Those were the days, everything was good under french rule. If you say the contrary you are a birch and a liar and they deserved it anyway.
Slavery, European: 😡😡😡
Slavery, Arab: 🤩🤩🤩
Same thing with the USSR tankies: when they invade countries, steal their resources and take control/put a puppet in charge, it’s liberation. When Europe or the US do the same – colonialism and oppression.
Bruh the Romans be like 👌 beautiful
RACIST!!!!!!! PIPO OF COLOR CAN’T BE COLONIZERSSSSSS!!!!!!!
“Imperialism was good when my people did it and evil when my people suffered it” is an unironic take a lot of people have in this sub.
Charles Martell isn’t evil for defending France against invaders neither is Suleiman for trying to retake Jerusalem from invaders.
These were all elites sacrificing the lives of the people under them to consolidate/stregthen their families’ power, of course they are not concerned about the lives the people they are invading, there are some more evil and some less evil but imperialism is just bad in general.
They are mad because they can’t do it anymore
i think it’s the nature of european colonialism that’s controversial. for example no one thinks negatively of the greek or roman empires which shared more in common with uymayyad and ottoman empires for example
and it’s hard to think otherwise. the belgium and british empires for example were more barbaric and parasitic than empires 2k years older
Whoah that’s a pretty racist thing to assume
Empires are lame either way
We conquer the world tho, every country in the world was either conquered or had to westernized to stay relevant. Every governement system in the world is based on european governement system.
They can cope as they want, but in the end we won the battle of idea.
I’d say it’s like that for own conquering vs being conquered in general.
Ufff, one week of extreme right wing electoral shitposting ahead
It’s even weirder that European academics hold this sentiment as well.
I lived in the Middle East for 6 years and I never heard a single Arab there say anything remotely similar to this post.
Is it something that Arabs say in France, Sweden or Germany?
Everyone was prosperous in Islamic conquests, even the ones invaded. However, that was not the case of western empires
