I saw that the activist pretending to be a journalist Lemon asking a UK historian about getting retribution from the British Royals, and the historian told that foll that if you want reparations for slavery, go to the source of the slave trade, and the people who captures and sold their neighbours and local tribes into slavery… Africans. And the whole story of this “The Woman King” is based of historical facts, and tribe who would very BIG on the slave trade, and yet the film does not touch on it. The film glorifies the slave traders and re-writes history.
The Dahomey Kingdom became known to European traders at this time as a major source of slaves in the slave trade at Allada and Whydah.

That whole reparations thing is a can of worms which needs to be nipped in the bud otherwise it will just perpetuate the victim culture.
As a matter of fact, The Rubin Report posted a very good interview with Vivek Ramaswamy explaining how woke culture has incentivized victimhood and we may very well have found ourselves in a spiral from which there is no escape.
September 21, 2022 at 7:27 pm #281797For the left, being a victim is part of their culture.
I am a victim, give me free stuff! Give me special privileges! Give me a life without having to earn a living! Gimme GIMME!
Those vultures were hoping the death of the Queen would mean easy money, even thou they do NOT live in the UK.
What utter nonsense!
Someone like the Queen had a fulltime / lifetime job of being Queen, 100% of the day, 365 days of the year.
Almost no one could have lived with all the rules and protocols, being neutral on all political issues, being formal and polite 100% of the time. (Which is one reason why Megan and her husband wanted out.) But the late Queen did.
The symbols of her authority that were presented on her coffin…. the Orb that represents the monarch’s power comes from God…
And the leftoid HATE that! And to them everything HAS TO BE political. Everything HAS TO BE about agendas.
That is one reason the Queen was so respected. She represented ALL in her nation. She did not pick sides.
While King Charles has promise to follow in the Queen’s footsteps and represent the nation as she did, that only time will tell.
September 22, 2022 at 6:29 am #281838is not in the least false. Some were more successful than others and some were closer to our timeline than others but conquering and colonizing is essentially the history of the world
It is when you claim every society has colonized. Many have but not all.
The history of man is violent and bloody and often immoral. But we learn, evolve and progress even through those processes.
which is why monarchy should be abolished in western societies. It’s a relic of the past which should be buried already. Granted that the british monarchy doesn’t have the power it used to have (thank goodness for that), having royal elites living on tax payer money while simultaneously not having to pay taxes themselves and on top of that having royal funerals that cost millions and millions and again in taxpayer money during an energy crisis is just beyond my comprehension. And I’m very interested in seeing the reaction of people on the right who both resist elites leeching from the working class for no good reason while also supporting traditions because of no other reason than it being a tradition and being scared of society progressing. It’s all a contradiction here.
September 22, 2022 at 6:34 am #281839And it’s also interesting to see the response from Brits, as most people who live in London are pretty financially stable support the monarchy because they think it doesn’t cause any harm and it’s just a ”cool and fun tradition” while working class cities such as Liverpool for example have a way more negative attitude towards the minarchy. One example being Liverpool FC fans booing during the national anthem and minute of silence for the queen as a protest.
September 22, 2022 at 11:47 am #281856“It is when you claim every society has colonized. Many have but not all.”
I did not claim that. You are just a contrarian. You seem to agree with my summation that the history of man is bloody and no one is innocent. So why are are arguing? Any society that could expand in the past did. It is the nature of humans. Picking the last 2 or 3 to do this after 10’s of thousands of years is just being petty for the sake of virtue signaling.
September 23, 2022 at 5:11 am #281916If conquering/colonizing is blood on the hands then EVERY society ever has blood on its hands.
To me this sounds like that.
So why are are arguing? Any society that could expand in the past did. It is the nature of humans. Picking the last 2 or 3 to do this after 10’s of thousands of years is just being petty for the sake of virtue signaling.
I am arguing for abolishing monarchies as many countries have done because monarchy isn’t a political system that should exist in modern civilized countries. We don’t live in the 1500’s anymore. And the reason why I criticize the UK monarchy and Elizabeth is for one, because she was so fucking old she existed during the colonization of many African countries and was a princess even during the British Raj in India. The second reason, as I explained many times, royal families just leech off their country’s tax money without bringing anything to the table. They’re just political puppets and wealthy assholes.
So no, it’s not just virtue signalling which seems to be a term right wingers just throw around when they have nothing else to say. I mean I’m not a working class citizen in the UK so I’m not effected by the monarchy, it’s just my opinion. Which luckily seems to be a growing opinion among younger generations in the UK so maybe when the monarchy ass kissing generation dies, the UK can finally take a step towards more modern political structures. I’m just confused why the self proclaimed ”patriots” in America are riding the monarchy so hard when their country had a bloody war to get rid of it.

Cambridge dons revolt over ‘propagandist’ slavery conference criticising the late Queen
Academics are gathering on campus for a three-day event on Wednesday titled “envisioning reparations: historical and comparative approaches”.
Academics?
But insiders say the programme has been captured by “propagandist” activists, filled with radical scholars mainly from US universities who have condemned colonialism.
An agenda, that is completely BIASED against facts and history.
The front page of the conference website features a “distasteful” quote from the Kenyan activist Wambugu Wa Nyingi which “criticises” the late Queen.
Clean sign how bad this is gonna be.
“It’s morally obscene to suggest that white Britons are collectively guilty and that today’s great-great-grandchildren of the coal miners or chimney sweeps should have their families’ money given over to appease the consciences of privileged academics,”…
We are not responsible for the actions of people hundreds of years ago.
Get over it!
September 29, 2022 at 11:23 am #282456Queen Elizabeth II’s Cause of Death Revealed
According to her death certificate made public by the National Records of Scotland on Sept. 29, the cause of the Queen’s passing was revealed to be “old age.”
Really?
Her death certificate confirmed she passed away at 3:10 p.m. local time in Aberdeenshire, Scotland.
What else do we know?
The Queen has faced several health challenges in recent months, including testing positive for COVID-19 in February.
I am surprised they did not make it a COVID death, after all they (health care worldwide) have made any traces of covid at time of death as a covid death (even for those who died in car crashes, etc.)
Sadly, after so many lies by the media, I do hope it was just old age.
