Black girl with Rwandan genocide mom survivor anon here. Please check out the link; TW for blatant racism. Can we just nuke Europe at this point? /hj
I never thought I'd say this, but I'm glad Trump is so fucking incompetent at his attempted fascist takeover and will likely kill the far right's legitimacy when he's out of office or six feet under.
I’m not sure if other brothers and sisters are up to date with what’s been happening in the world. But currently, there’s this movement called "Save Europe" that focuses on complaining about immigration to Europe and I'm fed up with Europeans pretending they’re the victims.
They bemoan the supposed crime, creation of so-called, "no go zones" and the strain on social resources. They talk a lot about Muslims, too, but a significant amount of it is dedicated specifically against Africans.
It is truly astonishing how much the Europeans in this movement love to strip African immigration of any historical context. I suspect it's because they know it would be inconvenient to their narrative.
They raped African men, women and children throughout slavery, colonialism and sexual exploitation, but it was seen as completely acceptable since back then Africans were property and "inferior." But now, that Africans are free, it’s a problem for them and we’re "diluting" their race (the hypocrisy) If they wanted to keep their race so pure, why did they force Africans to have sex with them?
To add to this, their continent pillaged Africa for centuries, amassing wealth by creating extractive pipelines from their colonies to their countries. Now that people are climbing onto those pipelines and going where they lead (to states that were built upon their stolen resources) suddenly Europeans have a problem this arrangement.
Not by condemning colonialism or forcing their governments to make proper amends, or to at least redress their contribution to the underdevelopment of Africa in the post-colonial era. No, instead they think the problem is African migrants. They talk about their fear of them and how European women are in danger.
All without the the slightest bit of awareness of how they got in that situation. How the fear they feel is a direct consequence of their continent's behavior.
Before anyone accuses me of excusing criminality (much of which is oversensationalized, anyway), you should understand that I'm actually condemning it, in the strongest terms, by saying look what happens when you commit the most vile crimes imaginable against a continent for centuries and treat people escaping from a human catastrophe they caused like garbage, some of that will follow you home. Chickens always come home to roost. And to make matters even worse, the sheer refusal to help integrate refugees into Europe or treat them as people is appalling. You can say what you will about America, but as a black woman, I have NEVER been called the N-word IRL once in my life; at most, I got microaggressions or ignorance, and I live in a very red territory. I have been called the N-word at least dozens of times online, all by Europeans. All while denying that they're racist and supporting the people who will drag their countries back to a dark age.
And unlike America, they don't have the gift of blundering incompetence looking to sabotage democracy. As bad as Trump's fallout has and will be for coming generation, and I am not denying that, at least America's looking fast to recover from it due to the fascist takeover failing miserably due to our Great Nemesis being a fucking moron. I fear it'll be much worse for Europe, especially as the Middle East is slowly becoming uninhabitable.
Then people will say that "not all European countries committed colonialism, so why should the continent absorb these consequences in a wider manner?" The answer is that Europe benefited from the improved economic conditions of the colonial states, for their comparatively higher standards of living than colonized countries.
People have been conditioned that Europe is enlightened and intelligent compared to America being vulgar and uncivilized, and while there are some points to consider, the fact of the matter is that Europe is the progenitor of all the current societal problems that the modern world suffers from, especially due to imperialism, colonialism, racism, queerphobia, etc. Everything is downstream of that.
Europe's biggest problem even now is liberal apathy and limp dicked condemnation of America's belligerence, UK's and Frances rampant islamophobia and anti-immigrant discrimination, UKs wretched transphobia, Germany's kowtowing to Israel, etc. Not to mention that a lot of their advancements are only made because a lot of their populations are homogenous, and mostly white.
Racism itself is still so prevalent, that even extremely passing biracials like Meghan Markle are still treated with such vicious vitriol, and for what?
I completely understand your response and feelings towards Europe. It's a slew of countries over there that play at being better than the US, when that is an extremely low bar to pass.
