And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Social Justice and Militant Political Correctness are interested in you
Very interested. Even if you aren't interested in them.
Just in case you think this is all that far fetched. Here are students in South Africa arguing against science and for magic. Disagree, and you're a racist colonizer.
We're DOOMED! But before totally surrendering to P.C. insanity pray for that 50 mile wide asteroid travelling at 18,000 MPH to smack down on the earth. At least that way it'll be quick and painless.
that was the little campaign sign in my front yard 2 years ago. Trump or SMOD. In my manse most of the people thought the meteor of death was preferable.
I was going to read all the commments before commenting but that bitch rearing up on her hind feet to tell a commenter that the rules were all supposedly agreed and that all opinions would be respected. That poor bastard only tried to put forth his opinion and we're going to have do that over the heaps of dead bodies who don't like incorrect opinions.
Same mentality that only recognized grass huts and no knowledge of the wheel of all peoples below the Sahara Desert. Everything in Africa of any substance required science and Europeans.
I think I understand the science issue and have to agree. To properly de-colonize they need to remove all western influences and wipe the slate clean - correct? That would mean plowing up every road and demolishing every building made of milled wood, brick, steel and glass, removing all technology, removing wells, sanitation plants, power plants, hospital/medicine, and any other technology that is above stone age concepts.
What I find amusing is that when Europeans colonized South Africa there were no inhabitants in the region. The land was too difficult to live in for the primitives that lived elsewhere in Africa. Western technology allowed the taming of the land.
i'm sorry to interject but you are wrong. with these people there is no wiping THE SLATE CLEAN. In 66 million years they never got around to developing any sort of written language outside of Egypt.
prior to the European settlers showing up in sub-Sahara Africa, there were no permanent cities. there were no permanent "states". there was tribalism and there was, well Africa. hunter gathers and sometimes farming. maybe cattle. no permanent settlements. when the water and air was fouled by the byproducts of eating, the people moved. lots of land available. no issues. territories were flexible. the women put the food on the plate and the men killed each other. that was life. who's to say what they now have in southern Africa is better than what they had before the European settlers showed up. I suppose defining "better" is the place to start.
Well spoken individuals like the above, worm their way into positions of power, the results are then predictable. Such folks are utterly incapable of any form of technical or scientific understanding. They have evolved fantastic and well honed social skills. All higher mammals do, a great example is that dogs are extremely social. But social prowess has nothing in common with technical ability. Her grandfather was not an engineer, nor any of her ancestors. I need not mention that technology is the sole reason for our prosperity. From running hot water, to electrical power, to refrigeration and powered transportation. One need look no farther than the stunningly vacant list of innovations from similarly minded people.
