- For the intersectional activists, the US is the world's biggest oppressor -- not China, North Korea, Saudi Arabia, or Iran.
- "What the media do not tell you is that America is the best place on the planet to be black, female, gay, trans or what have you. We have our problems and we need to address those. But our society and our systems are far from racist". โ Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Twitter, June 9, 2020.
- "The new anti-racism is racism disguised as humanism (...) It implies that every white person is bad... and that every black person is a victim". โ Abnousse Shalmani, born in Tehran, now living in Paris, to Le Figaro, June 12, 2020.
- "America looks different if you grew up, as I did, in Africa and the Middle East". โ Ayaan Hirsi Ali, The Wall Street Journal, June 26, 2020.
- It is high time for the United States to stop funding the United Nations.... The United Nations is now being used to perpetuate injustice, not stop it.

Today slavery still exists in many parts of Africa and Middle East, but the self-flagellating Western public is obsessively focused only on the Western past of African slavery rather than on real, ongoing slavery, which is alive and well -- and ignored. For today's slaves, there are no demonstrations in the streets, no international political pressure, and virtually no articles in the media.
Comment: And that's for at least two reasons: 1) many of the purveyors of this self-flagellation are not actually concerned about slavery (past or present) and are cynically using it as a means of gaining power over others, 2) many believers are too ignorant to know otherwise (influenced by the purveyors of the ideology).
