But when Americans with no self-awareness talk about how evil British imperialism was, it's a bit like listening to people whose livelihood is trading in stolen goods say how much they hate thieves. The entire foundation stone on which the weight of four centuries of American history rests is British imperialism: it's the primary fucking reason that Americans even exist. If anyone's still benefiting today from a legacy of colonial exploitation, it's Americans as much as (if not more than) the Windsors. Understand this: I'm not in the business of blaming today's Americans for their own country's past. But that's exactly the point: get this idea out of your heads that Liz, Phil or Charles are somehow to blame for everything that was done in the name of their ancestors two or three or four hundred years ago. Nobody's guilty of anything by fucking reincarnation. Let's stop wasting so much time and effort dumping the weight of dead people's sins on their great-great-great-great-great grandchildren, and instead try to fix the shit that we can actually do something about. --- ~.\|o <cite>Criminalt posted [p:953943703] in I cannot f...
