Without going into specifics, Britain ruled a large part of the globe by 1920.
It didn’t get there by politely asking permission.
Neither did it keep by asking permission!
Even it’s great and revered hero’s, had a nasty side.
You should have been taught all this in school ...... did they just provide the suitably redacted version of the true events?
But you can get around all that today, by using google.
Here’s just one small slice .......
The crimes of Winston Churchill
Churchill was a genocidal maniac. He is fawned over in Britain and held up as a hero of the nation — voted ‘Greatest Briton’ of all time…medium.com
i don't deny that.... but that was over a century ago....at the time imperialism was the deemed way to go.....much as globilisation is now....i have no doubt that if humanity lasts 100 more years it'll view globalisation then as we view imperialism now
i'd also argue that we can't accept china committing her crimes just because we're guilty of some of them in the past because otherwise we've learnt nothing
