RE: About Dr. B. R. Ambedkar and Human Rights he won for the people...

hmm, interesting. What are your thoughts on Karl Marx's comment that British Colonialism in India serves a righteous cause: "England has to fulfill a double mission in India: one destructive, the other regenerating - the annihilation of the Asiatic society, and the laying of the material foundations of Western society in Asia."

Sort:  

The British never served a regenerating purpose. They never did a thing to decrease our internal divides. Instead they used them for their own benefits. You see, it really doesn't matter if one king is lost or other, and what religion or caste someone belonged to when it comes to British rule. Indians died, always. They died fighting each other, or fighting for or against the British in world wars. The British only benefited from the death toll of Indians. They were smart. I can give them that, and I actually mean cunning... About the material foundations of Western society - I don't think this is what they learned from Jesus. It's just not possible. I've read the bible too... Jesus didn't even let Peter protect him with a sword. So let's keep christianity far away from this... Annihilation of asian society - My comment on this phrase really would be aggressive, if you can feel me... I'd better not say anything on that.

Apologies for an angry remark. But I'd simply say Karl Marx was wrong to say that.
