Summary
King Felipe VI of Spain faced a hostile crowd in Valencia, where unprecedented floods have devastated communities, leaving over 200 dead and many missing. Footage shows protesters shouting “murderer” and “shame” at the king, with some throwing objects and mud as he walked through the affected area of Paiporta.
All cultures to a greater or lesser extent, enjoy the fruits of raping and pillaging other groups. That is just how it was done for the entirety of human existence
People like you just like to concentrate on your own perceived exceptionalism and that of your group. All this intelectual dishonesty serves to get economic benefit from playing the victim
Genocide and theft are okay because everyone does it?
Tell me that you’re of European descent without telling me you’re of European descent.
You mean like how Chinese, Mongols, Japanese, Namibians, Egyptians, Somalians, Aztec, Cherokee, all raped and pillaged to their hearts content for literally hundreds and some for more that a thousand years, until someone stronger showed up?
Yeah, get a history book
And no, I am not European or American or come from any developed country. I am Latin American, but unlike you, I don’t get my education from internet bulletin boards
Smells like whitesplaining in here…
No. Smells like concentrated ignorance. Read a book. Every civilization did war crimes. Sorry to tell you dear, but eveyry single one did. So don’t be a hypocrite.
You think Muslims conquered all north africa and part of Europe with the power of love and flowers? Or that Japan, in the XX century was just having fun with china? Or that the Aztecs beheaded people but just a little?
Hitites and the gang of Mesopotamia ring a bell?
Technically speaking you’d have to say they did war crimes by modern standards.
A lot of what you describe wasn’t actually criminal at the time, see. It was called “war”.
Doesn’t make it any less horrific, mind.
