belter of a post

starting to think I'm a creative genius
just haven't found my area of expertise yet

Big mixup with attendance. I was ill and missed a bunch but then I misread the date for the attendance meeting like a nonce and got withdrawn
Stupidity really, but also a lack of care
So what toil should I start then lad? Is there any way to get paid to post on /brit/?

imagine being the personal physician of the totalitarian leader of an insanely militarised and nationalised superpower, and giving him enough drugs to make him fully mental but not enough to kill him
baffling
bamboozling
boggles the mind

>So what toil should I start then lad? Is there any way to get paid to post on /brit/?
start a company

love fredposting

bit sad to think that future generations of old people won't try to stuff their grandchildren or other visitors with food and tea anymore.
really weird thought, but that's only an "old person thing" because they were the last UK generation to grow up with food scarcity, so there's both (a) a desire to keep family fed, and (b) an underlying social norm to show how much food they've got. (see the WW2-era documentary for visiting US soldiers, the warning to pretend they're not very hungry to avoid eating their proud British hosts out of house and home.)

the link between economics and culture is underexplored. you could even see it in the 1980s, where consoles were far bigger in America since middle class parents had more money to burn, while Computers were bigger here because they were cheaper, easier to pirate the games on, often manufactured in the UK, and you could pretend they were multi-purpose tools for homework. though with that said, we've already half forgotten our own history in favour of just remembering the much more enjoyable American version of the 1980s where people had loadsamoney, nintendo systems, and a leader who at the very least came across as friendly.

They weren't really racist, lad. Ian Smith, and most of the whites, were very much against Apartheid and segregation of the different races of people. They allowed educated (by the white government) blacks to vote, they offered free education and provided really cheap healthcare for the blacks.

only time my car failed the MOT was when the rear plate light was out, but I think they changed the bulb for free because they didn't mention it at all, and it wasn't until I looked at it online that it showed up

personally I'm going to wait for a benevolent AI to take over the world, that'd be the perfect system

FOY

Rhodesia was a British colony known as Southern Rhodesia that was spectacularly successful in the first half of the 1900s, developing extremely rapidly and becoming the breadbasket of Africa

it was ruled almost entirely by Brits in the government, but the UK policy at the time was that it would only grant independence to colonies who had majority rule.

The Rhodesians wanted independence, but balked at the idea of majority rule. If you're a racist, this is because "hurr durr blacks cant govern", but i think its just because the existing political class (made up entirely of white brits) had a monopoly on political experience and expertise, and it would be foolish to replace a competent and successful government with a bunch of amateurs

so instead the Rhodesian leader, Ian Smith, told the UK to fuck off and declared unilateral independence.

then a BRUTAL guerilla war started, with the Rhodesian government against two opposing factions simultaneously, with civilian deaths abounding. But no other country would recognise Rhodesia, so the world stood by while the terrorists ran amok.

Eventually the terrorists won, led by Robert Mugabe, who WAS racist and who kicked out all the whites who actually had experience with politics and replaced them with enthusiastic but inexperienced amateurs.

As a result over the next 30 years Zimbabwe went from being a prosperous economy and huge food exporter to a 3rd world shithole and dependent on UN food aid drops, which restored Ian Smiths lost reputation as people realised just how good they had it under his rule.

Smith died in 2007.

good post

the neoliberal way

>FOY

ironically if rhodesia hadn't gone independent unilaterally a moderate black leader would probably have been elected
going independent built up support for terrorists who then had to be allowed to stand in the elections

Crazy how nearly all the black Zimbabweans down here love Smith.

under certain circumstances, racism is very practical, unifying, and (by some definitions) intelligent
it should be rejected on grounds of hypocrisy
no reasonable person would accept false assumptions made about them based solely on their race
so making assumptions (that by definition may be false) about someone else based solely on their race is either unreasonable or hypocrisy (or both)

literally never had that happen on any car my family has had
think you're getting taken for a ride mate

Plants feel pain too. You're OK with eating them because they can't scream.

