Why are people like him (or Ben Bella in Algeria and Agostinho Neto in Angola) never considered racist even though he oversaw the deportation of hundreds of thousands of foreigners in the name of a nationalist ideology fueled by xenophobia of countryside against more cosmopolitan cities, while merely trying to prevent immigration in the West is considered Hitlerism?

It seems like the dominant mentality accepts the right of Arabs and Africans to expel anyone they want, but everyone else must accept Arabs and Africans in their countries or else be called racist.

Since when is Nasser not considered a racist? Few people who even know who he is would call him not-racist. I think you're just making up a strawman.

Racism of low expectations tbqh

Who did he expel? Jews?

whitey

Only white people are expected to be "civilized" the rest of the world are primitive brown savages who can't be helped.

Everyone who was not Egyptian, including Jews.

Literally who?

The thing people don't realize about colonialism, racism, anti-immigration, etc. Is that the Chinese and especially near easterners were literally the first civilizations. Up until the Greeks and Romans there wasn't much of significance going on compared to places like the Nile basin, Mesopotamia, and the Levant/Anatolia.

Great civilizations would eventually come to Europe as the knowledge and wealth of earlier civilizations spread across the Mediterranean. We all know the story from there, the Greeks and Romans eventually create some of the greatest empires to date, conquering the older civilizations in their expansion.

What does this mean to the french, the Germans, the British, the Nords, etc?
These people were conquered and assimilated by the Mediterranean powers and carried their customs as the Roman empire fell. This gives rise to a period in which the Chinese, Muslim Arabs/Persians, and steppe nomads had a higher standard of wealth, technology, and health pretty much up until the black death.

The silk road nations from Turkey to China then entered a period of stagnation in innovation and social ideals as they grew complacent with their system of trade and strong traditional customs that they've held since civilization began.

Now, Europe is not a weak continent at this point, but it is in disarray. Trade to the east is dominated by the ottomans, populations are groing too fast for the land, coal, timber, and good farmland to sustain itself. This begins a period of serious competition between Euro powers for better weapons, shipping, trade deals, and education. It's this period that compels Europe to discover the new world and start seriously improving weapons and technologies from the east.

This is what gave us the edge to colonize nations and civilizations that have enjoyed thousands of years of superiority over northern europe in every measure of civilization.

Continued.

this is such a normie post

seriously kill yourself

the french colonizers and their sympathizers were deported

if you were a harki you'd get killed

People give Idi Amin shit for doing it, but that's only because the consensus is that he was a "le crazy dictator" so western liberals don't want to try and defend him.

Cont.

So in reality, northern European domination of world trade and military might is a relatively new phenomenon in the grand scheme of world civilization. The wealth brought back from the new world, the reintroduction of studying classical sciences and philosophies, and improving on eastern inventions like the printing press, gun powder, paper production etc, has allowed us to gain dominion over those who used to be the peak of enlightenment and civility while we lived in mud huts.

It's not Europe's fault that we landed on berber/Arab lands and started conquering them with more accurate and rapidly firing versions of weapons that they introduced to us so many centuries ago. Bolt action, rifled-barreled fire arms, acurate artillery with explosive shells, machine guns, and steam powered ships go up against Berber tribesmen with muzzle loading muskets or just lances and swords and old, solid-casted canons with nothing more harmful than grape shot.

We travelled the world because we were isolated from the wealth and complacency of the silk road trading nations, and in turn we grew more wealthy and advanced than the east would have dreamed in a very short time as a result.

Now that all of our old colonies have independence, they blame us of racism and neo-colonialism because they still haven't adopted our principles of high ideals, rigorous advancement through scientific observation, and free trade and enterprise. Therefore, we have no choice but to dominate them still. They come to European majority nations in droves to escape their native lands, whether due to better education and opportunities or just to suck the fat tit of our welfare systems.

It's just the nature of the world playing out. Until other regions gain our wealth and political expediency, we are currently the complacent population in a place of domination

Fuck off and read the rest of it, simpleton.
If you have some kind of we wuz argument to prove Sumerian, Egyptians, and east Asians were Northern Europeans, I'm all ears.

In Naser's particular case, it was because 1. it immediately followed international kerfuffles with France, Britain and Israel 2. the numbers of people expelled were relatively tiny and extremely targeted. Maybe half of the total Jewish population and less than a tenth of the British population were forced to leave.

I've never seen anyone call his actions non-racist.

He also did it to Indians, not white people.

Though when the blacks killed Arabs and Indians in Zanzibar, no one cared. It's the only genocide that was filmed as it happened and no one knows about it, black nationalism is still considered a legitimate ideology.

Africa Addio (or Africa: Blood and Guts!") is one of my all time favorite films. Even with its implicit bias at many times, it still shows a good picture of how Africa has become what it is today

But Nasser was considered racist and those two got CRITICIZED hard. You are just making a shitty strawman just to make a point to feed to complex that you have.

That happens everywhere to be honest.
Work with the enemy, get punished if they do get overthrown.

>it still shows a good picture of how Africa has become what it is today

Not really.

