Your nonchalant attitude about death threats stifling academic discourse is dangerous. "colonialism is good" should not be academic discourse "should not" is not an argument or a substitute for evidence and reason. if someone claims to present evidence that colonialism was not all bad, then the correct response is to dispute their evidence and their reasoning. not to attempt to murder them or issue murder threats. very basic concept for anyone living in a civilized part of the world. <cite>LolTownz posted [p:888179583] in Snowflakes...
