Oh, in what way was Elrom racist? (he's not anti-asian or anti-semitic, for instance) [snip]
Chris Owen has written an essay about Hubbard's support of the racist South African govt.
Along with Israel, Reaganites, etc. Racism? Just capitali$m in it's international arena.
Just skimmed through it. Black scientologists should read it. More than ever, it points out how Elron sought corrupt officials, to make deals with, subsequently praising them for their venality. South Africa never was racist, but just cared about diamonds and gold. Cheap labor from apartheid, akin to cheap labor from immigration.
He quotes Hubbard as writing:
"Just as individuals can be seen by observing nations, so we see the African tribesman, with his complete contempt for truth and his emphasis on brutality and savagery for others but not himself, is a no-civilization."
TRIBESMAN. No doubt he would have a favorable opinion of Idi Amin, Mugabe(sp), and any other rich black, as long as they are willing to part with some of their money.
