The ridiculousness of Douglas Murray... Let's take this point by point. 1) Douglas Murray is a grifter. He takes the position he thinks is most likely to gain him clout in the mainstream media by appealing to bigots and the upper class. 2) Murray is gaslighting billions of people in this video by saying non-white people are not justified in resenting the British monarchy and Empire for colonisation and slavery. Of course, they are justified and I imagine he would agree if the British colonised his land and sold his people into slavery. 3) The fact that working-class people in Britain were once also slaves does not negate the grievances of non-British people. Yes, we should make sure working-class people are not systematically exploited in the modern day but in general, that is not the case anyway when it comes to white-Brits compared to those whose countries were victims of colonisation and the British slave trade so the issue is mute. 4) The British banned slavery in the 1800s because they were scared of losing their Empire to slave revolts like what happened in Haiti when the slaves rebelled against the French. The British decided it would be more prudent to ban slavery and collect taxes from those entering the labour market for the first time in the Carrabien and elsewhere. 5) The slave trade is something to be proud of?? I can't believe he just said that. Just wow... 6) Did he just admit that wage slavery is comparable to the slave trade? I thought extracting surplus value from the exploitation of labour was a good thing Douglas? Make up your mind for god's sake. 7) Every child in British schools is bombarded with all kinds of justifications for the British monarchy and colonialism. Many British children think the Indian railways are one of the 7 wonders of the world! Of course, they were built solely to transport Indian workers so they could be exploited for their labour on behalf of the EIC, the crown and the empire. 8) Yes, people shouldn't be exploited. Why then do you promote the exploitation of workers in the capitalist system? Seems like you pick and choose which forms of exploitation you like based on the colour of the skin of the exploiter. 9) As a leftist, I fail to see how you can label the person interviewing Elon Musk a leftist. It was his job to defend traditional media against the rise of Social Media as a way of self-preservation of a dying industry. He failed. That isn't a failure for the left though, it's a failure of the establishment which leans right and of which, Douglas Murray is a part.
@Maurits van Oranje They created slave industries all over the world. Do you understand the concept of supply and demand? Slavery became the primary export of Africa, aided and abetted by Britain (as well as other European states). Simply put, without white Europeans, the market for African slaves would have been far smaller than it became. The British state, as well as private British interests (like the EIC) also funded and invested in the proliferation of slavery. Creating their own industries and supporting slavers in their endeavors. To say Africans were slavers is not a justification of slavery. It's an admission that colonialism made the lives of Africans so hard that they split into groups of slavers and slaves. Just as the working class and upper class in Britain was divided into exploiter and exploited. The only difference is, the upper class in Britain were able to dictate the actions of others across the world. That is the same power they used to export and profit from slavery by the way.
And to all Australians that do not know the BBC charges it's UK citizens with a TV License Fee, not only are they being ripped off, but are not exactly getting their monies worth. It's humiliating and pure embarrassment placed upon the British Public it truly is and this is what they have to put up with everyday.
The original deal was that BBC would get the economic support of the mandatory license fee in exchange for the BBC remaining OBJECTIVE. The BBC is supported by tax revenue and are nowhere close to objective. The most hilarious part of the interview is when the BBC clown announces “well we have limited time so let’s move on.” Who’s time is more valuable, his or Elon Musk’s?
@@joffey1212 Because they provide a service free from advertisers or special interests. Although the reality is, any government-funded institution is going to have a pro-government / pro-establishment bias. Still, at least it's not owned and controlled and owned by corporations like everything else in our corrupt capitalist society.
Douglas Murray is the epitome of brilliance. Is there anything this man doesn't know, he's absolutely amazing. The BBC did what it always does and edited this interview to make them look good and guess what, this part of the interview didn't make the grain , I wonder why? Thanks Rita, you're an absolute star.
He doesn't seem to know that the slave trade was banned in Britain to stop slave revolts around the colonies (similar to the one in Haiti) that might lead to the collapse of the Empire. Instead, the Empire decided to extract wealth by exploiting workers newly introduced to the labour market and taxing their earnings and sending those taxes back to Britain.
