Guilt
I find it fascinating that girls can look at me and make me feel guilty for things that I have not done. It is a fascinating skill. They look at me from across a room with an unwavering stare with a clear intent on getting the attention of my eyes. I have put a strong effort into not looking in their direction. This can be difficult as one knows that they are seeking my eye contact. I am using strong will to deny eye contact. If I make the mistake of making eye contact, I know that I am in trouble. The nature of this eye contact accompanied by a very mild but powerful facial expression lets me know that something is being demanded of me. It is a fascinating power that a weak and gentle girl has over the physically larger and stronger male. Her gaze, which is more of a stare, contains an element of: “you are not giving me the attention that I desire.” It may be: “the attention that I demand”!
I was sitting across the aisle from an Englishman and his wife in a magnificent 747 bound for Europe. We conversed on many topics. One topic was particularly memorable. He was discussing an interact with his wife along the lines just mentioned. He said: “She gave me the ‘look’ !” I knew what he meant. The look had an element of ‘reprimand’ for behaviour expected but not received.

Guilt
If we are looking for a definition, this is close: “Guilt is a common feeling of emotional distress that signals us when our actions or inactions have caused or may cause harm to another person.” [1] This harm may be physical, emotional, or otherwise. I am not convinced that this definition covers ‘feeling guilty for things I have not done’. The definition is not comprehensive as it does not cover ‘naughty thoughts’. Guilt can arrive from inappropriate thoughts. It is healthy to feel guilty after doing something inappropriate. Some of those scientists in white coats claim we suffer about five hours a week with guilt feelings! Guilt is an emotion that warns us that we have carried out a bad action. It thus appears not to involve logic. I have to deduce that it comes from our reptile brain as a subconscious generated emotion. Our brain warns us that the bad choice can negatively affect our social relationships or well-being. This makes guilt an important emotion as it helps to prevent us destroying our social connections. Guilt tends to occur in ‘micro-bursts’ of brief signals.
If I browse my memory for my past, some of my errors and wrong-doings stand out. These past failures and wrongdoings can affect my enjoyment of my day. Some of them were not actually ‘wrong’ but were perceived as wrong by others. What is of concern is that I am more prone when browsing my past to analyze the few things that I got wrong rather than the things I got right. I have to say: “Stuff everything.” Sometimes, I shake my head a little. This clears my mind of this illogical bias towards past errors. I then set out to think about what I am going to do today.
I long ago realized that I was no use to anybody, nor my family, if I was not in a joyful mood. People know me as an unusually joyful, cheerful, friendly person. The joyous aura is mostly natural. It is not completely natural. I have to promote it in my brain. Once I kickstart the joyous internal attitude, it self sustains. My mother’s joyous approach to life probably generated my joyous approach to life. Such is the importance of a good mother in one’s early years. Girls need to be filled with joy not logic so they bring up joyful new adults.
I have to put some effort to create my joyous aura. I often use the advice of my Speedway coach, Jerry Bridson. It was advice on how to go fast on a track motorcycle and win races. Jerry raced for Poole Pirates many years ago. One of Jerry’s strict demands before push starting a five-hundred single running methanol down the start ramp was: “Don’t look back. You will hit the fence.” Speedway, in the 1980s, had a wooden sleeper wall around the track. Mostly, if you hit it you rode along it or slid along it. Hitting it at an angle was not a good idea. It took great effort to conquer fear to participate. But it was an amazing experience. If you can survive on a track like that, you can survive anywhere! Back to the advice: “Don’t look back. You will hit the fence.” I apply this to life. I don’t look back. I look forward to whatever excitement the hour, the day, the week, the year will provide. I look forward to whatever excitement the next person will give. Last night on a busy train from Prague to Poland, I sat opposite a girl that had just finished her masters degree. Towards the end, we discussed the obsession with success and the effect it has on us. It seems to create an obsession with perfection and an obsession with success. I suggested that she analyses the ‘definition of success’ in her life. I said that I asked my mother an interesting question when she was about eighty. “Mother, which do you remember most, your career or your family?” The answer was immediate: “Family!” I asked how often did she think of family. The answer was: “All day long.” On arrival at our train destination, our Polish graduate said: “I shall think about the definition of success.”
I’m in a cafe in Chisinau, Moldova. I am the only customer at ‘Dabbles’ and there is only one youthful waitress. It is her first day. She greeted me with nervous excitement and a big smile. I later complimented her on her smiling welcome. I gave advice on maintaining her smiling joyous service. I advised not to let anyone knock the smile out of her as it was her winning characteristic. Other staff and management are prone to bring the joyous person down to their level of misery. Be careful. Be strong. Overpower their negativity with your positivity. If you back off with your joyousness, they win. If they move to follow your joyousness, you win. It is a full-on competition at every encounter. To me, every encounter with third persons is a competition. I always show reverence to their skillset and job position. But I always make sure they buckle to my joyous attitude.
Let us get back to the topic of guilt.
