That anti Independence Day column in the Washington post literally tries to blame America’s founding for worldwide racism.



And yes the author is a professor so that’s what parents and students are paying 65k a year to hear.

Basically “The Declaration of Independence forced England to invade India” is a central thesis of this piece.

RT is less anti-America than America’s Fake News Media.

I wonder if The Washington Compost is aware that the only place on earth where slavery still exists is in Africa.

The Left in the West is insane because +Cultural Marxism was designed to produce crazy people incapable of sustaining a culture and civilization.

It’s by intent.

Their crap wouldn’t be tolerated among the Soviets who were the intended beneficiaries ion the destruction they were to cause.

Can’t say that as it would be, among other things, Islamophobic to admit that.

Been quite a while since I was in a high school history class, didn’t take any in college, but I went to UMASS/Amherst-a buzzing hive of ANTIFA sh*t- so no telling what I’d have been exposed to. When I was there, it wasn’t as bad as it is now. The crazies had ‘coming out week’ every other week, it seemed and they walked around class to yell that a few professors were doing anthrax research.

Anywho, can someone tell me when the American Empire spread around the world? You know, like the Roman Empire or English Empire? Where America controlled large swathe’s of land across the globe.

Or when the US military marched across the globe to take it over like Alexander the Great, Atila the Hun, Ghengis Khan, the Nazi’s? I must have missed those classes or was allowed to sleep through them.

Protests are easy to arrange when bored idiots get over $600/week for doing nothing useful.

Most major ‘rat cities have an affluent white area and lots of poor blacks.

The poor blacks don’t realize that lower income whites were run out of town by blockbusting about 50 years ago as a result of the “Fair” Housing Act.

The poor blacks incorrectly think all whites are affluent and bemoan the apparent inequality.

The NASDAQ stock market doesn’t care about the skin color of share purchasers.

Why does Jeff Bezos own this trash leftist newspaper, which has taken a hard-left turn under his leadership?

Enquiring minds want to know.

After the Spanish American War. The US took what was left of the Spanish Empire.

Cuba was set free
Puerta Rico and Guam were kept as territories
The Philippines were run as a sort of commercial colony for about 50 years. Interestingly enough, the Filipinos I know have both good and bad to say about the US administration but nothing but scorn for the Spanish.

The US never called the Philippines a “Colony” but it was, for all effects and purposes, an imperial possession.

In the grand scheme of things, The Philippines, Guam and Puerto Rico were a pretty poor empire.

I wonder why we kept Puerto Rico instead of making them independent, like The Philippines?

“I wonder why we kept Puerto Rico instead of making them independent, like The Philippines?”

I have wondered that too. My guess would be, at the time it was a smaller less significant place.

Guam is in a strategic location, as is the Philippines