@@Libertariun Read the correspondence between aristocrats after the Haitian revolution. The British were terrified of rebellions in the Caribbean. Did you also know that the taxes levied on ex-slaves went to compensating slave owners for their perceived losses? This wasn't about altruism, it was about maintaining the kingdom and economy. The priorities of the British aristocracy have changed very little.
Even on BBC’s own TH-cam channel 99% of the comments was satisfied about BBCs humiliation. It says a lot about the level of support and trustworthiness towards them.
BBC has only one type of support - taxes... Hard earned money stolen by the government and given to an institution without question, what could go wrong right???
Yep. Vague accusations of "hate speech" is primarily used as a political weapon to shut down conversations and thought. This weaponization completely backfires when a critical thinker uses the proper responses.
The only empire in the world of human history that decided to push hard and really long to abolish slavery from within its borders and beyond is the British Empire.
I wonder if King Charles will pay reparations to all the Irish forced to leave home because the British took all the food out of the country and starved over a million Irish. Not a famine, a holocaust.
All I can say is that if they start paying reparations, then as an Englishman whose ancestors lived as feudal serfs for hundreds of years, I'll be expecting my cut!!
I want compensation for the Brits oppressing my Irish forebears and the Swiss Calvinists persecuting my AnaBaptist ancestors and the Spanish Inquisition booting my Sephardic Jewish ones. Ima gonna be RICH!
You can watch it several times and it doesn’t get old. On his BBC homepage he skirts around the embarrassment. He’s like a child playing with the adults totally out of his depth.
It never ceases to amaze me how people forget that Africa betrayed and sold its own people into slavery. Leaving that out of the story is purposefully misleading. Why aren't they making reparations then?
In 1833, Britain used 40% of its national budget to buy freedom for all slaves in the Empire. Britain borrowed such a large sum of money for the Slavery Abolition Act that it wasnt paid off until 2015. This means that living British citizens helped pay for the ending of the slave trade with their taxes
Well thanks for raping, murdering, enslaving and displacing millions of Africans; forcing them to work for literally nothing for 400+ years and the borrowing money to pay compensation to yourselves for you loss of free labour. No need to worry about the loan as some other unfortunate generation will fort the bill, and the inheritance for the former slave owners will be passed down ensuring they become the elite that control parts of the world today.. Of course, after 1833 all was well; and the former slaves were treated completely humane thereafter. Pat yourselves on the back. The level of ignorance, arrogance and delusion on display here is despicable. Your nations wealth was built of the back of slavery, the descendants of slave owners an the country benefited from the proceeds. They have blatantly hampered the African Diaspora for many years. The Arabs did it and the Africans also enslaved themselves (because they are all one nation of savages not individual nations on a continent). Also we also enslaved some white folk (Irish, Welsh and Scots) so shut up and deal with it is what I'm hearing. The fact is former slaves never received a dime nor were they restored; and it took well over a hundred years for use to even be treated as a fellow human after so called abolishment. I'm sorry but if I enslaved you, and then payed myself millions from back loan that someone else will pay back to set you free after doing the worst crimes ever (kill your dad, rape you and your daughters, enslave your sons and kill them if they don't comply, take every thing you ever had, land property, natural resources) It wouldn't cut it. What do you think MLK was fighting for, he got a bullet in his head for his trouble and all he wanted was for us to work together and be seen as equal. I'm not saying that repatriations is the answer, we at least need to have an honest discussion about thinking about solutions possibly mutually beneficial to move forward. It won't happen. Too much greed and corruption in this world. Personally I just get on with life and focus on trying to make the world better place. If reparations ever came, I'd use it for good.
Wasn't that money paid out to the white former owners of slaves by way of compensation? The records remain in the British Parliament archives and elsewhere down to the very names of the recipients and the amounts disbursed.
Most nowadays go in with a desired outcome, regardless of the truth. A good journalist will simply give prompts to let their interviewee provide interesting facts and insights. But then again, that is our hyperpartisan age. It's infected science as well, which is why we have studies supporting the trans nonsense...or at least being manipulated to show the a outcome the researcher wanted to show regardless of the truth.
