The world is woke to Western posturing and global white privilege

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.

  1. 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.