Guilt Complex
A guilt complex is a persistent belief that you have done something wrong or that you may do something wrong. These constant feelings of guilt and worry can lead to feelings of shame and anxiety. Guilt is described as a self-conscious emotion that involves negative evaluations of the self, feelings of distress, and feelings of failure. [2]
My logic has determined that humans make five percent errors. This is one in twenty. If you take twenty actions, you will make one error. I thus estimate that I probably did wrong things at a similar ratio to other humans. However, with feelings, logic rarely wins. Illogic often wins. Even logic may not reason the bad feeling away.
I remember the monkeys around our hut in northern Thailand. A monkey would sit on the roof looking at us. If we walked away, it would scamper down and grab whatever it wanted off the table. It might be food or a camera. The monkey would then sit back on the roof looking at us with an expression that we could not interpret. To the monkey, theft was not something causing guilt. To the monkey, there was no shame in theft. The monkey could look into our eyes with a blank expression whilst holding a stolen camera. You might deduce that guilt is different in humans with different upbringings. You somehow have to find a way to modify your attitude to guilt.
The neocortex and the reptile brain do not communicate well and they certainly do not use logic to influence each other. You have to deal with this incompatibility between your two brains. The reptile brain operates all systems of your body and originates from the reptile. You are effectively a reptile with a modified body form with the addition of a neocortex which we believe is ‘us’ but misbehaves in mysterious ways. We try to order our thoughts but they wander all over the place. Our brain generates an awful lot of idiotic thoughts. It also generates a lot of what modern society trains us to believe are ‘inappropriate’ thoughts. The Vikings were never plagued by guilty thoughts whilst conducting rape and plunder. It was normal procedure to them. Do the Israelis feel guilt when they drop phosphorous bombs on Gaza?
Did the god of the old testament really intend the Hebrews of old to commit genocide? Deuteronomy 20:16-18 is the most instructive text on the topic:
Only in the cities of these peoples that the LORD your God is giving you as an inheritance, you shall not leave alive anything that breathes.
But you shall utterly destroy them, the Hittite and the Amorite, the Canaanite and the Perizzite, the Hivite and the Jebusite, as the LORD your God has commanded you,
in order that they may not teach you to do according to all their detestable things which they have done for their gods, so that you would sin against the LORD your God. (translation NASB 1977)
Jewish people accept the old testament. Jewish people do not accept the new testament. Christians read the old testament. Christians operate with a concept of ‘Common Decency’. This ‘Common Decency’ comes from a book of riddles called ‘The New Testament’. Christians are effectively taught to use the bibles as a guide book. Other religions treat their foundational documents as ‘rule books’. Phosphorus bombs in Gaza would appear to be condoned by Moses in his speeches. Deuteronomy is the record of the speeches of Moses. It is time to reject the words of the old testament and any who support them.
The Jewish sacred text is called the Tanakh or the “Hebrew Bible.” It includes the same books as the Old Testament in the Christian Bible, but they’re placed in a slightly different order. The Torah — the first five books of the Tanakh — outlines laws for Jews to follow. It’s sometimes also referred to as the Pentateuch. [1]
Of interest to you is that your feeling of guilt for some minor item earlier this week does not compare to dropping phosphorous bombs on the families of Gaza. Yet, those that drop the bombs appear to have less guilt than your guilt when failing to call your mother on her birthday. Your guilt needs to be moderated or annihilated faster than the Palestinians! Others are operating to: “Utterly destroy them… nor show mercy to them.” You are an angel in comparison.
I reason that guilt may be tied to the Christian philosophy that we are taught by our mothers and reinforced by our fathers. We assume that we must be good to others on all occasions. If we do not live up to these lofty ideals, we can be shamed and undermined by our religious adversaries. This is easy for them if they are not required to be good to others of other religions. People of other religions do not have the same compassion that is required of Christians towards others. We, thus, may feel guilty for things that others may never feel guilty about. Your guilt may derive from your upbringing where you were encouraged to feel guilty for things that are considered normal in other religions.
- (Sanhedrin 59a) To communicate anything to a Goy about our religious relations would be equal to the killing of all Jews, for if the Goyim knew what we teach about them, they would kill us openly.

Items of genocide exist in the Old Testament. As Christians, we should ditch the Old Testament. This is from a speech by Moses about one thousand-five-hundred years before Jesus:
‘When the Lord your God brings you into the land you are to possess and drives out the many nations larger and stronger than you, and when the Lord your God has delivered them over to you and you have defeated them, then you must destroy them totally. Make no treaty with them, and show them no mercy. Do not save alive anything that breathes…Do not intermarry with them…Do not give your daughters to their sons or take their daughters for your sons…Break down their altars, smash their sacred stones and burn their idols in the fire, for you are a people holy to the Lord your God who has chosen you out of all the peoples on the face of the earth to be his people, his treasured possession…’ – Book of Deuteronomy
The Koran is a text that encourages Islam to impose itself with force and permits the killing of Christians, said Lebanon’s Catholic Patriarch of Antioch Archbishop Raboula Beylouni, addressing a Vatican meeting of Middle East bishops. “The Koran gives Muslims the right to judge Christians and kill them with Jihad,” he said. “It gives orders to impose religion with force, with the sword. For this reason, Muslims don’t recognise the freedom of religion among themselves or others.”
