When Ghandi was in South Africa he fought for the rights of Indians, to be classified as a better race then blacks, and coloureds. Because how dare his people be compared to savages.

While true for Gandhi's early life, by the time he left South Africa his views had changed dramatically and he advocated for full equality for all races.

That's the thing about Gandhi, he was able to learn and change his point of view over time. There isn't just one Gandhi for all time, forever.

The only Gandhi I care about is the one who's words are BACKED WITH NUCLEAR WEAPONS.
