Ahem. This is about to get caps-lock-y.

WHY IN THE BLUE FUCK IS ANY FUCKING AMERICAN CONCERNED ABOUT PEOPLE THINKING THE BRITISH EMPIRE SUCKED?

THE BRITISH EMPIRE SUCKED, AND IT SUCKED MORE FOR PEOPLE AND INDIA AND AFRICA, WHO IT LANDED ON, THAN OUR ANCESTORS WHO WERE COLONIZERS WHOSE OCCUPANCY OF A NEW CONTINENT WAS HEAVILY SUBSIDIZED.

The British occupation of Kenya was like what happened in the America West, but with concentration camps, deliberate use of rape and sexual assault as punitive measures, and continued post-WW2. Who the fuck wouldn’t take issue with it?