Both Westerners and non-Westerners attempt to portray Muslim murderers of non-Muslims as ‘insane’. Media and the do-gooders try to cover for the fact that Islam promotes such behaviour. Three Koran passages cannot be denied:
- “Kill the polytheists wherever you find them (9:5); 2.
- “Fight the leaders of disbelief [kufr] (9:12);
- “When you meet the disbelievers, strike [with your blades at their] necks (47:4).
Someone whose information is derived from ‘mainstream media’ might think that attacks on Christians are uncommon. However, random attacks on ‘infidels’ are quite common. Many involve knife stabs to the neck. In Egypt, a Coptic clergyman complained that attacks on Christians happen “every two or three days”. The myth that warfare is only justified in Islam under the condition of self-defense is disproved by the story of the Battle of Badr. At this battle Muhammad sent his men out to raid caravans. He then provoked a battle with the Meccan army sent out to defend the caravans. Do not be fooled by the “tolerant” face of Muslims you meet in the Western world today. Islam has historically developed in four stages:
- Evangelism.
- Consolidation of power.
- Revolution.
- Islamic State.
Muslims would love to see Canada, Australia, Great Britain, and the USA become Islamic states but are only at the Evangelism stage. Islam has not changed its methods since Muhammad 1400 years ago. Muslims are tolerant, when they are powerless. The cover of toleration evaporates when an Islamic state is formed.
The blog ” Christians Under Attack has a comprehensive run down on Christian deaths at the hands of Muslims. A typical article:
Egypt: Muslim man sexually harasses, cuts throat of Christian woman on busy street.
Mary Gamil, the Christian woman, was walking in the neighborhood of al-Waraq, in Giza, when a man began to sexual harass her. When she rebuffed him, a verbal altercation ensued; then the man grabbed and forced her to the ground and began carving at her jugular with a knife. He made a deep gash in her throat and nearly killed her, but passersby intervened in time and held the man until authorities arrived. [4]
Jesus directs His followers to:
“Be wise as the serpent and harmless as the dove.” Matthew 10:16
We do not need to be tolerant of those that would do us harm. It is there in his own words!
The word ‘the’ was been omitted twice from the ‘King James Version’ of the New Testament’ and in most of the other versions. The words ‘serpent’ and ‘dove’ were translated as plurals. By doing so, we loose the meaning as written in the original Greek version.
The King James Version incorrectly reads:
“Be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.”
Jesus is telling us to be as wise as the scheming Satan (the serpent). Jesus is telling us tobe harmless like the dove. The dove perhaps represents the character of Jesus Christ. I call this the ‘Philosophy of Jesus’. I stand the ‘Philosophy of Jesus’ against the ‘Philosophy of the Church’.
Back to personal feelings of guilt.
I am staying in a hostel in Chisinau, Moldova. Conversations are strong in the kitchen around the eight seat table. At midnight, the receptionist and myself were the only ones left talking. It was a fascinating series of topics. One comment was: “You need good emotions written on your face to attract other people.” That will be in another chapter. The conversation moved to guilt. Our receptionist tells me that she feels guilty regularly for things that I explained were not eligible for guilt. She says she feels guilty if she does not help a friend when requested. She feels guilty even is it is not possible to help due to other commitments. She feels guilty even if the request is taking advantage of so called ‘friendship’ even when the other is taking advantage of perceived friendship. She says she feels guilty for not keeping the apartment clean. The guilt actually puts her off cleaning the apartment to the extent that apartment is less clean. Interestingly, she said three males had laughed when she said she felt guilty about some particular thing. I explained that there appeared to be a difference between male and female thinking about errors. I explained that we write off errors. “Oh dear! I stuffed up. Never mind. I’ll try again tomorrow.” Women appear to remember and analyze past errors. My study leads to reports that women have twice the depression issues of males and have twice the numbers on anti-depressants. It thus appears that guilty thoughts and even shame can be felt without cause. You need to find a way of reasoning your way out of this. This is not easy as reason is not a weapon against feelings. As in the human world, you cannot reason with the unreasonable, neither can you reason with your reptile brain that operates without reason. The reptile brain operates to keep a crocodile alive. That includes eating others. Just as non-vegans so not feel guilty when eating a steak, the crocodile does not feel guilty when biting your leg. The mosquito does not feel guilty when it sucks your blood after regurgitating part of its previous blood feast into your bloodstream.
A ‘Psychology Today’ article starts with this:
Women struggle mightily with the emotion of guilt. I’ve observed this truth for nearly 30 years as a psychotherapist, friend, mother, employer, neighbor, and in every other role I play with fellow women. When it comes to emotional well-being, guilt may be the greatest obstacle we face.
