  1. Gladstone's funny, with the quote: "They are not the mild Mohammedans of India, nor the chivalrous Saladins of Syria, nor the cultured Moors of Spain. They were, upon the whole, from the black day when they first entered Europe, the one great anti-human specimen of humanity" Just a few years later, Gladstone would bear some responsibility for the death of 100 million Indians between 1880 and 1920 though colonial policies, since he was PM from 1880-1885 in his second stint. Britain had a hand in causing the famines in part by taxing Indians, and then using the revenue to buy their goods, essentially getting free goods (agricultural and otherwise) Oh, and a bit of slavery: "In 1834, when slavery was abolished across the British Empire, the owners were paid full value for the slaves. Gladstone helped his father obtain £106,769 (equivalent to £10,920,000 in 2021) in official reimbursement by the government for the 2,508 slaves he owned across nine plantations in the Caribbean.[25]" Just a sanctimonious guy; pretty common for western statesmen

  2.  @arandeepsingh6419  You're asking if "anti-human" is unfair? Is this a serious question? Ironically, you have an Indian name. No love for your deceased countrymen?
