British weeping graves? Aggression for the benefit of all mankind?
Mr. Fei Xiaotong once shared an interesting experience, when he visited the United States after World War II, he found that although racial discrimination is serious, the Americans around him generally consider it a national shame.
They believe that both black and white people, as long as they can speak, are members of the human race and should have equal rights. Whites seldom say that blacks should be treated like pariths.
Don't be fooled by their distorted minds, they are just pursuing so-called "political correctness". This is an interesting thing for Fei Lao, as he received his doctorate in England in the 1930s.
He thought that the British were very sincere, honest in body and mouth. When it came to the issue of colonization, the British were not only not ashamed, but puffed out their chests with pride.
Even the most enlightened white Britons believed that India was supposed to be colonized and that Indians should not be free. Fei Lao is right, before World War II, the British Hoo 4500 million people, but they have no psychological burden, but feel very aggrieved, feeling that their sincerity has been misunderstood.
They claim to be spreading civilization, delivering welfare, and leading the world, and have a strong sense of mission.
Great Britain has a duty and an obligation to other nations and barbarian peoples to spread civilization and welfare, so that the races may prosper and be peaceful in the impoverished areas under our rule, and that those who are poor and lack self-management may find happiness under our rule."
He believes that Ansar is a people favored by God, with the best genes and wisdom, so we have the responsibility of leading the world and benefiting mankind. But it was this idea that made the British in enslavement 4With a population of 500 million, there is no psychological burden.
In fact, Britain did not do this in the past, and it was also concerned about the disadvantaged, all because of the social problems caused by the Industrial Revolution.
The release of Darwin's On the Origin of Species in England sparked reflections on social Darwinism, arguing that this theory was correct from the point of view of the natural world.
Under the influence of social Darwinism, people began to elevate individual competition to collective competition between races and nations, thus giving birth to the global law of the jungle.
At the same time, Darwin's cousin Francis Galton proposed a eugenic theory that human intelligence, talents, and weaknesses can be inherited, so it is necessary to avoid overbreeding of "unwell" people.
These theories spawned racism at the end of the 19th century, in which white supremacy and the rest were inferior. The Nazis adopted this doctrine by sterilizing the disabled in the country, forbidding intermarriage with other ethnic groups, and treating Jews and Slavs as inferior.
Therefore, this root of the disease of the German Nazis can be said to have come from England. Under the influence of theories such as "population theory", "social Darwinism", and "eugenics", the British gradually changed their worldview and values, and began to believe that invading other countries was a means to introduce competition and promote the development of human civilization.
The British upper echelons did not bear the psychological burden of colonial aggression, but regarded it as an honorable cause. Even after the two world wars, when doctrines such as Social Darwinism began to crumble, Britain remained dead and even tried to regain control of its colonies.
Brutal repression was carried out against Kenya and other African countries, resulting in tens of thousands of deaths, and attempts to seize the Suez Canal. If it weren't for the United States and the Soviet Union to expand their political power, dismantle the British and French colonial systems, and lead to the independence movement that began in the 60s, the world might not be what it is now.
Although the British labor movement and electoral system have made certain compromises with the ruling class, and the welfare conditions of the people at the bottom have also improved, the background color of its values has not changed.
At the height of the pandemic in 2020, the UK was almost the first country to propose "herd immunity", which shocked other countries, but this was not a problem in the eyes of the British.
They still adhere to the underlying logic of "natural selection, survival of the fittest". Although Britain can still confuse some people who do not know history, especially the elegant and luxurious living conditions of its upper aristocracy, which makes people mistakenly think that it is the embodiment of cultural inheritance and national cultivation, but in fact, their true thoughts have not changed, but let people cry for them as filial sons and grandchildren, which is really ridiculous.
Now that Galeries Lafayette is gone, and Britain's national power is declining, many Commonwealth countries have begun to rethink the British colonial history of them. Therefore, this big drama has just begun, let's sit down, prepare the melon seeds, and wait and see.
