Joseph Conrad wrote favorably of colonialism?!

Have you read Heart of Darkness?

Well, he said the British were not as bad as the Belgians, I guess... so he must be censored? It's all become satire piled on satire to the point I was entertaining the notion that this story was some kind of early April Fool's edition or something like that.

Thank God. Saying Conrad wrote favorably about Colonialism is so completely wrong and crazy some would say. Heart of Darkness was one of the most anti-colonial books of the 19th century.
