We don’t pay no stinkin’ reparations. By Daniel Hannan.
I’ve had enough of these grifters. If another government comes whining for slavery reparations from the country [Britain] that distinguished itself by its relentless global abolitionism, we should treat it as a hostile act and respond with economic sanctions.
This is where the Arabs were ahead of us
By castrating all their slaves, they made sure that there were no descendants who could claim reparations
The lesson of the long twentieth century is that mercy gets you nowhere. You will pay for it forever. No one gives the Arabs a hard time about the slave trade, because the Arabs made sure there were no descendants of slaves. No one gives the Argentines a hard time about stolen land, because the indigenous peoples of Argentina were systematically eliminated. No one gives the Japanese a hard time about the Ainu, because there are no Ainu.
