POC can't be racist, "self-crit"

That was his choice and probably a result mostly of the abuse he received at the hands of his father who frequently made fun of his big nose, etc.

And where did his father get that idea? You can not possibly deny the fact that European beauty standard has been destructive as fuck.

Isn't beauty standard as a thing pretty destructive inherently? It's a universal human act, not specific to white cultures. It's basically a consensus on what's ugly and what's not. None of his other children lightened their skin or got nose jobs. And look at a picture of them, they all have the same skin tone, and similar facial features. I'd think that Joe Jackson specifically targeted Michael for some other reason.

I'm not saying that it's good or deserved, I'm saying that is what happens. If you build an extremely violent and repressive colony and then leave without the colonialists, what do you think happens to the colonialists? Same thing happened in Haiti when the slaves rebelled.

If you keep the people hungry they'll strike back twice as hard. Hunger doesn't know right from wrong or what is deserved or not.

Well I'd like to think that moral ideologies would acknowledge that there are appropriate targets to overthrow oppression. Using race, genetic accidents, as the criteria is just wrong. Aside from that, the whites being killed there are essentially the equivalent of poor white trash. Nat Turner, who by all means was probably a little on the crazy side with his religious prophet stuff, knew they weren't the oppressors. And his revolt specifically targeted whites. Revolution needs to be organized around strong ideals, not just whatever pisses off whoever, which may not even be based in reality. Otherwise you're going to have something terrible replace the terrible.