>all the lefties in here pretending anyone has evet accused Nasser of being racist

lulz

I disagree. I think if you do some supplementary reading to give context, you can watch the movie with a more objective point of view and gain real insight into how the turmoil of the post colonial period has led to where we are today. Especially when thinking of Africa as a chessboard for the cold war to play out on, as well as the internal sectarian strife. Also the movie gives a sharp foreboding of today's huge problems with poaching and corruption in the national parks and wildlife preserves.

To be fair the Black vs Arab claim is extremely incorrect and shows how stupid non-afrixans are in the subject much like yourself desu

Sorry mufasa, that is not an argument

brown people can't be racist muh power and privilege herpdederpdedoo

When did racist become a noun instead of an adjective?
Annoys the shit out of me.

I think it's an implicit, indescribable belief by some people (western and non-western) that multiculturalism is reparations for colonialism.

You can argue the reality of that, but I think that's what people think.

Because many of the shit said on the film is utter bullshit or twisted in a way to fit a certain portrayal of the filmmakers.

He's right though. It's class issue heavily tied to race very much so.

The oldest buildings in the world are found in France so...

Oh bullshit, he expelled the French, Jewish, and UK nationals after going to war with them, hardly something racist.

The disorder caused by the rebellion ended 5 years before the film was shoot. That scene was staged.

The boers trekking back to Soht Africa is also total hogwash. They didn't tree to Kenya they used the then modern transportation of the early 1900's to go there. Hell one prominent boer...farmer in Kenya admits that the boers who went to Kenya were the ones who cooperated with the British in the Boer wars.

It was two elite groups fighting for power. The "native" resistance was of the Shorazi party, those who clim Persian descent and used their Persian claim to support their right to claim power over the indigenous people from the Arabs.

Ferenji don't know African politics

Oh and it said that slavery only ended in Zanzibar 10 centuries ago which his utter bull. It only ended 1897 and there were still old folk who lived as slaves when they were young in that period.

Hell as horrible as the genocide was the Arab dominated party completely was ballsy as fuck with it's sheer disrespect in general and was just setting up for shit to fall down in how it conducted itself politically on the island. You know how revolution's start? When the idiots higher up don't do jackshit to stop it.

-ists have always had dual nature that way

Fuck off with that Ferenji bullshit

Not all Black Zanzibaris were Shirazi, only a few of them even then Shirazi are mostly of Bantu extraction for the lack of a better word blood (still considered niggers, not niggas nigga but like slightly redeemed niggas). Most were just Black Africans.

The Afro-Shirazi party was a combo of the mostly Shirazi Shiraz Party and the mostly African Afro Party in the island of Zanzibar.

Like have you actually read how the election worked?

>In January 1961, as part of the process of decolonisation, the island's British authorities drew up constituencies and held democratic elections. Both the ASP and the ZNP won 11 of the available 22 seats in Zanzibar's Parliament, so further elections were held in June with the number of seats increased to 23. The ZNP entered into a coalition with the Zanzibar and Pemba People's Party (ZPPP) and this time took 13 seats, while the ASP, despite receiving the most votes, won just 10. Electoral fraud was suspected by the ASP and civil disorder broke out, resulting in 68 deaths. To maintain control, the coalition government banned the more radical opposition parties, filled the civil service with its own appointees, and politicised the police.

>In 1963, with the number of parliamentary seats increased to 31, another election saw a repeat of the 1961 votes. Due to the layout of the constituencies, which were gerrymandered by the ZNP, the ASP, led by Abeid Amani Karume, won 54 percent of the popular vote but only 13 seats,

Like how are you supposed to be objective about a film that clearly distorts so many things, omits important facts and histories, uses some lets be honest great camera work and angles to portray white and blacks as two big contrasts or civilized and savage when shot near each other (you know how you can make Pope Benedict look like the kindest old man you've ever seen and Darth Sidious/Emperor Palpatine?) and narrative misinfo and lines.

Not one line is mentioned about how the Kenyan Highlands were obtained for white settlement, who they were taken from how the Kenyan farming system worked on the colony (Blacks couldn't grow coffee until the late 1930's and many farmers were coerced into working as laborers for European farmers). The narrator says "the Highlands is the only land that whites can settle and work with" but it neglects to mention that

-Indians could not get any land from there.
-Natives were evicted from the land (guess who the Mau Mau consisted of).
-The big disparity between Blacks and whites in the colony in regards to just about anything.
-To protect their interests, the settlers banned the growing of coffee, introduced a hut tax and the landless were granted less and less land in exchange for their labour. A massive exodus to the cities ensued as their ability to provide a living from the land dwindled.
-Also 999-year leases to the white settlers.

Only after the rebellion were Africans able to grow coffee, the major cash crop.

Shirazi is not based on blood quantum it was rooted in prestige identity. They were the people that fought Arabs who themselves were not based on blood quantum.

The leadership was made of and lead by Shirazi interests, your Wikipedia copy-paste did not change the fact. You just lack context.

I didn't know that. In fact I don't know much about him.
The racist can fuck himself, no wonder arab countries are shit now.

How does that change the fact that human civilization effectively began in Mesopotamia? Also where are these buildings in France? Close to the Mediterranean coast or in the north.

Cumskins

Nasser kicking out whitey is justified in every way and not racist because whitey put themselves in Egypt by force.
