This sounds like tribe/communist propaganda trying to get the West to hate itself when it is actually the greatest civilization in history ... it is corrupted by liberalism and modernism as of current but that must be recognized and rectified. Otherwise, the West is the best.
Being colonized by the British is the best thing that ever happened to most places.
Not all western nations are the same, and having lost the Christian foundation, they are not what they once were, but they are still the most humane cultures ever to exist. They invented the idea of human rights.
You pretend nations did not eradicate or enslave each other in the past. You clearly don't know old native American or Mediterranean history, where Total annihilation of rival tribes and eradication of their culture was standard practice.
Hes right. The Western world, as a civilization, is perhaps objectively the worst of all major civilizations throughout history. Where else would slavery of all kinds be glorified and sanctified above human dignity? Where else do we see a continuous span of genocide lasting centuries, with the only difference being who is targeted? Where else do we see capitalism abused to the point where communism can even be conceived as a viable alternative?
Africa sold their own to the west. Arabs were the middle men. The west were the first in the history of mankind to make slavery illegal. Africa and Arab Muslim cultures still practice slavery.
Wow look at that.... Now let's do eastern civilization in the same light. Funny thing is you end up seeing the same things criticized here in western civilization. Let's look at middle east civilizations, you end up seeing the same things criticized in western civilization.
So I don't discount that western civilization has been involved in and done bad things. I also don't believe these bad things done are any different from the same bad things done by other non Western civilizations. And if we consider the Rothschild controlled banking systems to be Jewish as is their claimed heritage, then there again we see bad things done by a particular group of people in charge. In this case causing wars and suffering the world over.
So from my perspective what we all have is a sin problem. That sin problem in the people's of the world entices us to choose actions that harm and to not love our neighbors and to turn a blind eye to other evils.
Perhaps this man casting stones would be better served to seek redemption and salvation in Jesus rather than judging whole civilizations while ignoring the evils produced by his own people. Then he could truly make a difference by sharing the gospel with the lost people of the nations he currently pretends to sit in judgement over.
He’s cherry picking many « atrocities » and taking all the Westerners as a unique group. I don’t like his argument: how can he blame « us » for genociding European Jews (more than half of Westerners fought against the perpetrators), then also blame us for the Gaza genocide?
I am going to join in here, because this video is so obviously stupid.
One of the first points I would make is that Israel is not a western country and is not in any way aligned with western civilization. Israelis are also not white. The word "semitic" is a demonym for middle easterners. Both Arabs and jews are semitic people. Effectively, Israelis are ethnic Arabs with a different religion. They are not white or western. Israelis tend to view goy as subhuman enemies, and their intelligence services blackmail and control our politicians so that they can use our military to enforce their will without getting their hands dirty and fleece us of cash and resources while bribing and blackmailing our politicians to go to war, open borders, etc entirely against the will of American/western peoples. I do not argue that Israel is innocent, rather that their atrocities are to be attributed to non-westerners unless you are totally full of shit.
The western genocide myth is also totally ridiculous. American Indians are today much more numerous than they were upon the arrival of white settlers. There were so few Indians upon white arrival that the settlers in some locations believed the new world to be totally empty and it took years before their first encounter with an Indian. A hunter gatherer requires 1-3 square miles of territory to survive and the US is 3M square miles. This entirely discounts any territory unusable due to being covered in water, desert, etc, and also discounts war, famine, disease, etc. It is doubtful that there were more than 1M or so total North American Indians at time of settler arrival. Today there are about 4M pure-blooded natives in the US alone, and about another 6M natives of mixed race. Truthfully, I hope that the current, attempted white genocide has similar results! Foreigners and assorted retarded people often quote numbers like 100M indians slaughtered. While our peoples certainly traded atrocities back and forth for a couple hundred years, and it is also true that our government (NOT OUR PEOPLE) has repeatedly fucked over the indians and should redress their grievances, it is also not even within the realm of possibility that this person believes it to be a genocide. Additionally, without the nation that now exists in North America which was created by white europeans, there would be no opportunity to redress grievances with a ruler on this continent without fighting that ruler to the death like a chimpanzee.
Everyone reading this should google "Pawnee Morning Star Ritual" to see a good example of the type of civilizations that lying communist pussies elevate above our own glorious civilization.
Concentration Camps - It is true that some western countries have at some times used this idea. It is totally ridiculous to pretend as if this idea was not also employed by all other civilizations everywhere. A person making the argument that westerners are entirely responsible for this phenomenon is full of it. Are we saying that nobody outside the west ever thought of mass-imprisoning perceived enemies in a central location so they could be watched and controlled? Is that really what you believe? Why don't we go ahead and check on the Uighurs in China! What are they up to? Oh yeah! Those Muslims, who are currently mass-imprisoned in a communist state that outlaws religion, are being forced to eat pork! Literally force fed a food that is against their religion. Did you know that the Chinese also separate the men from their wives and daughters in these camps? It's OK though, because they send Chinese into the camps to offer "affection and comfort" to the wives and daughters of these men. Imagine that! Imagine being locked in a camp, separated from your wives and daughters, and watching and listening as your captors fuck them. This is happening right now and today, and you don't seem to care. Also of note is that when Germans did this, it was western Christian civilization that stopped them. The rest of the world didn't care. Today, Hitler is among the most respected "philosophers" in the middle east, and Mein Kampf is a top-5 amazon bestseller throughout the Islamic world.
