So it is okay for him to be a racist for as long as he was struggling?, quite frankly I like the word struggle simply because Malcolm x never achieved anything other than being shot!
The ends can never justify the means..!
Youtube his speeches now. He was fighting for freedom by ANY MEANS NECESSARY and at the time, the majority of the whites he was around would have rather seen him dead then eat a meal, literally. This was war.
Again, what exactly are you failing to grasp or are you just admitting that you this subject is beyond your reasoning? The evidence is piling up with each post.
So lets look at it your way but this time I'll simplify it with a basic philosophical statement, seeing as your signature might imply you are interested in philosophy.
Alright, lets say Malcolm X is a racist and his life goal is to eliminate another group(white supremacists) who are racist and want him and his kind gone or enslaved. The only difference between the two is the white supremacist is the group that is IN-CONTROL(they make the laws) and therefore have the ability to abolish racism and at the same time the white supremacist group is also the group that INIATED slavery and racism for over 400+ years.
THEREFORE, would it not be logical for Malcolm X, to attempt to save himself and his kind by eliminating the enemy that is in-control of the situation, the enemy that STARTED AND INITIATED AND SUPPORTS THE RACISM WAR.
Would it not be logical for someone like Malcolm X to not be therefor racist himself? If a group of people hate you with a passion, why then can you not hate them with a passion? Why should the group that is already being oppressed unfairly, cower and further submit? If Malcolm X did not stand up and pose a challenge, why would then racism ever seize to exist? It would keep going until it has been challenged or do you not agree?
How can racism end if both sides are racist?
...Sigh, what I have said has no counter-argument because these are not personal opinions I am writing, these are basic facts about our current life-time, I think I am done here because you guys have failed to come up with any valid points the last few discussions. We are jumping all-over the place and I have had to re-educate a lot of people and I am not even being paid for it.