While acknowledging the privileged position whites had under Smith, several commentators have latterly agreed with his claims that many black Zimbabweans preferred him to Mugabe with hindsight.[313] "Smith's image improved inversely as Mugabe's plummeted," Johnson wrote. "When he walked the streets of Harare, Africans would almost queue up to grasp his hand and wish him well."[285] "If you were to go to Harare today [in 2007] and ask ordinary black Zimbabweans who they would rather have as their leader—Smith or Mugabe—the answer would be almost unanimous," Boynton asserted; "And it would not be Mugabe."[294] Smith's death prompted strongly condemnatory reports in Zimbabwe's state media. The Deputy Minister of Information Bright Matonga accused Smith of being a racist, blamed him for the deaths of thousands and asserted that he would "not be mourned or missed here by any decent person".[314] Reactions from Zimbabweans on the street were mixed, however; according to Western journalists, many expressed sadness.[315]

colonialism was bad
colonialism achieved some good things

not a contradiction

>Plants feel pain too. You're OK with eating them because they can't scream.

'member this

my jigglybits are rubbing against my mutton chops if you know what I mean

NO! EVERYTHING MUST BE OBJECTIVELY GOOD OR BAD! NOTHING CAN BE GREY!!!

you're sucking your own testes?

white minority in southern Rhodesia is fairly successful, colony attracts lots of skilled immigration from al over and quality of life is fairly high for the natives as well, lacking the apartheid system of SA.
after WWII there is pressure to decolonize but Rhodesians had see how the white minority was treated in places like Zaire and other former colonies (they were hunted down and slaughtered or else forced to run) and they say the native blacks are simply not capable of running the nation on their own in an instant like that.
Britain says fuck off and so Ian Smith declares independence leading to an international boycott lead by the UK (but not many nations follow through with it since Rhodesia has lots of exports nations want and strong industry)
Bush war starts because the USSR uses black nationalism as a way to gain control over Africa which at the time was mostly allied with the USA.
bush war goes on for years but is contained north of the Zambezi river due to support from Portugal on the east and western flanks.

eventually Portugal is forced to give up its colonies and Zimbabwe is completely surrounded but lasts for years longer until eventually terrorist actions by the black communists forces them to sign a treaty, which is quickly disregarded once Mugabe seizes power.
exactly what whites feared ends up happening but many had already left before he took power since once the bush war was over it was only a matter of time.
Mugabe wastes time being a typical African "Big Man" ruler and leaves the country a mess

>But no other country would recognise Rhodesia
SA and Portugal recognised and supported Rhodesia - one of the reasons it became apparent the war was unwinnable was because Portugal had a coup, released its colonies and suddenly Rhodesia was unable to obtain oil through Mozambique.

It's also worth pointing out that throughout the '80s and early '90s Zimbabwe was pretty prosperous and life was extremely good for white Zimbabweans - it was only when Bob started the land reforms in the late '90s that things went to shit (also Blair's government reneged on the Lancaster House Agreement, giving Mugabe the pretext).

aha you know this lads!

not glancing at a single pixel of these essays

Because they know he was right. He never once said that blacks will never be able to help govern and run the country, he simply argued that they be educated first. The complete opposite of what we did with our niggers here during Apartheid. He constantly spoke about how blacks and whites must live side by side as one people.

business idea: align with the natives and attack any JFs from a flag other than your own

I'm 27 and I feel like only now is my life starting to improve a bit. Worst 12 years of my life might be over, lads. Don't know what to feel anymore. Totally desensitized to the world now.

when you say bob do you mean mugabe?

>being a y*nk

cheers
unironically read it all
was surprised to see mugabe show up in that story
lessons must be learned

A lot of white Zimbabweans called him "Uncle Bob" during the benign period of his rule.

Zimbabwe's crop in the late '80s was actually higher than Rhodesia's before the bush war

sad but what can you do

but it wasn't until the 90s they started redistributing land then?

Don't tell me we've got Bolton cunts on Sup Forums

Fun Fact: Before 1939, Eritreans had the highest standard of living in all of Africa, and Eritrea was one of the few African colonies where Europeans outnumbered natives (Italians made up 56% of the population) or with any industry (FIAT built one of the largest factories in the world at the time there).

god how come we all fucked up decolonisation so badly
