Give it back to you? How about you pay repairations to Haiti or Algeria or any of your other former colonies before you act like you're worthy of the Mother of Exiles?
Yeah, give it to Russia or China who have never used military expansion for their own self serving purposes.
This should be the new “OK boomer”
Oh fuck off.
Did France not forever debilitate Haiti's economy by enslaving it and then requiring Haiti to compensate France for the monetary loss of its liberation before being willing to recognize it as a legitimate country?
I'd remiss to not note that a downvote is not a "No".
You may be more than giddy to forget but we're, very much, deprived of that luxury…
Your post is exactly the type of cancer that you are referring to, whether or not you have the ability to understand it.
just so you realize, my comment was satirical and the fact that you read it literally, reported it, and a mod removed it is exactly what I was critiquing.
Nice one, dig that hole deeper! You can do it!
FYI I've never reported any post, and yours is by no means significant enough for that record to change.
Then it obviously wasn't that great of a critique if it was that badly misinterpreted.
