      british people all being brainwashed for decades by Iranian and chinese propaganda peddlers in schools
      when you realize Cecil didn't want to share with a people who was SEEKING to steal and MURDER his people.
      which eventually they did and Still hisotry books be like Cecil was racist.
      look it's happening in every western country where MARXIST activists (humans who have NO history family or otherwise) twigging together to burn down establishment becaue some HISTORICAL LIES where told in schools.
      THis should be considered an act of treason if teachers satrt pushing race communism but it isn't
      and England will be putting whites as 2nd class citiz.... wait that happened in 2015

    I consider his success to be incredible considering his upbringing.He did what everyone else was doing at the time.The revisionist history is really getting old at this point.

    We were just doing what everyone else was doing we were just following orders. Does that sound familiar? How can one so cold and not have some sympathy for so many millions that suffered so much in Africa and South America. The same goes to "Great Men" like Augustus or Genghis Khan. They were murderers plundered oppressed, and for what, to be called "Great Men"
    It's not revisionism is calling things for what they are.

    Not many biographies mention his homosexuality. They say things like his sexuality was "complicated". I would guess that, if the two men (Rhodes and Hitler) could have met, they would share a lot of views

By your logic holding the same standards, if hitler changed his attitude at the end of his life you would be defending him the same way as you defend Cecil. Nasty thinking there son!🤭
