Wait, whites are the biggest victims now? Historically and now? So they have historically lost but the winners are giving whites the trophies? I always thought of whites as the victors in a certain sense. So why are they weaker than all of the other races again?
The history of 'Whites' is far different than the 'permitted' history books report. Did you know the first slaves to America were White? Up to one-half of all the arrivals in the American colonies were Whites slaves and they were America's first slaves. These Whites were slaves for life, long before Blacks ever were. This slavery was even hereditary. White children born to White slaves were enslaved too. The Establishment has created the misnomer of "indentured servitude" to explain away and minimize the fact of White slavery. But bound Whites in early America called themselves slaves. Nine-tenths of the White slavery in America was conducted without indentures of any kind but according to the so-called "custom of the country," as it was known, which was lifetime slavery administered by the slave merchants themselves.
In George Sandy’s laws for Virginia, Whites were enslaved "forever." The service of Whites bound to Berkeley's Hundred was deemed "perpetual."
I'm not really buying America had to carry the crucifix and be sacrificed for all of Christendom's slavery bit. In comparison to Islam and the rest of the world, Christianity wasn't big promoters of slavery. In fact, the Catholic Church condemned slavery in 1435. The Catholic Church unhesitatingly condemned racial slavery as soon as it began. In 1435, six decades before Columbus sailed, Pope Eugene IV condemned the enslavement of the black natives of the Canary Islands, and ordered their European masters to manumit the enslaved within 15 days, under pain of excommunication. In 1537, Pope Paul III condemned the enslavement of West Indian and South American natives, and explicitly attributed that evil, "unheard of before now," to "the enemy of the human race," Satan.
Papal condemnations of slavery were repeated by Popes Gregory XIV (1591), Urban VIII (1639), Innocent XI (1686), Benedict XIV (1741), and Piux VII (1815). In 1839, Pope Gregory XVI wrote,
"We, by apostolic authority, warn and strongly exhort... that no one in the future dare to bother unjustly, despoil of their possessions, or reduce to slavery Indians, Blacks or other such peoples."
Pope Leo XIII (1890), too, condemned slavery, and so did the Second Vatican Council
So, how did slavery continue in the Vatican influenced sphere? Most Americans don't realize either that the transatlantic slave trade was driven by the sugar trade and rum. By the very nature of this fact, it redirects us to where sugar cane grew. This of course was in the tropical regions of the Caribbean and Central and South America. This is where 97% of the transatlantic slaves went. The 3% came to America later. According to one well-regarded census, 9.6 million Africans arrived alive in the so-called "New World" from the 16th century through the 19th century. Of these, 427,000, were brought to what is now the United States.
I could continue and talk about Islam and Judaism's belief in slavery and its widespread involvement in slave trade. Europe as far away as Iceland have been the recipients of Islamic raids enslaving people living in coastal dwellings. The entire Dark Ages was a result of Islamic salve trade and piracy on the Mediterranean Sea and elsewhere. The estimates of Europeans being kidnapped and enslaved is unknown, but the estimates from that time frame is in the millions. Slavery is actually now bigger and widespread than it ever was.
