The diseases you are talking about when you blame Europeans for millions of deaths.

When do they stop being European diseases Gandalf?

No really FD, thats a direct answer. It really is a simple application of common sense. You should try it some day.

If an arab person travels to Europe with a disease they contracted in Arabia, its an arab disease. If a European person infects someone in America with a disease they contracted in Europe, its a European disease.

Its really not relevant what happens after that, or even before that. The disease could have been developed on the moon for all I care. Like I said, its a point in time thing.

And it certainly doesn't help when you just fabricate stuff like accusing me of assuming it remains "European" forever, and on that basis its "convenient racism" or whatever.

So when you blame Europeans for millions of deaths in the Americas due to European disease, you actually mean millions of individual Europeans each raping individual native Americans and giving the disease to them?

Or is this a very stretchy "point in time"?

Millions of people died in the Americas because the Europeans invaded, raped and pillaged their lands. A fair proportion (though I don't know exactly how much) died from diseases spread by the Europeans. But a good deal also from other things like starvation, forced labour and just good old fashioned murder. Are you going to dispute that?

I'll let you argue the toss over who is to "blame" or morally responsible for that.

Is that a yes or a no gandalf?

Most of the deaths were due to disease.

I explained what I meant FD. You can't dispute it, thats why you persist with these childish games.

Do you acknowledge millions died because European invaded, raped and pillaged the Americas? Don't worry FD, you are free to evade that like you always do.

Who'd have thought it would be such a trauma to acknowledge the devastation caused by invasion, rape and pillage?

Are you conceding that most did not die of European diseases? Does that mean you no longer think Europeans are to blame?

Why would you say that?

Millions died because the Europeans invaded, raped and pillaged the Americas. I don't know the exact breakdown of the deaths, but its reasonable to assume most died from the diseases the Europeans brought and spread. But plenty died from other related causes - like starvation, forced labor and just plain murder. Agreed?

And in case its not clear, I blame Europeans for all of the deaths. Wacist I know.

It wasn't rape and pillage to the Europeans. It was conquest. The same thing humans have been doing since year dot.

Yes, Homo, but are you saying they spread European diseases during their conquests, or Arab ones?

Please explain?
