Gandhi thought black people were subhuman

Re: Gandhi thought black people were subhuman

dunno yar.. i remember closing that thread cause it was getting pretty lame. kheyr it probably has more relevance to 'world affairs' from the perspective of Pakistanis than it has to 'culture' since gandhi isnt really an element of Pakistani culture.

Re: Gandhi thought black people were subhuman

Is this one article to be taken as the truth and an indictment of Gandhi?

Even if true, would he be any more of a racist than those (including prophets) who owned black slaves throughout history?

Re: Gandhi thought black people were subhuman

Yaar we all knew Gandhi was a little kooky. I love the advice he gave to the Jews during the Holocaust. :bukbuk:

Re: Gandhi thought black people were subhuman

Gandhi was not a racist. Did he continue saying the same thing throughout his life? What he said in his early days of his political life, he believed in the superiority of the British Kingdome.
Congress in its early days used to sing, God save the King’ and so the Congress was pro imperialism?
In 1921 Gandhi started the non-cooperation movement, and India was at the verge of independence, but Gandhi took back the movement after a little bloodshed at Chora Chaury. He claimed that India was not ready for freedom.
Was Gandhi against freedom?
He never tried to hide anything and kept on maturing his thoughts.
From ‘God save the King’ of his beliefs from end of 19th century to his declaration that the British were devil rulers of mid 20s, he traveled a long path and for that deserved all praises.

Can I talk a little of Jinnah, the gentleman in suit, never liked to read quran or offer namaz, a lover of pork and French wines, since 1940 onwards imitate to be a Muslim, changes his suit to sherwani, as he knows that religion is an easy path to achieve power.
And so, who was Jinnah? Quaede Azam or a…………?

Re: Gandhi thought black people were subhuman

LOL looks like someone's a little jealous of Jinnah.:p

Re: Gandhi thought black people were subhuman

The assertion that Gandhi was a racists is as stupid as suggestion PAF has superiority over IAF.

Re: Gandhi thought black people were subhuman

Yeah the nerve of some people, after all IAF only has the highest accident rate in the world. They are the best, (err in crashing their own planes).

Re: Gandhi thought black people were subhuman

Re: Gandhi thought black people were subhuman

YLH is a major whack job…a typically delusional ultra-patriotic Pakistani…the unenlightened immoderate type…

Re: Gandhi thought black people were subhuman

Nelson Mandela: the most successful terrorist. But South Africa is still a ****ty country.

Re: Gandhi thought black people were subhuman

well maybe not the best way to put it, but the opinions are idiotic and quite out of place as thread is bout gandhi

Re: Gandhi thought black people were subhuman

guess this is where one needs to remind you: 1971 Kargil carper etc.

Anyway, people listen:

Gandhi is not a racist. He simply happened to be the greatest Indian and Pakistani.

I know it’s hard for you guys to stomach it but there it is.

Re: Gandhi thought black people were subhuman

Wiseone, I do not understand your referee system. Gandhi was not a racist and his life is an open book.
why the statement about Jinnah is idiotic? Did not he start imitating a good Muslim since 1940 only?

Re: Gandhi thought black people were subhuman

^ why the heck r u trying to argue with these idiots! they can't rest until someone gives an osacar to some movie about pakistan or Jinnah. Until then the only way they can do is vent frustration and find this kind of crap as evidence. I wouldn't be surprised if ak47 in a sudden burst of piety finds some hadith to prove Gandhiji was all that.

Re: Gandhi thought black people were subhuman

lol good one

Re: Gandhi thought black people were subhuman

I'm sure these statements have been taken out of context, and even if Gandhi did say these things, we have to realise political leaders are not saints, liberators like Mandela and King surely had flaws. It is human to err. And back in those days, such terminology for Africans was common, someone mentioned the British influence.

Re: Gandhi thought black people were subhuman

paki's live in the martial race fantasy and being different from us kafirs and dream of returning the 500 yr old mughal rule on kafirs and we the kafirs specially females like me live in the fantasy of paki males:D

Re: Gandhi thought black people were subhuman
