The Colonizer and The Colonized

I've been reading and watching things on how some Western people are annoyed (for the lack of a better word) on how the rise of people immigrating into their country are changing their lifestyles, culture and what not.

Well, let's go back a few hundred years ago. Let me remind You that there once was such a thing called the Colonial Era where You went out to sea, along with your civilized neighbours and started to compete with each others, colonizing lands as You go by.

Oh, have You forgot how many cultures You've changed, modified and destroyed? How many local governments You've messed with in order to civilize them? How many natural resources You've took to fuel your factories? Maybe You've forgotten all that.

So here i am reminding You. Yes, You might have already left those lands but whatever You did there remains. Remember, that there is such a thing called Karma. Did You think that the Karma Police are going to let You get away with what You did?

Next time before You bitch about the 'others' in your land, think.
