The statue, outside the Brussels stock exchange, had just been restored at great cost.

    If you think ‘a bit of my statue broke’ is even a rounding error compared to their legacy in the Congo, I suggest you go look into it and let me know once you’ve done the research if you think I’m wrong. I’m open to hearing your counter-argument, but from my view the two do not compare.

      Yeah, no I won’t let you drag me into “you are trying to compare the two”. That’s actually you who is trying to bring in a broken statue piece as some weird type of karma for crimes.

      Following your logic, where do you put an end to how much other people should be allowed to destroy in Belgium before their legacy is revenged? Or do you just think we all should smile smugly whenever something bad happens in Belgium because “they deserve it”? What good can possibly result from this mindset? I would even go further and say by doing this you can create a false comfort zone where people can just suffer through their punishment and then their payment is done.
