Shut up, take your racism somewhere else.

Gee: You sound like the CRT defenders. Livingstone’s diaries are brutally truthful and, therefore, controversial. To conflate your biased opinion with that of the one man seeking to end slavery on the African continent is, frankly, quite emotional of you.

“Whilst Livingstone now enjoyed plurality and praise, the view of Africa was narrowing and becoming more negative: a place of death; the worst place for a white man to die; and it was a ‘country’ full of slaves. Africans were a race to be pitied: ‘the forlorn condition of the African races’ was an image that would increasingly dominate as the call to take up the anti-slavery cause increased as the funeral came closer. Whilst African skills, hard work and commercial aspirations were underscored in some reports, these would fade into the background, as Livingstone’s earlier verdict - they are ‘civilized, anxious to trade and skilful in the art of cultivation’, and ‘rather believe we are the savages’ - receded.”

If pointing out the obvious failures of liberal/democrat/progressive urban policies (ironically, those ‘failures’ could be labeled intentional) is ‘triggering’...

...then you certainly are incapable of handling what I call my own race when it comes to such anti-social/counter-culture (illegal) behavior.