How about people from England, Wales and Scotland enslaved in Ireland between the 5th and 12th centuries, sold in the Dublin slave market, and shipped to Iceland, and as far as the Indus river and Mediterranean? The Norse Gael slavery and slave trade is constantly overlooked.
@@Nora......... They care enough to claim that Irish people indentured to the USA and Caribbean were treated worse than actual enslaved peoples from Africa, without ever reflecting on their own past in slavery...and you are correct, we do not moan about slavery under the Roman's, the Vikings, the Saxons, the Irish or the Barbary trade. We never mention it to the extent people dont even know about it!
In ancient history, we know that Irish clans spent a lot of time invading Britain, particularly Wales and Northern England, and setting up colonies which turfed natives out. Out of sight, out of mind in the history books, but it doesn't mean it didn't happen or hurt someones ancestors. Britain has been one of the most invaded and colonised countries in Europe, to the extent we almost view it as beneficial, when in fact it was often subjugation, killing and theft of property on various native British peoples by Vikings, Romans, the Norsemen, French/Norman and waves of Germanics. The Danes caused endless havoc in their own way and ended up drawing a line through the country. Imagine being an early British peasant living in the North East, dealing with endless raids, upheaval and different masters. And these are some of our ancestors too. Lost to time but they existed, they felt and thought. They were valid also. Yet they are ignored. Do I expect modern folk to pay for the past deeds of their ancestors? Of course not. That's like blaming modern Germans for the crimes of the Third Reich.

So wait... King Charles might decide that working class Brits might have to pay more taxes, to pay for something that some rich people did hundreds of years ago?
No, the last King (the first Charles) who tried to get people to pay more taxes got his head chopped off by Parliament. Parliament ever since then has said "No, your majesty, we're the ones who get people to pay taxes".
It would have to come out of royal coffers. Remember that the former kings used to own actual plantations and take profits from them. Slaves who were freed from plantations were often given a surname from there, so guess why there are so many black Americans named King.

The man isn't nuanced or intelligent, that's why he appears on SKY NEWS, or do they get a pass from being considered mainstream media because you agree with Rupert Murdoch's personal politics?
Yup but it's fine. We're just gonna finance it with our reparations from the Romans. What about Alexander the Great or Ghengis Khan or... Modern people are not responsible for the moral judgements of their ancestors that's not just ludicrous woke nonsense as usual 🙄

God, I love it when Douglas Murray shows up to point out the ridiculousness.
yesssss
The ridiculousness of Douglas Murray... Let's take this point by point.
1) Douglas Murray is a grifter. He takes the position he thinks is most likely to gain him clout in the mainstream media by appealing to bigots and the upper class.
2) Murray is gaslighting billions of people in this video by saying non-white people are not justified in resenting the British monarchy and Empire for colonisation and slavery. Of course, they are justified and I imagine he would agree if the British colonised his land and sold his people into slavery.
3) The fact that working-class people in Britain were once also slaves does not negate the grievances of non-British people. Yes, we should make sure working-class people are not systematically exploited in the modern day but in general, that is not the case anyway when it comes to white-Brits compared to those whose countries were victims of colonisation and the British slave trade so the issue is mute.
4) The British banned slavery in the 1800s because they were scared of losing their Empire to slave revolts like what happened in Haiti when the slaves rebelled against the French. The British decided it would be more prudent to ban slavery and collect taxes from those entering the labour market for the first time in the Carrabien and elsewhere.
5) The slave trade is something to be proud of?? I can't believe he just said that. Just wow...
6) Did he just admit that wage slavery is comparable to the slave trade? I thought extracting surplus value from the exploitation of labour was a good thing Douglas? Make up your mind for god's sake.
7) Every child in British schools is bombarded with all kinds of justifications for the British monarchy and colonialism. Many British children think the Indian railways are one of the 7 wonders of the world! Of course, they were built solely to transport Indian workers so they could be exploited for their labour on behalf of the EIC, the crown and the empire.
