      @Thriving-Threads Jamaica is NOT the tourism capital of the Caribbean. The Bahamas gets at least 3 million more tourists than Jamaica. Cuba and the Dominican Republic get even more.

    Everyone’s been trying to nick Haiti’s legacy, innit. Remember, cowards sing war chants, but the real ones get stuck in. Cowards ducked out when the war drums started, while the true fighters charged through the storm without a hint of fear! That’s the split between the two, fam. Haiti’s the one holding it down, and the rest of you lot are just playing at it. Long live the Haitian Revolution of 1804.

      Go make a video about Haiti and move your rassclaat. Anytime people say anything good about Jamaica, here come the haters.
      Nanny of the Maroons gained freedom and independence from Britain in 1738, long before Haiti was freed. Some are trying to diminish what Jamaicans have accomplished for themselves. What Haiti did in Haiti has nothing to do with anything that took place in Jamaica. 😂 Y'all speak French; we speak English. We have nothing in common.

    The draconian nature of Western colonialism has perpetuated anti-Haitian rhetoric rooted in baseless hatred and fear, both scientifically unproven and philosophically flawed. Haitian warriors, however, demonstrated to the West and beyond that Black people, or Africans, are unequivocally human, equal in every sense of humanity. At that time, Haitians issued a profound challenge to the Western world to put this into question, and it is the West that ultimately failed the test miserably. The continued existence of Haiti as a free Black sovereign republic, alongside the universal abolition of slavery, stands as irrefutable evidence of Haiti’s immense contribution to the freedoms the world enjoys today. These freedoms, though universally beneficial, were particularly advantageous to the white poor and lower classes during the colonial era. Haiti’s legacy extends far beyond its immediate borders. Yet, marginalized populations-including Black Americans, who selfishly, cowardly, and ignorantly side with their oppressors-turn their backs on their Black liberators: Haiti and its people. This betrayal is akin to Satan pitting humanity against Jesus Christ, a deep moral, ethical, and philosophical wrong that remains undeniable. The same logic applies to Haiti; the country stands for fundamental principles of humanity and equality, principles that many fail to recognize. Some critics, including whites and marginalized groups, point to Haiti’s practice of Voodoo as though it were inherently evil, without refuting the essential truth that it was white men who subjected these people to hell on earth through slavery. The Haitian slaves, in response, declared that they would choose freedom or death, rather than return to enslavement, because they understood that freedom and equality are basic human necessities. In contrast, it seems that other marginalized groups-Black Americans, Jamaicans, Dominicans, Bahamians, and Africans-have blindly accepted their fate under the West's false narrative that Haiti is selectively targeted out of racism and prejudice. This ignorance, selfishness, and cowardice from these groups only serves to hold back the broader marginalized populations. Returning to the colonial period, the white elite strategically employed religion, specifically Christianity and the Bible, as a powerful psychological tool to reinforce their tactics. They enlisted the Catholic Church to send priests to dissuaded the movements of enslaved Maroons. The reason Voodoo is not regarded as a legitimate religion like others is simple: it is African and Black in origin. This philosophical difference between Black and white, divinely ordained by the Creator, is not difficult to grasp. The Haitian slaves, however, were too clever to fall for the empty sympathies of certain priests, some of whom focused solely on securing their share of colonial wealth. The white elite already recognized that the Haitian slaves possessed a unique and indomitable warrior spirit, unmatched by any other marginalized group. Thus, when these elites and the priests asserted that slavery was a punishment from God, supposedly decreed by a deity who favoured white people, the Haitians refused to be deceived. They turned instead to their African ancestors, creating their own religion-Voodoo. This religion, if examined thoughtfully, is found to mirror many aspects of Christianity, albeit with the inclusion of Black people. Just as native populations have their own spiritual systems rooted in nativism, so too do Black people have their own: the misunderstood and maligned Voodoo, which the colonial powers derogatorily branded as ‘black magic.’ Ultimately, the marginalized populations-Black Americans, Jamaicans, Dominicans, Bahamians, and even Africans-have naively parroted the narratives their white oppressors fed them, abandoning the rich spiritual and philosophical traditions that connect them to their heritage. Long live the Haitian revolution of 1804, a date of humanity’s liberation.

      Do you really think Haitians are the only ones who fought for their freedom and liberation? Do you think Jamaica owes Haitians something? Both of our nations fought and won their independence. The only thing you all beaten us at is poverty, and that’s a fact. 😂
