The YouTube channel Lotuseaters recently did a video about the situation in Barbados, which I found quite interesting.
Barbados recently declared its complete independence from Great Britain, and elected its first president. For some reason there's a big amount of far-leftist BLM activists in the country advocating for... I don't even know what.
The population of the country is 91% black, and something like 4% white, with the rest belonging to other ethnic groups. The country is currently a single-party state, with 100% of parliamentary seats belonging to one single political party. A leftist party. 100% of the members of parliament are black. 100% of the government is black. It is my understanding that 100%, or very nearly 100%, of police officers in the country are black.
In other words, there doesn't appear to be a single person in a governmental position of power who is not black. Or something else than a leftist.
Economically the country seems to be relatively wealthy. The majority of the people don't seem to be living in poverty or poor conditions, and their life quality seems to be that of an average western country.
The country literally sounds like the Utopia and paradise of far-leftist BLM social justice warriors. Exactly what they want. An isolated (literally isolated, as it's an island state) independent country where the overwhelming majority of people are black, and is 100% governed and policed by black people, and isn't even in economic ruin nor suffering from extreme poverty. Pretty much the closest thing to a real-life Wakanda that they could possibly hope for.
Yet, the local BLM activists are organizing protests, claiming that there's "white supremacy" and "racism" in the country, and they are making lists of demands to the government (they really love their lists of demands, don't they?)
Demanding what? Who knows. And how exactly is there "white supremacy" and "racism" in the country, when literally 100% of the government is black, and leftist? To my understanding there's not even a single white person in any sort of position of power (or even if there is, they can probably be counted with the fingers of one hand.) As far as I understand, the vast majority of businesses in the country are owned or run by local black people. (There are many businesses that are just subsidiaries or branches of multinational corporations. I don't know how many local businesses there are that are privately owned by white people, but I would guess not so many, at least in comparison.)
Their protests and accusations make absolutely no sense. They can't even point out where exactly the "racism" and the "white supremacy" is. But it certainly is there! Why else would they be protesting, and making demands of the government?
The truth is that it doesn't need to make sense. They are just spouting religious dogma. Religious doctrine. It doesn't have to be based on reality or make any sense. The claims are repeated blindly, and are the absolute unquestionable Truth. There's no need for evidence, there's no need for rational reasoning. It is the Truth, period. It's dogma, and it cannot be questioned. "Racism" exists in the country because it does, period. It doesn't need to be proven or demonstrated. It doesn't matter if there aren't concrete examples. It doesn't even matter that the very definition of "racism" by the far left is "prejudice plus power", and that by the leftist definition of the word only white people can be racist, and it doesn't matter that there isn't a single white person in power. There still is racism in the country, period.
This is in no way different than many Christians saying "even if you are a good person, you are still sinful and unsaved". Actions and thoughts don't matter. Sin exists regardless. Or, in this case, "racism".