8) Yes, people shouldn't be exploited. Why then do you promote the exploitation of workers in the capitalist system? Seems like you pick and choose which forms of exploitation you like based on the colour of the skin of the exploiter.
9) As a leftist, I fail to see how you can label the person interviewing Elon Musk a leftist. It was his job to defend traditional media against the rise of Social Media as a way of self-preservation of a dying industry. He failed. That isn't a failure for the left though, it's a failure of the establishment which leans right and of which, Douglas Murray is a part.
Yes!He's good!First time I saw him.
All those hatey hated words. Tsk tsk.
@Maurits van Oranje They created slave industries all over the world. Do you understand the concept of supply and demand? Slavery became the primary export of Africa, aided and abetted by Britain (as well as other European states).
Simply put, without white Europeans, the market for African slaves would have been far smaller than it became. The British state, as well as private British interests (like the EIC) also funded and invested in the proliferation of slavery. Creating their own industries and supporting slavers in their endeavors.
To say Africans were slavers is not a justification of slavery. It's an admission that colonialism made the lives of Africans so hard that they split into groups of slavers and slaves. Just as the working class and upper class in Britain was divided into exploiter and exploited. The only difference is, the upper class in Britain were able to dictate the actions of others across the world. That is the same power they used to export and profit from slavery by the way.
Clayton, the journalist you have when you are not having a journalist! 🤣
And to all Australians that do not know the BBC charges it's UK citizens with a TV License Fee, not only are they being ripped off, but are not exactly getting their monies worth.

Also if we don't pay they send debt collectors with the police to force into your home..!
Very true
The original deal was that BBC would get the economic support of the mandatory license fee in exchange for the BBC remaining OBJECTIVE. The BBC is supported by tax revenue and are nowhere close to objective.
The most hilarious part of the interview is when the BBC clown announces “well we have limited time so let’s move on.” Who’s time is more valuable, his or Elon Musk’s?
Why are you paying it ,grow some and cancel it

The BBC did what it always does and edited this interview to make them look good and guess what, this part of the interview didn't make the grain , I wonder why?
Thanks Rita, you're an absolute star.
He doesn't seem to know that the slave trade was banned in Britain to stop slave revolts around the colonies (similar to the one in Haiti) that might lead to the collapse of the Empire. Instead, the Empire decided to extract wealth by exploiting workers newly introduced to the labour market and taxing their earnings and sending those taxes back to Britain.
@@HopeIsFleeting what bs!
@@Libertariun Read a book
@@HopeIsFleeting Cite your sources.
@@Libertariun Read the correspondence between aristocrats after the Haitian revolution. The British were terrified of rebellions in the Caribbean.

Woke king. Thousands of British Naval men died fighting the slave trade. Slaves in Saudi and China
West Africa Squadron.
The only empire in the world of human history that decided to push hard and really long to abolish slavery from within its borders and beyond is the British Empire.
I wonder if King Charles will pay reparations to all the Irish forced to leave home because the British took all the food out of the country and starved over a million Irish. Not a famine, a holocaust.
No. They have insufficient melanin in their skin to make them eligible for reparations.
All I can say is that if they start paying reparations, then as an Englishman whose ancestors lived as feudal serfs for hundreds of years, I'll be expecting my cut!!
Ditto.
I want compensation for the Brits oppressing my Irish forebears and the Swiss Calvinists persecuting my AnaBaptist ancestors and the Spanish Inquisition booting my Sephardic Jewish ones. Ima gonna be RICH!
I’m half English serf and half Scot’s - removed during the clearances. I claim double reparations 😂
Swedish separate from Welsh! 😂
I have Saxon DNA (from a test kit). My ancestors were enslaved by Normans. I demand compensation from the French. Is that how it works?
You can watch it several times and it doesn’t get old. On his BBC homepage he skirts around the embarrassment. He’s like a child playing with the adults totally out of his depth.
Can't believe he still has a job! Oh sorry it's the BBC so of course he still has a job...
