Korean here, I'll hold my "historically abused" credentials up against anyone else's, including a still existing Russian-installed state that is the most brutal in history. You imply that I am saying if I were doing it all over again in the 1500s, I would advocate slavery. Of course not. That is an absurd and baseless allegation. But it cannot be denied that as a consequence, writing, the wheel, and numerous other inventions were introduced. (Yes, I know paleolithic was not universal). Was it "worth it"? Hell no. But it happened.Therefore, Africans were not materially held back by Europeans and are entitled to no material compensation now, even if I accept this antiquated "corruption of blood" argument used to condone Jewish genocide.

So Boerd, antiquated it might be if the systems of oppression didn't remain active today. But they are... so, it's not exactly an out-dated thing.

Nobody is talking about material compensation. We're talking about redefining the values assigned to individuals based on their colour and background. They are currently skewed to the extreme and that is a problem. You say that this way of thinking is what condoned the Jewish genocide, but I'd say that more coloured individuals have been incarcerated and murdered unjustly largely due to an accident of birth. We live in a world where walking into a room while dark skinned can identify you as a threat. That's more likely to cause another racially driven genocide, in my opinion.
