I'm not picking a fight.
Merely asking questions or for his thoughts.
Without other races it would only be blacks.
The rest of what you said, I completely agree.
I think that (being stuck in a rut fighting each other) comes down to one quote:
In a nutshell, a short period of war (in Italy) begat great innovation in science and art. Switzerland, a peaceful country, came up with the Cuckoo clock in a 500 year period.
Relating this to now, Europeans had to innovate through wars, as did the USA, and we had a lot of bloodshed on the way. See the aboriginals - they weren't advanced, but they weren't killing each other at anything like the pace we were. Give anyone enough time and they will figure a way to fuck you over, they just have to know you are there to fuck with. Aboriginals didn't expect it, Europeans lived it. We all do now.