Men struggle with guilt, too — it’s a human emotion — but this post isn’t about men. It’s also not about guilt in a universal sense, as it relates to original sin. It’s about women and our habit of feeling guilty for pretty much everything.
What I see in my office day in and day out is this: women believe that everything that’s “wrong” has ever been “wrong” and will ever go “wrong” is their fault. If something or someone else isn’t okay, we’ve done something to cause it and are thereby responsible for fixing it. At the same time, women feel guilty for needing anything for themselves. The truth is women feel guilty most of the time, for most everything. Guilty is just our normal state. [2]
I don’t agree with the above, but any girl reading this should get an indication of the magnitude of the issue for girls and thus be able to better reason herself out of the complex illogic of inappropriate guilt. I don’t accept another article from a person that is dismissive of men’s problems. I don’t accept and article that portrays women as victims or that it is unfair that women have more problems as if it is that men have an advantage.
We do wish for people to live with a guilt complex. A guilt complex will influence your well-being. Persons may be prone to develop a sense of inadequacy. This leads to problems pursuing goals. The person may feel that they are in some way inadequate to achieve. They then may exhibit behaviours intended to punish themselves for their perceived errors.
I’ve met a few girls with cut marks on their legs.
One blog reply from a ‘cutter’ tells:
For one you can hide it. When I was cutting, it was because it seemed the best place to feel the most pain. But, cutters do it for a number of reasons.
Here is another cutter and their story:
From personal experience, … it’s mostly a mixed feeling of embarrassment and shame — embarrassed by the scars and shame in themselves. Sure, that initial cut can feel like a huge relief, but it becomes habit. You do it more and more. People ask questions. There’s only so many times you can dismiss it as something else being the cause. You feel ashamed and move to the legs, they’re not visible like on the arms. Most, if not all, self harmers start with the arms.
Find your demon that causes this. Luckily, I did, thirty-three-years ago. I found something that took my mind away from the urge that cutting makes everything better. Now, 30 years later, I can’t wear short sleeves in the summer. I can, but it’s embarrassing. My arm is a spaghetti junction of scars. When I do wear short sleeves, they are visible for all to see. I’m embarrassed by them now. When it’s summertime, if I do wear short sleeves, I get a nice tan, but my scar tissue just flies bright red. It really stands out. I’m truly ashamed of it. But like all self harmers, I had my reasons. I came out a stronger person for it.
Teen’s Health gives an explanation:
It is a way some people try to cope with the pain of strong emotions, intense pressure, or upsetting relationship problems. They may be dealing with feelings that seem too difficult to bear or bad situations they think can’t change.
Some people do it because they feel desperate for relief from bad feelings. People may not know better ways to get relief from emotional pain or pressure. For some, it’s an expression of strong feelings like rage, sorrow, rejection, desperation, longing, or emptiness.
There are other ways to cope with difficulties, even big problems and terrible emotional pain.
When a person does not express emotions in a healthy way, tension can build up — sometimes to a point where it appears unbearable.
Cutting is a form of self-injury that involves using sharp objects such as knives, razor blades, or scissors to make cuts, marks, or scratches on the body. Studies estimate that fifteen to twenty percent of teens harm themselves at one time or another.[3]
I just left the cafe with the intention of walking to the kebab shop I saw yesterday. I was rather hoping to find one of those old Soviet food halls with huge number of tables and a smorgasbord of goolash, meatballs, mash potatoes, and so on. A big old building with a heavy wrought iron fence and gate had words in Moldovan ‘Muzeul Național de Istorie a Moldovei’. I took a look. My mind was still analysing the concept of guilt. Did this man feel guilty after he chopped off your head?
Did my Neanderthal mate feel guilty as he dragged the maiden to his cave?
My line of thinking is that much of our guilt feelings are caused by our Christian upbringing. If one is expected to be a ‘good’ Christian, one should be tolerant. One should exhibit ‘common decency’. But this contains illogic. First of all Jesus was not tolerant. He constantly criticised, mocked, cursed, and promised damnation to those who did not follow his philosophy. Secondly, it is illogical to be tolerant of those that would do us harm or would kill us. Most would happily pull the trigger on someone trying to kill them. And similar should occur to those who would slowly kill us with vaccines drugs or promoted ‘brother’s wars’.
“Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You give a tenth of your spices–mint, dill and cummin. But you have neglected the more important matters of the law–justice, mercy and faithfulness. You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former.
And:
“Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You travel over land and sea to win a single convert, and when you have succeeded, you make them twice as much a child of hell as you are” (Matthew 23:15).
‘Child of hell’ can be expressed as ‘son of Gehenna’. To be a child of hell is to be deserving of hell, that is, to be awfully wicked.
