I believe he's a firm believer in the belief that melanin is some sort of highly volatile psychoactive drug like PCP that will turn you into a frothing lunatic if you have too much of it. I mean, how else could he possibly explain his belief that skin lightening is the path to enlightenment.

It's even a thing in the UK. While we had our own particular brand of nastiness when it came to slavery, I always thought the whole house negro/field negro thing was an American thing but it's not.

The irony of citing the Taliban as being the prime targets of Western cultural imperialism is that were it not for the west arming them when they were still the mujahedeen they would have been a small insurgent force crushed by the Soviets. The white man's burden went slightly awry that time. Maybe we'll get it right next time.

It obviously was. But how anyone can look at that conflict and the literal decades long shitstorm that followed afterwards and seriously think 'Military action definitely works!' is beyond me. And the situation in Africa is a tiny, tiny bit more complicated than 'Bad men called Boko Haram show up, everything is terrible', and once again an excellent example of Imperialism being a grand endeavour that only makes things better.
