With the exception of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Islam is currently responsible for a majority of the war happening in the world and has been for the last two decades.
The world would be a better place without Islam.
Did you comment on the wrong post? What does Islam have to do with OP?
Current Indian government is full of Hindu ethnofasicists that are deeply anti-islam.
Plenty of people will grab literally any opportunity and quite a few non-opportunities to rant. I'm a freaking edgelord atheist myself, but some of it is just embarrassing.
Probably a Hindu nationalist
I think that's just because Hindus have been poor in history. Give them power and they'll show they're just a cosmetic difference away from Islam. You remember the murder on live TV? Do you know what the murderers chanted after shooting? Jai Shree Ram is just the new Allah Akbar.
hahhahahhahahahahahhahaha. God that's one hell of a warped perspective.
It's not the muslms who lynch people transporting cows now, is it?
Hindutva shithead.
You mean because certain countries (The US) keeps starting wars against muslims??? Do you also blame jews for the second world war?
In places destabilized by colonialists…
Bring back the Ottoman and the Mughal empires!
Most countries got a lot more stable under colonialism. Its only after they left they went back to destability and genocide.
Yeah, things are pretty stable when you ruthlessly crush dissent
That looks like Congo. Lots of colonial powers were against what happened in the Congo. Pretty sure that let to some sort of convention.
Lots of bad shit happened but we was talking stability. Bad shit happened before and after also.
Are we talking about the multitudes of manufactured draughts?
Or the genocide of the colonised population?
Fuck right off with colonial apologism. Colonisers have built their wealth, by exploiting countries, deepening existing social fractures, and leaving the countries worse than they found them in most aspects. The technical growth or industrialisation that the colonising powers purport to have shared (such as trains), was largely possible on the backs of the economic leverage they enjoyed on the back of the excessive taxation of the colonies^[1]^. The Indian region for all it's social issues, was a contributor to about 25% world's GDP before the stabilising force of the various colonisers arrived. In 1947, that was 2%.
Learn your history before you talk out of your ass.
The industrial revolution really had a huge affect on gdp around the world. That solved the issues of famine within india. But will probably lead to more with climate change now.
My god man, just sign up for some history classes at your nearest university. Or maybe just listen to some podcast or something. This is just horribly insensitive, and I don't even think you know why it is so.
The gdp of the west exploded because of the industrial revolution. To claim that wasn't the largest force for changes in gdp is madness. It separated gdp so directly from labour that gdp stopped being so heavily related to population.
You can't stabilise a country by exploiting them.
The Colonialism-defending ghoul has logged on
Geez man have you studied history and geopooitics at all?
America is responsible for a good few as well.