It never ceases to amaze me how people forget that Africa betrayed and sold its own people into slavery. Leaving that out of the story is purposefully misleading. Why aren't they making reparations then?
In 1833, Britain used 40% of its national budget to buy freedom for all slaves in the Empire. Britain borrowed such a large sum of money for the Slavery Abolition Act that it wasnt paid off until 2015. This means that living British citizens helped pay for the ending of the slave trade with their taxes
Speak this fact of history loud and clear and repeatedly and endlessly and relentlessly.
Its the scum who they're paying who should be made to pay reparations. they should have sought that money back
So, if this idiocy over reparations goes the way of the dodo does that mean the British taxpayer gets a refund on all that money that was paid out?
Well thanks for raping, murdering, enslaving and displacing millions of Africans; forcing them to work for literally nothing for 400+ years and the borrowing money to pay compensation to yourselves for you loss of free labour. No need to worry about the loan as some other unfortunate generation will fort the bill, and the inheritance for the former slave owners will be passed down ensuring they become the elite that control parts of the world today..
Of course, after 1833 all was well; and the former slaves were treated completely humane thereafter. Pat yourselves on the back.
The level of ignorance, arrogance and delusion on display here is despicable. Your nations wealth was built of the back of slavery, the descendants of slave owners an the country benefited from the proceeds. They have blatantly hampered the African Diaspora for many years.
The Arabs did it and the Africans also enslaved themselves (because they are all one nation of savages not individual nations on a continent). Also we also enslaved some white folk (Irish, Welsh and Scots) so shut up and deal with it is what I'm hearing.
The fact is former slaves never received a dime nor were they restored; and it took well over a hundred years for use to even be treated as a fellow human after so called abolishment.
I'm sorry but if I enslaved you, and then payed myself millions from back loan that someone else will pay back to set you free after doing the worst crimes ever (kill your dad, rape you and your daughters, enslave your sons and kill them if they don't comply, take every thing you ever had, land property, natural resources) It wouldn't cut it.
What do you think MLK was fighting for, he got a bullet in his head for his trouble and all he wanted was for us to work together and be seen as equal.
I'm not saying that repatriations is the answer, we at least need to have an honest discussion about thinking about solutions possibly mutually beneficial to move forward.
It won't happen. Too much greed and corruption in this world.
Personally I just get on with life and focus on trying to make the world better place. If reparations ever came, I'd use it for good.
Wasn't that money paid out to the white former owners of slaves by way of compensation? The records remain in the British Parliament archives and elsewhere down to the very names of the recipients and the amounts disbursed.
Douglas Murray always has something profound to say 👍🏼

@@Nora......... They care enough to claim that Irish people indentured to the USA and Caribbean were treated worse than actual enslaved peoples from Africa, without ever reflecting on their own past in slavery...and you are correct, we do not moan about slavery under the Roman's, the Vikings, the Saxons, the Irish or the Barbary trade. We never mention it to the extent people dont even know about it!
In ancient history, we know that Irish clans spent a lot of time invading Britain, particularly Wales and Northern England, and setting up colonies which turfed natives out. Out of sight, out of mind in the history books, but it doesn't mean it didn't happen or hurt someones ancestors.
Britain has been one of the most invaded and colonised countries in Europe, to the extent we almost view it as beneficial, when in fact it was often subjugation, killing and theft of property on various native British peoples by Vikings, Romans, the Norsemen, French/Norman and waves of Germanics. The Danes caused endless havoc in their own way and ended up drawing a line through the country. Imagine being an early British peasant living in the North East, dealing with endless raids, upheaval and different masters. And these are some of our ancestors too. Lost to time but they existed, they felt and thought. They were valid also. Yet they are ignored.
Do I expect modern folk to pay for the past deeds of their ancestors? Of course not. That's like blaming modern Germans for the crimes of the Third Reich.

@@MrLump Not a joke at all. I wanted to buy an EV here in California because the rebates and tax credits make it a no-brainer. There are other companies that I could have chosen for the purchase and I chose Tesla. I chose Tesla because it's got Elon Musk all over it.

