sometimes i can't find sources for topics i'm interested in and could use your help. this thread therefore is basically made for me, but also hopefully in the future for anybody looking for information...at a price!

What I Need From You Today

I know that the NHS in Britain is funded from third world extraction - what I'm looking for are quotations from anyone involved in government in the time period acknowledging this as the basis for their foreign policy. Extra points for Attlee.

THANKS!

I think we had a conversation here a while back about SETI being a singal intelligence cutout but I can't remember where, I think it revolved around having an excuse to put dishes in Turkey and try snooping on Soviet space comms, asking for a friend

those sauces which say things like LIMITED EDITION EXTREME NAGA DEATH PASTE are pretty cool as an appetite suppressant, plus they taste sublime spread on toast

this isn't what you want op but i'm reading about third world extraction (torkils new book on $v€₫€₦ imperialism) and he quotes this bit from Aimé Césaire:

Yes, it would be worthwhile to study clinically, in detail, the steps taken by Hitler and Hitlerism and to reveal to the very distinguished, very humanistic, very Christian bourgeois of the twentieth century, that, without being aware of it, they have a Hitler inside them. That Hitler inhabits them, that Hitler is their demon - if they rail against him they are being inconsistent. At the bottom what he cannot forgive Hitler for is not crime in itself, the crime against man, it is not the humiliation of man as such, its the crime against the white man, the humiliation of the white man, and the fact the he applied to Europe colonialist procedures which until then had been reserved exclusively for the Arabs of Algeria, the coolies of India, and the niggers of Afrika.



it made me laugh, the thought that every white man has a little hitler inside him

discourse on colonialism is a hell of a polemic

I remember reading somewhere a quote along the lines of "sleep on a stone in a cave and eat gruel for 10 years and gather your forces" but I can't remember it exactly. I think it was quoted as something to do with the Chinese Cultural Revolution? But the actual quote maybe isn't from that time but from a much earlier Chinese writer? Maybe I'm entirely wrong and it's not from China at all. If anyone could help me find this quote and the source of it, I would be very grateful.

the quote might have said to eat slime rather than gruel, if that helps
