Dutch colonial imperialism is the best colonial imperialism.

Re: Capitalism, The Best Solution to Poverty
Brian you are seeing it from the same angle. The Dutch were no better than the rest. What happened in Suriname was not pretty and we left a mess behind.Brian Peacock wrote: ↑Wed Mar 25, 2020 11:12 pmDutch colonial imperialism is the best colonial imperialism.

Re: Capitalism, The Best Solution to Poverty
Wallonië was a compromise after the 1813 uprising. It has never worked because they dont.
Btw never call them Belgians especially in Luik/Luttich/ Liége, Antwerpen/Anvers or Brussel/Bruxelles

Re: Capitalism, The Best Solution to Poverty
We actually have a supplier in Belgium. Fine people, but they don't appreciate the banter about cutting off hands of people that couldn't meet rubber quotas in the Congo. That is what Antwerp means.

Good beer and the food in Brussel is outstanding as long as they pay.

Re: Capitalism, The Best Solution to Poverty
It is not banter but pure fact. Antwerpen does mean that but not Antwerp. "Werpen" means throw and "Ant" means hand in Antwerps. But has nothing to do with the Congo. It is a middle age myth.rainbow wrote: ↑Fri Mar 27, 2020 2:20 pmWe actually have a supplier in Belgium.

Re: Capitalism, The Best Solution to Poverty
I cant see the connection that is made between the Congo and the name Antwerpen as they have nothing in common.