Also of note is that in China, factory workers are considered property of the associated factory. When China builds a new industrial city, they build it completely empty and then they go out into the countryside and gather new citizens for the city by burning their farms and towns, shooting anyone that resists, and putting them all in trucks bound for the new city. Then, they are the property of the factory organization itself. Neat trick! How is this different from slavery, in your opinion? If you own shares of stock in a Chinese manufacturer, even through an ETF, you are a current, present-day owner of slaves.
African slavery and the colonization of Africa is another among my favorite anti-western tropes. While there are many very bad aspects of the colonization of Africa, and it is also true that there were many very bad actors among the westerners, there was good reason for the initial invasion. From the late 1500s through the 1700s, North African and Middle Eastern Muslims took so many slaves from the coast of Europe that the coasts of Spain, France, Ireland, and parts of other countries were entirely depopulated. This is actually true. The Africans and Muslims stole and enslaved so many Europeans that there was almost nobody living on the coast of these countries anymore at that time. Western diplomats had begged them to stop for decades before it was finally decided that we had to put an end to it through invasion. The invasion and colonization of Africa was initially, by any reasonable standard, totally justified. We should have done it sooner. Someone else has already said it, but most countries colonized by England are better off today because of it. It does not erase the atrocities, but there it is.
In terms of African slavery, I will admit that this is not the West's most distinguished moment. Slavery is unacceptable. However, it is also true that most African slaves were shipped east to China and the Arab states. Around 2/3 of all African slaves were shipped eastward rather than westward. The reason that there are no black populations in those countries today is that the Chinese slavers drove spikes through the uterus of every slave woman and castrated the men. They hated blacks so much that they were willing to pay double (the sterilization killed about 50% of all their slaves, and they also had to buy the ones that died) to ensure that all African slaves sent to their countries were incapable of ever breeding. Meanwhile, those Africans that were shipped westward mostly did not come to the US. About 2/3 of western slaves were actually shipped to South America, where slavery conditions were so awful that they were not able to maintain a slave population without constantly importing new ones. North American slaves did not have to be replaced, because we took much better care of ours. Of the remaining 1/3 of westward slaves, another 2/3 of those went to sugar plantations in the Caribbean, which is not part of the US. The remainder went to the US. The US was among the most minor players in the entire worldwide slave trade. It is also true that the first three civilizations on earth to outlaw slavery were Scandinavians in the late Middle Ages, the UK in the 1830s, and the US in the 1860s. If an English navy vessel encountered a slaving ship in the 1850s on the high seas, they would shoot the crew, sink the ship, and free the slaves. Do you think the Ottomans would have done that? The Japanese? Mongols? Did you know that the Ottomans once sent an expedition to Iceland and STOLE EVERY WOMAN, and that it took hundreds of years for the population to recover? I mean, I get it. I would be tempted to do the same if I usually had to settle for middle eastern girls. It is on objectively true statement that the worldwide anti-slavery movement was 100% driven by western christians. Nobody else ever even conceived the idea of ending slavery but us. WE WERE THE ONLY ONES WHO WANTED IT STOPPED.
It is also true that US Christians immediately began chipping away at slavery the instant the country was founded. Among the first bills signed into law by President Washington outlawed the trading of slaves on US-flagged ships. George Washington was a worldwide thought and action leader regarding the eradication of slavery. Slavery as an institution had existed for all time but was pushed out of the US after only 75 years. In addition, it is notable that in the very next election after the civil war, we immediately seated former black slaves as members of congress and senate. Meanwhile Brazil, which had so many slaves that the present-day population is 70% black, has still never elected a black politician at the federal level. Are we to look to them as an example?
In conclusion, while it is true that western countries have committed plenty of atrocities, we are also obviously and objectively better across most of these areas than all other civilizations. It is totally undeniable.
Finally, as a white man, I would like to apologize for the following atrocities: rocketry, powered flight, electric power generation and distribution, radio, personal computing, the internal combustion engine, refrigeration, modern medicine, spaceflight, planar geometry, euclidean geometry, democracy, the republic, motion pictures, television, concrete, the idea of immutable human rights, cheddar cheese, beef that doesn't taste like shit, calculus, the telephone, radar, lasers, TNT, rock n' roll, classical music, and most music that doesn't sound like a box of cats being sprayed with hydrochloric acid, the roman alphabet, pizza, pianos, guitars, ballet, the steam engine, railroads, highways, whiskey, mass production, etc. Sorry about that!
Can't say he's wrong but the bitch who posted that vid is a socialist loving commie!

Why is he dressed like a westerner then?
More selective history offered by commies.
Being colonized by the British is the best thing that ever happened to most places.

And concentration camps...

Read how Babylon handled conquered nations.
Well, that sums it up.

Where else would slavery of all kinds be glorified and sanctified above human dignity? Where else do we see a continuous span of genocide lasting centuries, with the only difference being who is targeted?

A godless society is a perverse society.
There is slavery to this day in the middle east..destroyed libya has public slave auctions
Africa sold their own to the west. Arabs were the middle men. The west were the first in the history of mankind to make slavery illegal. Africa and Arab Muslim cultures still practice slavery.
We are not a democracy.

This is very high level propaganda. Some truths but grossly distorts and hides a lot.
No people would survive a critical analysis of their entire history.
Basically: Now do the East.
