133. Who said it isn't deadly
That's what the article is about. No one is saying the practice is "good" (I have actually said the opposite). However, I similarly see no "good" in an ignorant attempt to undo a cultural practice.

The bottom line is that I value cultures. I cannot say the same for those who would revert to colonialism.

I do find it interesting that a person from the same culture which caused millions upon millions upon millions of deaths would claim superiority in such a manner.
