White people got a superiority complex....
Elevz:
Just as there's no justifying your behavior right now, there's no justifying the racism of the past. There are ways to explain it though, and they are not hard to come by.
When the Europeans started exploring the world, they didn't know much about diversity. Science wasn't developed; they didn't know history; they didn't know biology. Their lives were practical yet deeply religious, and basically they were extremely closed minded. They simply didn't know anything better than their close environment. Then they hopped on their newly invented ships that could cross the lengths of the oceans. They found new land, far away from home, and came across what looked like human beings, only then with dark skins and different features. These people danced around totem poles, walked around naked and acted very different.
Imagine the thoughts of someone who goes on a glorious boat trip to explore new horizons and become a hero, to find out there's creatures living in the woods who don't wear clothes. They look more like monkeys than the humans they're used to, and their behavior seemed savage too. Do you really think it's weird for these ignorant explorers to think they came across some sub par human beings? These new creatures didn't live by the bible, and they reminded them of animals.
They went home, told stories about these new creatures, and the thoughts that these creatures were subpar humans were easily spread in a conservative and ignorant world. It took integration in real life and major developments in the study of biology before the views changed, but all of that came after rich whites had exploited Africans for centuries.
Yes, the whites back then got joy from torturing blacks. Remember we're talking about times when whites themselves enjoyed hooliganism in a major way. People were having fights in the middle of the streets, just to prove their manhood. Surely the development of western cultures has been a long road past savage behavior, violence, ignorance and closed mindedness. In no way are these things to be justified, but considering the background, it can be explained.
As the Europeans started to develop their sciences, slowly came the realization that blacks are not subpar human beings. Biology proved that we're practically equal - slight physical features aside (blacks generally have wider noses, blacks generally have nappy hair, blacks generally have more athletic features). We now know the amount of success black people can achieve, given the right circumstances. We know men are equal by their nature, but not equal in their achievements. There's great opportunities to be taken advantage of now. Don't you think it's time to stop bitching in your medieval mindstate, and come to terms with today's reality? To blame today's whites for the history of their ancestors, that's really ridiculous. There's African tribes which glorify rape, but I don't blame you for that either, or should I?

these are the statements that cause my view on your people to never change..... you will never see a pale face ever just talk about the negative shit their people do they always got to add something..... These so called African tribes that you claim glorify rape ( which eye don't even believe) did they go around raping the white race???? NO so shut the fuck up with that weak ass comparison...

All right, so it's okay for you to condemn white people for the misbehavior of their fellows, but blacks don't take the blame for the savage behavior of some African tribes? Virtuoso would call this double think; I say you're one hypocritical idiot.

I did not say they rape, kill, castrate and hang whites. You need to learn to read. I said there's African tribes where boys are told to rape girls from other tribes to prove their manhood. I've seen this on a documentary once in a course on intercultural affairs. I don't remember the name of the documentary or the name of the tribe involved, but I do remember seeing it.
You blaming all whites in 2008 for the history of their ancestors, is equal to me blaming you for the degrading actions of some random African tribe. However, I do not blame you for something you aren't guilty of. Just as I am not guilty of the racism you're accusing me of. Yet you do find it necessary to condemn all whites in the blink of an eye, just like that. That's racism on your behalf, regardless of whether you're actually burning whites or not. You are the KKK, only then reversed. What's the difference? There is none, except for the target. For someone who studied factology you sure have a hard time grasping simple logic.
