The
West’s disingenuous position on Israel and its coordinated attacks on
China have blown the cover of the liberal narratives it uses to hide a
postcolonial, imperialist agenda
Its hypocrisy has been further
exposed by its hoarding of coronavirus vaccines and the systemic racism
that prompted the Black Lives Matter protests and fuelled attacks on
people of Asian descent.
A tipping point has been reached,
even if it has hardly been discussed within societies and by political
leaders. Across the non-Western world, there is growing awareness and
rejection of the hypocrisy, insincerity and insecurity embedded in the
Western world with regard to its relations with the global majority.
Western
narratives and propaganda took hold across the world over the last 200
years as a result of colonisation and imperialism. Mind capture was a
necessary tool of oppression to subjugate people. And despite
decolonisation, mental colonisation became the new frontier and remains a
key strategy of postcolonial imperialism. Citizens of former colonies
remained receptive to Western ideas, having been indoctrinated for so
long, and this influence is still actively cultivated via Western soft
power as well as through Western education and its global media.
Today,
much of the Western world retains the mentality that their nations and
“white people” are superior, with the singular goal of retaining global
economic dominance. This, even though the rest of the world is acutely
aware of the dangers of extreme forms of “White People First” as
manifested in Donald Trump and his tumultuous presidency. Yet we still
see efforts to actively preserve white privilege, which goes well beyond
egregious acts of racism against people of colour.

Watch this video on Youtube - 'White slums of South Africa' documentary.
Gone are the days of white supremacy in South Africa and today the tables are turned against the Whites. The richer Whites do still control 50% of the wealth in South Africa, but living behind high walled mansions possibly in fear.
The Blacks in Africa have thrown out the Whites in most of the countries on that continent and this undoubtedly is also the fear of White supremacist in the USA. Blacks are the predominant race in all of Africa and there is nothing the Whites can do over there.
But this is unlikely to happen in the USA, Canada or Australia because the Blacks there came from Africa and they are not the Natives nor the majority race unlike in Africa. All the natives of North America and Australia have been reduced to impotence, so taking back their land is impossible.
In those bygone days, the Whites were treating the Blacks in South Africa like animals. It was not until more than two decades ago that Apartheid ended. Now the poorer section of the White community are suffering their Karma, though some complained that they had nothing to do with the past. It is surprising that Karma is happening so soon in South Africa.
