Good morning Vee,
Your thoughts on enslaving people is exactly how the British thought of it back in the early 1800s, which is why they told the world to stop it.
They used their Royal Navy to stop slave ships from 1807 into the 1900s.
The portrayal here that it is an american idea is wrong, though they agreed to help the UK to stop slavery on Christmas eve 1814 in Ghent when no one else would!
They traded for guns to fight other tribes in Africa,
That's right, guns, bullets and gunpowder, some African pre-colonial states even had cannons
The history is describing the dark realities in the past. Humans were a lot more cruel, unhygienic, with very primitive views about the world back than. Average life-span was 35 years, a 45 was considered old. As we evolved we start traveling more, reading more & learn to accept & be open up to others - their food first, than their outfit, buildings, tech advances... The more closed up is a society (any dictatorship, religious sects, etc. - the more unexciting about other cultures, food, looks, etc.) I grew up in a communist/socialist society & I was wondering why we were so non-accepting of other cultures, food, looks, etc. When I lived long enough in a more open society in the West, I also learned much more and became much more open & accepting of others.
It's a misconception that prime age people were falling over dead in droves.... the average age figures in a horrific degree of infant, child death, soilders killed, and women dieing in child birth that were pulling down averages... many Roman leginaries lived to retire from the military in their 40s... granted as you got old your risk of dieing to disease and infection was alot higher... depending on your life you may develop conditions that could cut your life short. A poorly fed slave miner would be lucky to see 40, but old men and women weren't unheard of... people would survive until something life threatening came up, nowadays alot of people are saved in their 50 and 60s from things like a bad hit of pneumonia that would have been the end for our ancestors...
Hey, just subscribed. Would you please react to a video called " Why guns must be banned now" by Awaken with JP.
I know it's a hard thing to perceive, but you have to strongly consider the context of the society and culture at the time before we judge these historic figures as though their actions were in the context of today. We obviously realize today that slavery is inhumane and unacceptable. However, that is after years of moral evolution. This is a hypothetical but as we move farther into the future of humanity we tend to only attribute more rights in our societies and not less, so assuming that... let's say (hypothetically) that in roughly 50-60 years that morality has evolved to give babies in the womb human rights and essentially the entire human population then sees abortion as inhumane and murder of an unborn innocent child... would it be fair to judge those that have had abortions as murderers, and potentially you or anyone living today that either supported it being legal or werent fighting against it as morally reprehensible? I think the context matters on how we view and judge the people from different time periods. We can judge their character and actions in their correct context whilst simultaneously acknowledging that the same behaviors and actions today would be judged drastically different and wholy condemned.