You should carry a fire extinguisher wherever you go and a relatively long extension cord if going outside the city limits. Oh, and a fold up bicycle in the trunk.
It doesn’t matter what room Elon Musk is in or whom else is in the room, he would pretty much always be “The smartest person in the room” If you go up against Elon you’d better be sure of your facts.
Elon Musk is undoubtedly a smart man, but he did not come across as arrogant. He answered the questions put to him in a straightforward way. Has the ability to say it like it is, become strange and troubling to us? I for one feel it is refreshing to not to have a PR spin and focus instead on the
facts.
It would matter if he were in the same room as me.
Elon is fantastic in that interview...... 🎉🎉
The British already paid reparations....
We in Europe have been waiting for reperations from Rome for 2000 years now ,those damn romans!😁
The best comment! 😂🎉
But they did reparations in advance. They gave us sanitation, medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, fresh water system and public health. I know it all went wrong when they left, but that was our fault for not properly running things ourselves.
The King should pay back all the wealth they have stolen from the British people. And he and his family can get a job to support themselves.
Pathetic? Add the BBC to the list.
Also its hard not to add CNN ( except Wolf) , MSNBC
It's been hilarious watching the main stream coverage of this interview as opposed to how it actually went down.
If Charles wants to give HIS money away then good. But NOT the British Taxpayers money.
Elon didn't get rich by a stroke of luck. He is not glib, he listens and then thinks about what he's just heard and then replies. He's a genius.
He’s a genius because he thinks before he replies?
@@johnp515 No, he's a genius and he thinks before he replies.
Who would have thought that trying to score points on someone far more intelligent could backfire.
The thing is, you didn't have to be that intelligent to at least prepare some examples. I mean it really is incompetency at its finest 😂
@@ianmatthews7385 you do know that Musk gave them 1 hour to send someone to his location and perform the interview right? He not only knew that he'd be interviewed by someone unprepared, he counted on it.
@@kayleighc1681 🤣 are you kidding me. With the resources the BBC have? If you want to take someone down with your line of questioning you need to be prepared or don't do it. If they went with an interested approach in the things he is working on it would have gone differently.
@@kayleighc1681 An actual news channel with thousands of staff couldn't prepare for an interview THEY requested? Incompetence is definitely the correct term here.
Also... Where did you get the information that only an hour was given? The known liar that is James Clayton? Elon actually tweeted "I said BBC could come Twitter, then, to my surprise, a reporter shows up". I put it to you that you're peddling misinformation. If that is the case then the person you're replying to most definitely didn't know this 'information', even though you started the sentence with "you do know", which makes assumptions about that person's previous interactions and research pertaining to this story.
They doubled down of course. If you see the BBC's coverage the same interview it speaks volumes.
Douglas, no splinters in his ass from sitting on the fence. As usual brilliantly said.
He sounds like a child, ‘your app is so bad I don’t even use it anymore.’
‘If you don’t use it now do you know it is bad?’
‘I don’t want to talk about it!’
When it comes to wingnuts, do not rule out any level of crass stupidity.
Elon musk is one of the best critical thinkers I've ever seen, right up there with Thomas Sowell.
Douglas is so great
The british monarchy ended with Queen Elizabeth II.
0:26 There hasn't been a "King of England" since 1702. We do however, have a King of the United kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
My Scottish ancestors, who fought in the 1715 Battle of Dunbar and ended up as prisoners, were sold into slavery and shipped to the United States. Does that mean I'm entitled to money, or is it dependent on the color of my skin?
According to the woke white people can't have been slaves. It's the same with feminism. Men have to viewed as perpetrators, women can't do anything wrong, therefore always victims.
Thank you Douglas,as always the voice of reason on everything, my hero 👏
Oh wow. I love the British sarcasm! And yeah for Sky News…
His BBC office "water cooler" told him the acceptable TWITTER position, and he took it no questions asked.
It was great watching that hack squirm.
I don't understand why a country's leaders would do this to their own country.
