Plunder a country

Kidnap their people to make slaves

Impose anti-gay laws on them

200 years later: They are expanding the anti-gay laws! Why are they so backward?!

Pay reparations or shut up.

My original comment was poorly worded. Ghana gained independence 69 years ago, not 200.

The kidnapping and exploitation was in full swing 200 years ago, but it started earlier than that and ended way later, if ever.
