Brother in law is a racist (lemmygrad.ml)

So, I had a conversation with my sisters husband about politics, he gifted me a book (the power of geography) , which he claimed to be leftist..... because it merely mentioned colonialism. He framed that as anti-white racism and how we, the 'whites', should be proud of our 'accomplishments' and how it's badass that 'we' conquered the entire world.

He then further went on to mention that after colonialism 'ended' the natives didn't know how to do anything, because they kicked the smart whites out.

What the hell do I do about this nutjob? Is there any hope for him? Should I even try to convince him that he's an absolutely moron?

What about Mongols? Wasn't there a famous dude who expanded the empire till Poland? Does it count or is the skin colour not white enough?

Maybe the Mongols were too religiously and racially tolerant and humane, so they weren't "badass" enough for him.
