If you spend any time in Portugal, one thing youll learn is that they are very proud of their past. No self-reflection whatsoever.

And I said they even though Im one of them because I hate the culture of the country. Foreigners arent any depper, of course. They go "ohhh lisbon is so beautiful" and that's as far as they go.

Yup. There is no self awareness of how much we got from all our colonial history.

It is also wild seeing how people are reacting to the President talking about reparations.

They should be proud of their past. Every civilization in the world (including the ones they conquered) at the time would have done what the Portuguese did if they could. All from a tiny country of a few million people.

"Others were bullies, too" is not a valid reason to be proud for ever having been a bully.
