He's dead, you can make him say whatever you want.

i hope your dealer never runs out of drugs and that you always have enough money to pay him

Who needs Radio 4, eh?

I didn't know. :(
Did he do a suicide?

And rightly so, because I knew he would be calling me a kokot afterwards!

ahem:

"No rational man, cognizant of the facts, believes that the average Negro is the equal, still less the superior, of the white man. And if this be true, it is simply incredible that, when all his disabilities are removed, and our prognathus relative has a fair field and no favour, as well as no oppressor, he will be able to compete successfully with his bigger-brained and smaller jawed rival, in a contest which is to be carried out on by thoughts and not by bites ."

Charles Darwin The Descent of Man page 20

and could we forget page 179

"The standard of intelligence of the average Negro is similar to that of the eleven-year-old youth of the species Homo sapiens"

(so black folks are a different species are they darwin?)

So I suppose that is that then?

are you familiar with social darwinism? people have not necessarily taken his theories in the direction you are hoping for, not even Darwin himself, that is the invention of open-minded folks like us from the future.. Darwin was not strong enough to overcome the bigotry of his time, which is a shame, because plenty of white folks were NOT racist at that time, but he continued to believe in bunk pseudo-science..

mistah kurtz! he dead!

oh, people can understand this concept fine, it is Charles Darwin who did not.. in fact

"At some future period, not very distant as measured by centuries, the civilized races of man will almost certainly exterminate, and replace, the savage races throughout the world. At the same time the anthropomorphous apes, as Professor Schaaffhausen has remarked, will no doubt be exterminated. The break between man and his nearest allies will then be wider, for it will intervene between man in a more civilized state, as we may hope, even than the Caucasian, and some ape as low as a baboon, instead of as now between the Negro or Australian and the gorilla."



Yeah, thats all about equality there..
