00:00Why did the Brits come to India?
00:01The way we want to tell it to our kids is,
00:04you know, they hated the brown men.
00:06So they came here to kick us around.
00:09They were inherently brutal and unjust.
00:11So they came here to insult us, violate us.
00:15They came to you just to take away your resources.
00:17That was the only objective.
00:18And when you could no longer provide them resources,
00:21they went back.
00:22That's it.
00:23That is a simple story.
00:24They never loved you.
00:26They never hated you either.
00:27You had resources, they wanted to consume those resources.
00:30Why does anybody want to consume resources?
00:32So that one can live in pleasure.
00:34That's all that they wanted.
00:35That's why they came here.
00:36That's what the entire process of colonialism is about.
00:40That's also what the world wars are about.
00:42Nothing more than that.
00:43So can you stop colonial tendencies or future world wars
00:48without self-knowledge?
00:49Not possible.