‘Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! … And say, if we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets. Wherefore you are witnesses unto yourselves, that you are the children of them that killed the prophets. Fill up then the measure of your fathers. You serpents, you veneration of vipers, how can you escape the damnation of hell?”
“In this indictment Jesus lays the charge of persecuting and killing the prophets at the door of the Jewish people. It is by far the most severe, denunciatory and withering blast of language that fell from His lips during the entire thirty-three years that He was in the flesh.” The Jewish Assault on Christianity, Gerald Winrod, p 9.
This is one major reason that Jews are taught to hate Jesus. He exposed their evil, hateful, culture, their evil, hateful, deeds, and their evil, hateful, religion.
“The Jesus of this, the twenty-third chapter of Matthew, is not the quiet, reticent Jesus of modern literature and the fashionable pulpit. The Jesus, whose righteous indignation is here asserted, is a man of words and action, a man in the act of pronouncing eight woes upon the Jewish leaders and finally condemning them to the damnation of hell.
In one of the halls of this museum, the powers were doing their usual guilt tripping of Christians as below. There is so much evidence that this did not occur, yet the propaganda continues to blast out the guilt trip. There was only four and a half million ‘little hat’ people in the areas occupied by Germany, yet there is supposedly six-and-a-half-million H********st survivors. It is typical Marxist type behaviour to accuse the enemy (Christians) of doing what they were doing. The Bolshevicks (mostly ‘tiny hat’ people) were killing Christians in USSR in great numbers.
Thus, whole nations can be guilt tripped! One bloggers comment exudes:
The mainstream narrative about World War 1 and World War 2 is a complete Zionist propaganda and a load of s***. Our soldiers died for no reason.
I’ve just been a naughty boy. I might be seventy-two, but I can still be naughty! I’ve left the kebab shop and gone to a smart looking cafe. One where a waiter serves you. I ordered a decaf black coffee and a small lemon merangue pie. I sat down and a blond waitress came and gave me her practiced speech in Moldovan. Her face said a story of compliance. I waited until she had finished and gave a facial expression of not understanding maintaining strong face contact. I then said that I was from Australia. She said her only English which was that she could not speak English. She had an apologetic look as if she was a failure for not speaking the language of the visitor whilst the visitor had made on effort to learn her Moldovan. Interestingly, she passes glances my way with a wry smile knowing that I had played a game on her. Yet again, I am listening to Jingle Bells in English. Travel to Moldova and listen to English music!
Similar guilt tripping is done with slavery. Here is a passage I paste into Facebook whenever the topic is broached:
If there is a historical weapon more powerful and decisive than guns, it is certainly guilt. Those who seek to conquer will wield the primitive biblical notion of collective guilt as a bludgeon to dampen a rival group’s spirit and their willingness to resist. Guilt is injected like a fatal virus into entire populations to demoralize and weaken them. And at least as far as whites in the West are concerned, it is working like a charm.
Without so much as asking a single question, many modern whites have gullibly swallowed a skewed and incomplete historical narrative that depicts them as history’s sole villains and the non-white world as innocent, suffering lambs.
Alas, despite the cheering warmth such simplicities afford to simple minds, life is never that simple, and as any honest student of history knows, there is no such thing as “good guys”. There are only bad guys who won and bad guys who lost.
Whenever I note that when it comes to the emotionally hypersensitive topic of slavery, there is more than enough historical guilt to go around and that slavery’s history cannot neatly be boxed into binary struggles of good versus evil or black versus white, I am invariably accused of trying to alleviate or deny the guilt that we are ceaselessly lectured whites should constantly be torturing ourselves with.
If one dares to point out that Africans were vastly complicit in the African slave trade, one is accused of trying to “deny” white guilt or to “absolve” whites of guilt, or of trying to argue that “two wrongs make a right.”
No, dummies. Two wrongs make two wrongs. But the question is: Why do you focus only on one wrong? It would seem that in all cases, the ones who are truly trying to “deny” guilt or “absolve” themselves of it are the ones who insist everyone focus merely on one wrong rather than all of them. Humanity, regardless of color, will never suffer a shortage of guilt.
Many black apologists and their white enablers will outright deny that Africans sold Africans into slavery. The always interesting Nation of Islam argues that these treacherous go-betweens weren’t truly “African” anyway”, they were instead Portuguese Jewish half-breeds known as lancados who’d deliberately interbred with indigenous Africans in order to swindle and kidnap them before handing them over to Jewish slave traders who’d ship them to the Americas.
To many others for whom the overwhelming evidence of African collaboration in the slave trade becomes impossible to deny, they’ll leap through flaming poodle hoops trying to make excuses. They’ll allege that African slavery was more benign than all other forms…or that Africans who sold other Africans to Islamic and European slavers had no idea how brutally the victims would be treated…or that they didn’t consider one another “black” but rather enemies from warring tribes, as if that makes it any better ethically…or that it was only a handful of African Judases and Uncle Toms who sold their continental kin into New World bondage and was not in any way an established, officially mandated, and integral part of several sub-Saharan economies.
