    Dawg, there are only 22 nations on this Gods green earth that the British Empire have not invaded or razed. Not to mention that it was industrialized streamlined genocide, slavery, colonialism, and subjugation.

    You are by far the worst.

          Why would you think I’m defending it? I’m literally admitting we did exactly that? Where the hell am I defending it?

            Its a common talking point that “Everyone else did it, so it’s fine we did it to”.

              But that’s not what I said AT ALL I acknowledged we did it a shit load, listed examples and noted that it was a common thing… Because it was.

              I offered no defense, because I don’t need one, and I offer no apology either, and this is history anyone can fact check… I am not upset about any of it and I don’t feel I have to “defend” anything. Yes we did that, a whole bunch, so much so that a lot of the world speaks our language… Fuck me the Internet is bizzare now, have I blown all of your minds so much by agreeing?
