Eugenics works, just ask the Nordic states.

[Joel Berry @JoelWBerry]

That's because you don't know your history.

Roosevelt was an avid eugenicist. Roosevelt was closely allied with Madison Grant and William Temple Hornaday, who founded the Bronx Zoo and put a black kid named Ota Benga in a zoo cage and displayed him as a subhuman species. The child later committed suicide.

Roosevelt wrote a glowing endorsement of Madison Grant's book The Passing of the Great Race, which Hitler kept under his bed and referred to as his "Bible."

Roosevelt's endorsement: "The book is a capital book; in purpose, in vision, in grasp of the facts our people most need to realize. It shows an extraordinary range of reading and a wide scholarship. It shows a habit of singular serious thought on the subject of most commanding importance. It shows a fine fearlessness in assailing the popular and mischievous sentimentalities and attractive and corroding falsehoods which few men dare assail. It is the work of an American scholar and gentleman; and all Americans should be sincerely grateful to you for writing it."

Opposition to scientific racism and eugenics was mainly raised by Christians at the time, and was dismissed by Grant as "sentimentality."

Roosevelt strongly opposed "unfit" races being freely available to reproduce, in keeping with Darwin's prescription in his book The Descent of Man, and he advocated for forced sterilization of those deemed unfit to reproduce.

He was a product of his time, and eugenics was mainstream thought back then. We shouldn't judge too harshly.

But Hitler got his ideas from the U.S. eugenics movement. Calling Roosevelt "Proto Hitler" is not altogether unfair.

@WaywardRabbler @ggreenwald The US killed more people than Mao or Suharto in 1967?

[Dollar Lama @CorazonDiablo]

Using that MLK quote to strengthen your point makes you and MLK equally stupid or ignorant.

[Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald]

This jingoistic taboo on discussing the unparalleled violence and bloodshed the US brings to the world is infantile.

Hasan Piker said nothing even contestable. The US has killed more people using classic terrorist tactics than Al Qaeda by far. Here's what MLK said in 1967:

Somehow I'm wary of coneheads. Clavicular, on the other hand, has what we colloquially term a "moer my gesig".

@roisinmurphy I genuinely can't think of any other band that was so consistently brilliant for the guts of 20 years.
I prefer a lot of their IRS stuff but even their weaker, later albums stand above most others.
And they were incredible live.

Top marks for including the EFF "activist" who preaches child safety while wearing a Winnie Mandela shirt. Guess Stompie Seipei is excluded...

The state runs the electricity provider, rail networks, police and military, to name a few. All are failures, is that white people's fault?

[Prof Thuli Madonsela #KindnessBuilds @ThuliMadonsela3]

This is not true. Crime affects all and disproportionately affect black South Africans particularly African, due to their positioning at the bottom of South Africa’s pyramid structures economy and social system. Right now 8 African women have been murdered by what appears to be a serial killer. Black deprivation is not an accident of history or misfortune but a direct outcome of state orchestrated social engineering through successive colonial and apartheid laws such as land and other property dispossession, job reservation, commercial and property rights denial and legalised under-service that enabled the state to uplift the white minority at the expense of the black majority who were denied the opportunity to thrive. Mathematically, you should know that a deficit cannot fix itself without reparatory action #justice #peace #reparatoryaction ⚖️🕊️🇿🇦🦋
