Geldof in Africa

"I have not become the King's First Minister in order to preside over the liquidation of the British Empire. ...

I am proud to be a member of that vast commonwealth and society of nations and communities gathered in and around the ancient British monarchy, without which the good cause might well have perished from the face of the earth. 

Here we are, and here we stand, a veritable rock of salvation in this drifting world...." -Winston Churchill, 1942

Geldof's Left-Liberal, Humanitarian Bomber Manifesto on the under-development of Africa.

Just like the Far-Right, he is at pains to emphasize that "Slavery had always existed in Africa" - a Straw Man Argument dating back at least as far as the Amistad Trial.

White Imperialism has always sought to blur the distinction (for it's own purposes) between Indentured Servitude and Chattel Slavery - when slavery was outlawed everywhere in the British Empire, it made little to no difference; the Negro Slave labour was replaced by Chinese Coolies and Indian Seepoys.

When people have no concept of fiat currency or money, it becomes far easier to enslave them - but there *is* a difference.... And that is concepts of property... Which makes the slave TRADE a commerical possibility, and indeed an ecconomic inevitability.

You cannot sell a life-debt or a debt of honour; if you conquer another tribe or people in war, they become subject to you for a period of years or generations, less commonly.

People are not BORN as the possessions of other people, as livestock, and there is no pretence that you can own a man's soul...

Like any Devil, Geldof does say some true things :

* Bonded Slavery or Indentured Servitude became to some extent an ecconomic and social necessity because of the massive UNDERPOPULATION of the African Continent. There were not enough people to work the land or tend the herds of cattle after a war, so make the vanquished warriors milk your goats for you until the demographic recovery occurs.

* He makes the started White Liberal Complaint about Non-White cultures - there is no timetable, and nothing runs on time - well, of course there wouldn't be; if Time is Money, then Money must be Time, and if you have no concept of Money, how can there be any concept of Time? Time is an Illusion created by the movement of Money. Consequently, this is why the natives sleep so much.
