Egotistical self-aggrandizement blatantly masquerading as humanitarian altruism!

 
By Stanley Collymore
 
Compliments are entirely wasted on the likes of you  
since you’ve neither any notion what compliments  
are nor what their real purpose is all about. Yet  
you sanctimoniously, hubristically and quite  
self-servingly continue to earnestly  
project and studiously promote  
your warped notion of altruism based not on the  
genuine needs of the individuals involved  
but rather your own subjective and  
fraudulent interpretation of what  
you think they should want,  
ought to have, and most  
crucially must unquestioningly accept if they’re  
to be considered worthy of your assistance  
to them in the first place. In other  
words, you’re the classic, fashionable do-gooder  
who’s always looking for a cause – its causal
circumstances or distance from where you  
actually are no problem whatsoever –  
to support, but with the overriding  
objective always unchangingly  
the same; your own completely  
typical, egotistically charged  
and emotionally uncaring
self-aggrandizement.

Observation:
The 21st century apart from the multiplicity of unnecessary and odiously contrived wars concomitant with the avaricious and brutally secured plunder of the Global South by the purportedly developed and laughably civilized west comprised mainly of consummately narcissistic and quite ferally-disposed white Caucasians of both genders and across every social stratum of society there, will additionally be condemnatorily remembered by future generations – of that I have no doubt – for its mindboggling hypocrisy and intentionally contrived sanctimony relative to what was self-servingly characterized as humanitarian matters.
 
And in that regard practically every western government, NGO, the plethora of so-called human rights organizations: Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch principally among their number, together with the vast majority of household familiar western charities, including almost all of them in the UK, fall deeply and undeniably into this cesspit of intentional deceit, culpable dishonesty, manifest disingenuousness and the ongoing profitable exploitation of both the victims they’re supposed to be helping and the gullible but good-natured members of the public who fall for their spiel.
 
This then is my personal and unreserved indictment of these undoubted and insidiously criminal charlatans: governmental as well as NGO, who’ve assiduously and industriously taken the term humanitarianism well beyond any credible interpretation of what that word actually means and genuinely represents.
