Interesting to see the UN claiming trillions from Britain for reparations of past slavery of blacks, whilst giving no regard to the massive degrees of historic slavery of whites. In the 17th century coastal dwellers of Britain lived in constant terror of being kidnapped and sold into slavery in North Africa.
A generation is around 25 years, three generations is around just 75 years of domicile history before being considered a citizen committed enough to be worthy of setting domestic laws or/and governance. If you want to seek out racism then look to Japan, African states ..etc. and their (lack of) diversity of MP's.
I would agree with you in respect of Japan. The rest of your post reads like a National Front leaflet. The industrial-scale enslavement which saw Africans taken to North America never happened to white people. Personally I find all this talk of reparations just silly. What’s done is done. But it doesn’t change the facts.
And if you don’t think that having a three-generation requirement for MPs isn’t racist then you’re delusional. 1930s Germany had similar laws.
Slavery in the Ottoman Empire was a major institution and a significant part of the Ottoman Empire's economy and traditional society https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery_i ... man_Empire
Personally I opine that slavery persists to the present day, but rather than clothing/sheltering/feeding the slaves directly, slaves are allocated a subsistence 'wage' instead - paid paper fiat currency that has no real tangible value, in some cases insufficient to feed/clothe/shelter themselves such that they have to rely upon charity such as food-banks.
