What did I think of it?

>>25620051
The movie was better.

The only way to convince white people that colonization is a bad idea is to frame them as the victims, "The jungle is too dark and wild for civillized people" works great as a plot device when people can only read about these places
>>
>>25620067
Pretty sure all modern white people think colonialism is bad because it oppresses the natives and none of them think what you're saying

>Published as a book in 1902

context is important

No, we don't.

>>25620051
You probably thought the scene where suddenly the boat is under arrow fire in the silent dark night was well written.
>>
>>25620080
If you have fringe chud views like 'colonialism good' you're not really a 'modern' white person are you

Bros how do I get a gf like Kurtz's?

>>25620093
Is it good being a modern white person? Seems like all the places they spend their money on traveling to in their 20s (instead of having kids) are less ‘diverse’ than the cities they live in.

oh good another honk fragility thread, how swell

>>25620101
If you oppose third world mass migration you should logically oppose colonialism, what is your point?
>>
>>25620891
You claim the two are related.
There are nations being overrun by people who never had aforementioned nation present on their soil. Sweden has Somalis and Syrians raping their youth.

Fuck you disgusting leftie for even daring to make that argument.
>>
>>25620908
I claimed no such thing you moron. If Europeans have the right to have their homeland ruled by and for natives without foreign interference then so does every other group of people.

If you oppose colonialism you also have to oppose mass migration and vice versa. Otherwise you're no better than the leftists who think Europeans deserve to be punished for Imperialism.
>>
>>25620924
>nooo you have to be egalitarian
Not how the world works. If you allow them to be on equal footing they will aspire to trample you that’s just how the world works, cynical as it may seem. It’s also why I don’t care that thirdies die from natural disasters.

>>25620876
>honk fragility
What the fuck are you talking about?
>>
>>25620057
This movie fucking sucked, lmao.
>>
>>25620982
>equal footing

What are you talking about? I literally just said countries should be run by natives for natives, no foreigner should be able to vote, own property or claim benefits. Only natives should have citizenship in any given place, that's equality.

Anti imperialism, national sovereignty and ethnonationalism are the same thing.

It sucks and Conrad is a coping ESL who stuffs as many words into a sentence as he can to show how not ESL he is. The message is fine but Conrad has some of the worst prose I've encountered among big writers

>>25621052
You are brown

Been awhile. I remember it being a bit confusing at parts, boring in other parts, and largely being underwhelmed.

I probably should get around to re-reading it.

I do agree with >>25620057
Movie was better.
>>
>>25620999
And you never will.
