Not just back then, the contempt and to various degrees veiled racism of liberals is still significant—admittedly it’s better hidden. Consider why Turkey is refused entry to the EU, but Georgia and other countries are being welcomed. Consider all the claims that Russians are barbaric or violent people, often by liberals who claim to condemn racism. Many liberals won’t say it outright, but the believe those from “developing” (colonized and imperialized) counties are uncivilized and hence can’t progress or prosper. Liberal empire claims to be humaine, but will ravage the Middle East because they see Arabs as incapable of governing themselves. Actually, a similar logic of empire can be applied that which European powers used to justify their brutality. In other words, the racism we saw back then exists now, and it’s tied to imperialism.
