You been reading A Peoples' History of the United States? That's a a famous quote, but I remember first reading it in that book and it always stuck with me howThey ... brought us parrots and balls of cotton and spears and many other things, which they exchanged for the glass beads and hawks' bells. They willingly traded everything they owned... . They were well-built, with good bodies and handsome features.... They do not bear arms, and do not know them, for I showed them a sword, they took it by the edge and cut themselves out of ignorance. They have no iron. Their spears are made of cane... . They would make fine servants.... With fifty men we could subjugate them all and make them do whatever we want.

My contention is that this is the white attitude when dealing with non-whites in general.

nah this isnt a white this is a colonial attitude. Many of the nations that currently practice blatant slavery (not including prison industrial complex or debting/usury) are run by brown people ( I would say most but that would be a fact and Im not 100% sure). Of course, you could attribute this to them having been enslaved or colonised the same way some attribute child whipping among blacks to slavery. Adopted behavior. Now, I say this, but its hard to stand by it because of team whites track record.They ... brought us parrots and balls of cotton and spears and many other things, which they exchanged for the glass beads and hawks' bells.
