travel that sold their rights for a period of 3 years, and those weren't treated like that)

That's racism.

Quick lesson about irony; That white man everyone likes to blame, he wrote the history you all love to claim.


OT; You're not racist, you're simply inadequately informed.

What is white imperialism?
genocide and enslavement are mostly because of race and religion. But powerful exploits the weak anyway.
Many of the massacres by British colonist in my country was mainly because they thought others were subhuman.

You said it quite yourself my friend.
"That white man everyone likes to blame, he wrote the history..."

I can elaborate if you'd like.

No it was not racist but dumb ... You simply don't speak against the majority group, there would be same reactions when you point finger at the backwater mentality of some Middle Eastern states, or against Chinese Communist in China ... everyone had their fair share of historical atrocities and it is stupid to point fingers when surrounded by the target group.
