I prefer those who deny to those who actually advocate war against the
"unwashed masses of this planet".


If I meet anybody sho does that I shall be sure to hiss at them.

And have a hangover from the colonial
empires.


Do you mean middle class idealists in Germany who defend the decades of
brutal soviet colonialism in Europe, or is this a reference to the
expansionist desires of the Spanish colonial descendants in Buenos Aires?

No, I mean people like you are are nostalic of the past imperialist
glories of their masters, of Hitler, of the British Empire (which is
still creating "commanders", I read in today's paper), of "Algerie
Française", slavery, the genocide of the American Indians, the Spanish
Inquisition, and what have you.

Disgusting

Nope.

of Hitler,


Don't be silly. I'm not the one claiming that Hitler's aggression was
prompted by a desire to free the oppressed of the British empire.

Indeed. Hideously embarassing, and I wish we'd stop doing it.

Française", slavery, the genocide of the American Indians, the Spanish

Soviet colonialism in central and eastern Europe? Chinese colonialism in
Tibet? Argetinian colonialism in the Atlantic?

Well, it doesn't matter if you adore the English equivalent.

Types like you, if they are German, are nostalgic of imperialist
policies of the _German_ capitalist class, as embodied by Kaiser Wilhelm
(the one of the hun speech) and Hitler. It doesn't matter which chief
robber a friend of robbery does adore, what counts is that he adores the
imperialist robbery.

Golly, how remarkable.

Well yes. That is why I am equally happy to condemn British imperialism
in India, French imperialism in Indo-china, Soviet imperialism in
central Europe and Spanish/Argentinian imperialism in the South Atlantic.

Sincerely.

What about the Holocaust, Lüko? Did it happen? Did it matter?