Nearly all modern historians agree that the scenario depicted by Alex Haley in Roots “that of white raiders penetrating the African interior to rout African villages for slaves” is fraudulent. Instead, European slave traders nearly always bought slaves from African vendors at coastal markets. We hear much about the brutal “Middle Passage” across the Atlantic Ocean, but almost never about the estimated ten million or so indigenous Africans who perished while being marched to the sea in chains and yokes by their African captors.
We don’t hear that according to Boston University’s Linda Heywood and John Thornton, about 90% of Africans transported to the New World had initially been enslaved by other Africans. We don’t hear about Tippu Tip, who was once a world-famous black slave trader in Zanzibar. And we certainly don’t hear much about how Barack Obama “who has no ancestral ties to African slaves in America” is descended from the Luo peoples, who routinely captured other Africans in war and sold them into slavery.
But when the Transatlantic Slave Trade was still active, what did African blacks and their American descendants have to say? Glad you asked:
“…I must own, to the shame of my own countrymen, that I was first kidnapped and betrayed by some of my own complexion, who were the first cause of my exile and slavery… If there were no buyers there would be no sellers.”
African abolitionist Ottobah Cugoano (1757-1791)
“The savage chiefs of the western coasts of Africa, who for ages have been accustomed to selling their captives into bondage and pocketing the ready cash for them, will not more readily accept our moral and economical ideas than the slave traders of Maryland and Virginia…. We are, therefore, less inclined to go to Africa to work against the slave trade than to stay here to work against it.”
Frederick Douglass
And here’s what several prominent modern African leaders have to say about the subject:
“African chiefs were the ones waging war on each other and capturing their own people and selling them. If anyone should apologize, it should be the African chiefs. We still have those traitors here even today.”
Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni, 1998
Written by Jim Goad.
“All known societies above the very primitive level have been slave societies — even many of the Northwest American Indian tribes had slaves long before Columbus’s voyage. Amid this universal slavery, only one civilization ever rejected human bondage: Christendom. And it did it twice!” Rodney Stark – “The Triumph of Christianity: How the Jesus Movement Became the World’s Largest Religion”
“Everyone, and I do mean everyone, who is alive in the world today has at least 100 ancestors who were slaves. ” – Warlock Asylum
“Slavery was known in almost every ancient civilization, and society, including Sumer, Ancient Egypt, Ancient China, the Akkadian Empire, Assyria, Ancient India, Ancient Greece, the Roman Empire, the Islamic Caliphate, the Hebrews in Palestine, and the pre-Columbian civilizations of the Americas.
Records of slavery in Ancient Greece go as far back as Mycenaean Greece. It is certain that Classical Athens had the largest slave population, with as many as 80,000 in the sixth and fifth centuries BC; two to four-fifths of the population were slaves. According to some scholars, slaves represented 35% or more of Italy‘s population.
As the Roman Republic expanded outward, entire populations were enslaved, thus creating an ample supply from all over Europe and the Mediterranean. Greeks, Illyrians, Berbers, Germans, Britons, Thracians, Gauls, Jews, Arabs, and many more were slaves used not only for labour, but also for amusement (e.g. gladiators and sex slaves). This oppression by an elite minority eventually led to slave revolts (see Roman Servile Wars); the Third Servile War led by Spartacus being the most famous and severe. By the late Republican era, slavery had become a vital economic pillar in the wealth of Rome, as well as a very significant part of Roman society.
According to Robert Davis between 1 million and 1.25 million Europeans were captured by Barbary pirates and sold as slaves in North Africa and Ottoman Empire between the sixteenth and nineteenth centuries.
David P. Forsythe wrote: “In 1649 up to three-quarters of Muscovy’s peasants, or thirteen to fourteen million people, were serfs whose material lives were barely distinguishable from slaves. Perhaps another 1.5 million were formally enslaved, with Russian slaves serving Russian masters. ”
In the 9th and 10th centuries, the black Zanj slaves may have constituted at least a half of the total population in lower Iraq. At the same time, many tens of thousands of slaves in the region were also imported from Central Asia and the Caucasus. Many slaves were taken in the wars with the Christian nations of medieval Europe. In the Thousand and One Nights there are mentions of white slaves.
According to Sir Henry Bartle Frere (who sat on the Viceroy’s Council), there were an estimated 8 or 9 million slaves in India in 1841. About 15% of the population of Malabar were slaves. Slavery was abolished in British India by the Indian Slavery Act V. of 1843.
In East Asia, the Imperial government formally abolished slavery in China in 1906, and the law became effective in 1910. Slave rebellion in China at the end of the 17th and the beginning of the 18th century was so extensive that owners eventually converted the institution into a female-dominated one. The Nangzan in Tibetan history were, according to Chinese sources, hereditary household slaves.
Indigenous slaves existed in Korea. Slavery was officially abolished with the Gabo Reform of 1894 but continued in reality until 1930. During the Joseon Dynasty (1392–1910) about 30% to 50% of the Korean population were slaves.
