Is it not a good quote then? Is there nothing to learn from Gandhi if every time he is brought up we have to bring up his opinions he held in his early twenties. Of course not everyone held them but most British educated lawyers in South Africa did. His racist opinion he held at one point in his life has nothing to do with his later quote nor does it have anything to do with the original thread at all speaking. You’re the one bringing a decontextualized quote that isn’t adding anything but to shit on Gandhi. Yes he isn’t perfect, we know that. But surely we don’t have to throw the baby out with the bathwater.
