An example of how the west cant do right for doing wrong. You would agree, at least, that whatever the reasons behind the abolition it was the right thing to do and resulyed in immense good? |

Yes, that was a big driver behind Brexit, and Trump, and (in an only slightly different way) Corbyn. But please also note - it *wasn't* "the left", or "socialism". |

Thing is - the slave trade was such a big thing - that went on for centuries. It was the most extreme form of racism. I can see why black people from any country who know some world history, while not necessarily being directly upset (triggered) by language and stereo types from that era being used today, might see it as providing a background/baseline that enables actual racists to ply their crap. Whether the racist is using the exact same language with a racist intent or he feels if people say that then he can say or do this much worse thing. Anyhow - reckon that's me done. Good day, sir. |

It doesn't account for the fact that it was voluntarily abolishing slavery that would have handed such an advantage to competitors in the first instance. Even generously assuming it was the sole motive it still resulted in a great service to humanity. "Rule Britannia..." |
