Don't try and give me history classes about my country because you will end up losing.
First of all, slavery in DR wasn't as brutal, the french and the english were way more cruel to their slaves than the spanish, also the colony of Santo Domingo was very very very poor, to the point where white spanish masters were living in the same conditions as their black slaves.
Spain basically abandoned Santo Domingo, which is why José Núñez de Cáceres led an independant movement to expel the spanish crown out of the country, he called it "Spanish Haiti", but that only lasted a couple of months before Jean Pierre Boyer invaded "Spanish Haiti" (actual Dominican Republic) with his black supremacy ideology, and started slaughtering every dominican that did not have STRONG AFRICAN FEATURES.
It was a brutal and degrading regime, where haitians robbed, raped and killed many dominicans barbarically just because the mulatto dominican population reminded them of their french masters. They closed the only dominican university, broke relations with the catholic church and prohibited the spanish language. That is without mentioning the strong taxation that was imposed on the dominican population to help Haiti pay its compensation to France. It was fukked up. So don't talk to me about being thankful, Haiti should be thankful to us, because all we have done is help that God forsaken country.
Haitians are horrible backstabbing people who are not worth helping. The type of people that would chop the hand that feeds them with an electric chainsaw if they could.
