    Yes. And if he hadn’t slaughtered his White allies. Or been so oppressive to his own people I would probably think he was a pretty decent guy. He wasn’t. Like people in general he was a complicated and morally problematic person. How was slaughtering his white allies winning freedom for him and his people? Or do you view it as impossible to do wrong in pursuit of revolution?

      I didn’t say any of those things, I am pointing out you are carrying water for european slavery empires by stripping the context.

      If you cannot get over the individual to understand the context, your understanding of people and history will continue to be egregiously broken and myopic.

      Okay so, since you didn’t quite understand it before:

      do you view it as impossible to do wrong in pursuit of revolution?

      That’s a strawman.