In late 16th century Japan slavery as such was officially banned, but forms of contract and indentured labor persisted alongside the period penal codes’ forced labor.
In Southeast Asia, a quarter to a third of seventeenth- to twentieth-century populations in some areas of Thailand and Burma were slaves. The hill tribe people in Indochina were “hunted incessantly and carried off as slaves by the Siamese (Thai), the Anamites (Vietnamese), and the Cambodians.”
A Siamese military campaign in Laos in 1876 was described by a British observer as having been “transformed into slave-hunting raids on a large scale”. The census, taken in 1879, showed that 6% of the population in the Malay sultanate of Perak were slaves. Enslaved people made up about two-thirds of the population in part of North Borneo in the 1880s.”

“Between the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 and 2007, an estimated total of 0.8 to 0.9 million Africans immigrated to the United States” Why would they do that if USA had ‘systemic racism’?
Israel Cohen, England’s leading Communist Zionist writer in the early 20th century, wrote the following in his book, ‘A Racial Program For the 20th Century’ published in 1912:
“In America, we will aim for a subtle victory. While enflaming the Negro minority against the Whites, we will endeavor to instill in the Whites a guilt complex for their exploitation of the Negroes. We will aid the Negroes to rise to prominence in every walk of life; In the professions and in the world of sports and entertainment. With this prestige the Negroes will be able to intermarry with the Whites and thereby begin the process that will deliver America to our cause.” (Reprinted in the U.S. Congressional Record for 1957, Page 8559)
Andrea Ostrov rants on these subjects:
“BLM is less about black power than about Jewish supremacist power exploiting ‘white guilt’ about blacks to keep whites browbeaten. Jewish Power is saying to whites, “We Jews are holy, whereas you whites are vile and guilty. So, to redeem your ugly white souls that oppressed all those innocent blacks, you whites need to serve us Holy Holocaust Jews in securing Imperialist Hegemony over the world.” Andrea Ostrov
Here is a facinating Andrea Ostrov rant (edited for clarity) on the subject of guilt:
Universalization of White Guilt
(Adapted from Ostrov)
Black thugs and white Antifa retards loot and arson. They shout “Only black lives matter”. Prior to BLM-mania, homosexuals and transvestites had the microphone. Before them, feminists had the microphone. Women were above criticism and men were to be despised. The supposed call for ‘Racial Justice’ has morphed into a rage pushing black identity before the plight of Amer-Indians, Palestinians, sex-slaves in Israel, ‘collateral death’ victims, Muslims under missile attack, and others. BLM is promoting tribalism over cooperation. Diversity became division. Black deaths at the hands of Israeli-trained police is miniscule compared to black deaths by blacks.
It is better to consider ‘groups’ rather than races and religions. Tribalism exists where individuals are loyal to their group above others.
One might expect a counter tribalism where others rise against the other. But counter tribalism may not occur? The tribalism of BLM may become a ‘triversalism’, where one particular tribe becomes adulated by other tribes? The US was ‘triversal’ from its start. Anglo manners, clothes, procedures, and habits were adopted by other tribes world-wide. Anglos were looked up to as dominant and admirable. England did not ‘force’ soccer on the world. The world became Anglo-ized by consent, not the sword. Non-Anglo persons emulated Anglos. This was even true for German Kazarian Jews moving to the USA. The Kazarian ‘Jews’ Anglicized their names and manners, took Victorian haircuts, wore cut-suits, and spoke English better than the English. Anglo culture and values became the standard for groups. British Empire morphed into Americanism. Islam did similar for Arab culture. To become Muslim meant adopting the customs of the Arab peoples. The Spanish demanded the primacy of their culture and language in the ‘New World’. The natives submitted to the stronger tribal-centrism.
The rise of Kazarian Power has been another ‘triversalism’. Kazarian ethnocentrism, tribal identity, and supremacism should have led to rival tribalism. However, other groups hail Israel, praise Kazars, and pledge allegiance to Zion. The propaganda went out through Hollywood, sitcoms, TV ads, and ‘news’. Instead of boosting their own identity to compete, the nations pledged obedience to a money system under corporate control. The full spectrum from lefty liberal homos to the conservative evangelicals developed a total commitment to supporting the usury of the Kazarian money-system, praising the Kazars, giving heaps of money to Israel, and remembering only the Jewish WW2 deaths. The Holocaust is displayed as a uniquely Jewish tragedy which has been ‘universalized’ demanding all other peoples acknowledge Jews as tragic people, deserving of sympathy.
Homosexuals and transvestites are a tiny minority in all nations. Yet, homosexuality has become a unifying ‘theme’ among many people world wide. Homos praise themselves. Straights praise homos. Everybody supports the ‘Gay Parades’.
