Indentured White Servants Were Treated Worse than Black Slaves in the West Indies

[John Smith Esq.]

Unless his work has been properly reviewed by others, then we have no way of knowing whether he is right. Anyone can throw a few bits and bobs together and sound authoritative on YouTube.

You mean like reading his books, doing some thinking, and scrutinising it for ourselves? I suppose that is an alien notion to you...

"Please, sirs, tell me what to think!"

The office for national statistics disagrees with you.

I think they provide the data for others to interpret

Interesting fact about Hull, it was Wiilliam Wilberforce that had slavery abolished. I have visited his house many times and seen the slavery trade artifacts which are really interesting. I think this is how the lefty's will end up, slaves to the right wing.

 

[John Smith Esq.]

Britain banned slavery across the world and devoted men and ships to fighting it. To the annoyance of many countries. This country also took on massive debts to compensate the slave owners affected - in other words, the British public paid massive sums of money to free slaves. We were still paying off that debt until recently.

Have we ever been thanked for this? Nope. In fact, certain lazy grifters want more money from us, but curiously, not Arab or other countries who would laugh in their faces.

Junk history is like junk science. Anybody can claim anything and gullible readers will often just accept what they read. That is why both need reviewing by other experts to be taken seriously.

what makes you a proper historian?

A proper historian is left-wing of course!

'Peer reviewing' and 'Fact checking' are left-wing concepts that have appeared only recently. They simply mean left-wing endorsed.

For a great, modern historian you cannot beat David Starkey. He is so good that the BBC and Cambridge University both dumped him.

Well said.

BBC fact checking: man with beard and 12" length in a dress is a woman because he says that he is one. Correct! He is a woman.

They dumped Starkey for being honest.

He's still razor sharp now in his 80s and has a good YouTube channel. No need to suffer the shoyte on TV anymore, all the best stuff is on YouTube.

Shhhhhhhhh. Some whiteys on here don’t want to hear that. Black man good, white man bad.

Your a bad white man.​

Ive seen footage of you chasing good honest hard working foreign criminals with a pole.

I had to refresh my memory.

Was it because he used the phrase 'so many damn blacks in Africa or in Britain'. Or for something else he said.

Yes that was it. When explaining why it was ridiculous to say there was a genocide against blacks during the trans atlantic slave trade. Poor choice of words, but no need for his glittering career to be destroyed because of it. Unless you're a mentally deranged, left wing fanatic and then the need to cancel people and ruin them for mis-speaking is paramount.

I actually thought he was just being a bit too clever for his own good. But I never thought he really meant it how it came across.

Maybe.

What I find interesting is that when somebody draws attention to the extreme suffering and deaths of poor white people during a period of history - a fact which is undisputed - you set about trying to dismiss it and the person drawing attention to it. Your motivations here seem pretty inhumane, to say the least. Not to mention racist. It is all the more curious because in those days, loonies like you would've been given short shrift. You wouldn't have enjoyed the cushy, benefits lifestyle you do now. Perhaps this is what leads you to resent white people and their society... that you are dependent on them? And perhaps why you identify with and promote what you feel to be weaker people...? Perhaps you can ponder this in your spare time, preferably in private.

Are we talking about the Simon Webb video. He was trying to minimise the suffering of black slaves. And I know from previous videos that he is not a proper historian. Critiquing him does not make me inhumane.

The rest of you post is a bit confusing. What have I written which makes you think I resent other white people and am 'dependent' on them.

Always went out of way to see Question Time if Starkey was appearing. He didn't take any prisoners.
