And you know who I also don’t condemn?

The IRA

The Viet Minh

John Brown

Haitian slaves who revolted

Native American fighters

Black Panthers

National Liberation Front (Algeria)

Nelson Mandela

The 26th of July Movement

Every one of them were called “terrorists” or something equivalent at some point. Now think about who’s on the opposite of this list. Apartied South Africa, slavers, settlers, Zionists, the US government… There is only one moral and just side to be on and it’s not even a discussion.

They repeatedly offered to release him from jail in exchange for denouncing socialism. He did no such thing. He also reached a point where he refused to condemn violent rebellion because the non-violence wasn’t getting the goods. What liberals unknowingly worship him for, in their civility fetishism, is his acts of public reconciliation with the colonizers. Would have been good to get that post-apartheid wealth redistribution instead but what’s done is done.
