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.

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.

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

Enquiring minds want to know.

Here’s a little perspective about communism in college from the commencement speech from the 1952 movie “My Son John”

Members of the graduating class and their fathers and mothers, I mention your parents because I address you as representing their tomorrows. Sometimes this day is called graduation, sometimes commencement. For you, as for me, it will be both. But my life will be altogether different from yours.

By now a plane has arrived in Lisbond. It would've carried me far beyond the laws of my native land. But no plane, no meanse of transportation, nothing can take a man away from himself. He lives with himself day and night. His conscience lives with him. It's force will not be stilled. Mine warned me that I would not be free in Lisbond, but I would only find my freedom here.

So here I stand hardly believing that but a few years back I sat down there in my cap and gown like all of you. I looked like you then. I felt like you feel today. Ready to go. Forward! Full of zeal, full of purpose. I was going to help make a better world. I was flattered when I was immediately recognized as an intellect. I was invited to homes where only superior minds communed. It excited my freshman fancy to hear daring thoughts that I wouldnt've dreamed of when I lived at home. A bold defiance of the only authroities I'd ever known: my church and my mother and father.

I know that many of you have experienced that stimulation. But stimulants lead to narcotics. As the seller of habit forming dope gives the innocent their first inaculations with the cunning worthy of a serpant, there are others snakes lying in wait to satisfy the desire of the young to dedicate themselves to something positive, to give their existence purpose. The lure is to every young American's sense of justice, their love of fairplay that makes all decent men rebel against the evil forces that exploit the weak. With the purest and noblest motives we eagerly embrace an organized, definite and active movement to alleviate the suffering all around us. A beautiful liberalism is now arroused and we have faith in ourselves, our comrades. Somewhere along the line our brain has been numbed so that we have substituted faith in man for faith in God.

Even now the eyes of Soviet agents are on some of you. They've observed your abilities and seen qualities that I once posessed. It's too late to save me. It is not too late for you to save yourselves. No one warned me as solemnley as I am warning you now. Hold fast to honor. It's sacred! No one tried to live the part they wrote for me more than I did. But living it with no spiritual compass I lost all sense of direction. Any meanse justified their ends: shameless falsehood, self abasement, treachery! And before I realized the enormity of the steps I had taken I was an enemy of my country and a servant of a foreign power.

Now you know that the honor converred upon me in this citation is false. Every word in it is a lie because I am a living lie. I AM A TRAITOR. I AM A NATIVE AMERICAN COMMUNIST SPY and may God have mercy on my soul. There is another paper waiting for me, this time truthfully worded; a warrant for my arrest. That is my proper degree and this also my commencement day, the beginning of a new life so help me God.

India was already a racist society run by Muslims when westerners arrived.

The Washington Post, which says the global legacy of our **independence has to be reconsidered**.

If the democrats win it will happen Marxism rulers will make sure of it.

So glad for the pedagogical advice.

From now on I shall teacher the Hellenistic age as “Spread of Greek supremacy” and the Pax Romana as “Roman privilege.”

Kmk.

I’d comment that I cant read most wapoo articles because they are behind a pay wall - which I refuse to pay for.
