Abos objectively aren't human

If you read Montesquieu's Spirit of the Laws, you would understand what makes Alexander a better conqueror. You would also understand that even the best conqueror is still blameable as that kind of international aggression is unjustifiable.
Alternatively, if you read Herodotus, you would see how destructive internally and externally wanton conquering is. You would see how large becomes small and satraps are not sustainable.

>remember when european colonists bought slaves from africa, kept them illiterate, broke up their families, and made them work in the fields for generations until freeing them, after which they still lacked a huge amount of rights and were treated as second-class citizens until the civil rights act of 1964?
>remember genghis khan in 1162, alexander the great in 356 (bc), or good ol' tariq in 670?

Somehow doesn't have the same ring to it.

Why the fuck do you think calling someone a mongoloid is still a slur? The guy was like the big bad of a bunch of movies too. Again, retarded.

So because minorities are inferior we can do whatever we want to them?

>>8732754
they are inferior as people and as moral agents compared to me, so they should be disposed of if you will, like we do pests etc

>>8732768
You are assuredly an inferior person and moral agent compared to many people out there. Should they be able to dispose of you as they want? Or are we only applying your theory on a group level?

White people hold themselves to a higher standard than nonwhites and at the same time blame themselves for everything that goes wrong in the world. Whites secretly think they're better than everyone else, as though they're some spacefaring race administering to primitives in a science fiction novel. White thinking is heavily deterministic: for example when Tyrone gets high on crack and murders someone, white liberals chalk it up to poverty and lack of education. They take away Tyrone's agency as a human being. Tyrone becomes a victim almost of a disease: the disease of poverty. Liberals think they ought to check their privilege and join the underclass, but somehow they never take action any material way. They might retweet someone or buy a fair-trade tee shirt but they would be aghast at the thought of moving into some a and giving up their macbook and daily mocha.

And it's not just prosperity/poverty that is a matter of chance, white liberal thought is heavily contaminated with relativism and historicism. It's just an accident, pure luck, "Guns, Germs and Steel" that allowed Europeans to build civilization and conquer everyone else, says the liberal. Nobody lives in a safe, technologically advanced, liberal democracy because they or their ancestors were hardworking and shrewd, and nobody is a citizen of a third world tin pot dictatorship because of any cultural failing on the part of his forebears. Not that there's anything wrong with the "developing" world of course! Their way of life is perfectly valid, it's only the pernicious influences of neo-colonialism and capital that makes their countries hellholes. Funnily enough, middle/upper middle class white students rarely do anything to alleviate the deleterious effects of capital on the third world. If their iwhatever-the-fuck doesn't get its precious rare earth metals, they wouldn't be able to browse tumblr! The African miners and child slaves will just have to wait.

Libs would like to praise nonwhites when they accomplish something laudable, the way a parent would praise a precocious child. That's when the biggest contradictions start to appear, and a double standard is applied wherein white peoples' accomplishments are downplayed as the result of historical luck, but nonwhites' accomplishments are presented as resounding and universal. White failures are interpreted as the result of deep moral faults, but when nonwhites screw up (and screw up they do) it's never treated as something they could have avoided doing. Same goes for any other pet demographic group, eg gay people, trans, women.

>tl;dr: white people think they're superior beings and judge other white people as such.

If you aren't a 6'2 white male, making at least 6 figures and self-employed, genius level intellect, with a PhD, perfect mental health, and physical health, able to lift 2/3/4/5, and with the charisma to become the leader of any given country, then you are sub-human, and should kill yourself

>>8733020
Also, you need to be attractive enough to be a male model, or else you are subhuman