Consider the case with blacks. The rise of BLM should lead to similar identity movements: Brown Lives Matter, Yellow Lives Matter, Red Lives Matter, White Lives Matter. But blacks have gained ‘triversal’ value. They are seen as special, tragic, awesome, such that non-black groups see blacks as people deserving of love and sympathy. BLM riots contained whites. Blacks dominate pop music and sports which makes them the idols of youths worldwide. Chinese boys worship NBA stars. Iranian youths ape American rappers. Pornified white women get jungle fever for ‘black dongs’. Jewish Media promoted black tragedy as the greatest tragedy after the holocaust. Ignore that the number of lynched blacks is minuscule compared to other tragedies. Hollywood and Media fill our brains with ‘Muh Holocaust’ and ‘Muh Slavery’. The cult of White Guilt has been spread by ‘Guilt Imperialism’. There is a non-stop narrative about black suffering, but no discussion about the lifting of blacks up from a savage environment where there was no written language nor the wheel. There is still a strong migration from Africa to USA suggesting superior conditions in America. Slavery only became an evil due to ‘Western Values’. Africa has not ended black slavery. Islam has not rejected the concept of slavery. Sex-slavery of whites is still rampant.
Counter-Tribalism’ has not occured. A particular tribe has become the unifying idol for other tribes. Jews, Negroes, and Homos have attained ‘triversal’ status. People become subservient to these ‘holy’ three. The promotion of BLM is a propagandization of the ‘Imperialism of Guilt’.
White people had a technological advancement that created an ‘Imperialism of Pride’. Non-whites revered white-led progress. ‘Western Enlightenment Universalism’ did not abandon other cultures, but the ‘lesser cultures’ became suppressed in reverence to the perceived advanced one. Christianity and Modernity became synonymous with white greatness and ‘Western Civilization’.
Western Powers have come under Jewish Rule. ‘Imperialism of Pride’ was manipulated to an ‘Imperialism of Guilt’. “We whites are ashamed, and all of humanity must share ‘white guilt’ – even if you never owned a slave or ran a death camp”
The propaganda went from:
‘The World should follow Whites because Whites have much to be proud of’
to
‘The World should despise Whites because Whites have so much to be ashamed of’.
The ‘Guilt of Whites’ has been pushed on the entire world. Palestinians have been victims. The ‘Imperialism of Guilt’ argued “Because whites feel guilty about what Jews claim was done to Jews in WW2, all the world must share in the guilt and pay the price.” When Palestinians resisted Zionist Imperialism, they were branded as ‘Anti-Semites’. Yet, they took no part in WW2. The entire world was guilty for not having stopped the holocaust.
The Imperialism of Guilt led to Wars for Israel that destroyed countless lives in the Middle East and North Africa. ‘White guilt’ became ‘white indebtedness to Jews’ and all of humanity must share the burden. Germans must pay reparations to Jews. Palestinians must lose their homeland to Jews. The world owes Jews. Not supporting Zionism and Israeli interests would cause the rise of new hitlers and holocausts.
The ‘Imperialism of Guilt’ is spreading ‘Negro-idolatry’. Most nations had nothing to do with the Atlantic Slave Trade. But the White Guilt Narrative about blacks is being pedaled whilst ignoring the past trade in white slaves and the current white sex-slave trade to Israel. Browns, yellows, and Hindus must demonstrate sympathy for blacks. If not, they are ‘racist’. Guilt applied to whites now applies to the whole world. A failure of Japan to accept blacks, will be deemed ‘racist’. In Europe, the result of the ‘Imperialism of Guilt’ is dire.
The US is Jewish-ruled, and BLM is a Jewish power ploy to boost the cult of White-Guilt to keep whites subservient to Jewish Supremists. BLM doesn’t mention Jewish exploitation of blacks, the Jewish role in the slave trade, IDF training of US police, and the past rejection of black interests. BLM propagandizes white police ‘brutality’ and ‘white legacy of slavery’ with disregard for statistics. BLM is a reinforcement of Jewish supremism. Jewish Power is saying: “You whites are vile. To redeem your ugly white souls that oppressed blacks, you need to assist us ‘Holocaust Survivors’ to secure world hegemony.”
The Imperialism of White-Guilt about Blacks may be more damaging than the Imperialism of White-Guilt about Jews. The latter led to the destruction of North Africa and the Middle East. The Guilt about Blacks will lead to the junglization of nations worldwide. Their media will ignore stories of black thuggery while amplifying stories of harmed Negros.
99Percent reports that more than 4,000 young, beautiful Slavic girls are lured to Israel every year under the false pretense of getting an improved standard of living if they’re willing to travel to an exotic location, only to find that their new employer is a businessman in the slave trade industry.
Sex slavery of white European women in Israel, which has received little or no coverage in the mainstream media, is a growing trade in Israel. The women are locked in apartments with barred windows and are beaten, tortured and gang-raped to break them in. They are forced to service up to 15 Jews a day, in Israel’s 400-plus brothels, 280 of them in Tel Aviv alone. Here’s more from 99Percent. [5]
