Unclear whether the OP is deifying Amin-style ethnic nationalism, demonizing ethnic Indians, or both at once.

Any of these options will garner beaucoup upvotes.

Evidently so.

The hybrid of Hitler and Stalin seems to have captured someone's attention.

We're not Uganda. This was a stupid thing for them to do. This is not a stupid thing for us to do.

I mean Indians were the smartest people in Uganda, the Jews of Uganda... the Boers of Zimbabwe.

Are you implying that Trump kicking out good for nothings with no education, or morality is similar?

Most countries dont let deadbeat people come over and absorbe the welfare of their state.

Some parts of Europe are trying to get rid of these refuse to work people as well.

People pretend Mexicans are the illegal problem.

They aren't.

Are you saying its better to live as a second class citizen in your own land, getting ordered around by foreign peoples who despise you as long as the economy is better off?

Those Africans didnt want a foreign people running the show in their own land. Go and be prosperous in India with your fellow Hindus.

That was clearly more important to ugandans than the economy. What's wrong with that if thats their priority?

The Ugandan economy was rather shite both before and after the Indians got kicked out. The difference is they are in charge of their own land. If they want to run it into the ground themselves, then its their right to do so, not those hindus

More than a quarter of those who were expelled were Ugandan citizens, and the vast majority were descended from people who had been living in Uganda for generations. Remember, Uganda (as a country) had existed for less than 10 years at the time this happened. Prior to that, it had been a British colony, and essentially every one of those deported individuals had been a British subject.

Deportees were limited to $120 and 485 pounds of property. In total, almost 5700 businesses, ranches, and farms were confiscated, along with cars, homes and household goods.

Pure theft.

I'm not sure about that, but this board wants Trump to be Pinochet.

I mean he was an unelected dictator...

Don't pretend Ugandans made that call. They had no say in it, if they complained he would have killed them,

The people Trump wants to remove are not 90% of the taxbase unlike Indians in Uganda.

The people Trump wants to remove aren't even legally here, unlike in Uganda where they were citizens, in many cases born there.

It was quite simply a raid of the rich, no more than the Boers getting raided by Zimbabwe.

The real value of salaries and wages dropped by 90% in less than a decade following the expulsion.

Idi Amin was a wack job who idolized Hitler. Rather odd choice for a revisionist history campaign.
