Alexa, look up "British empire genocide". Oh dear. It's unclear what you were searching for.

Did you mean...

Is it the 10 million the Brits killed in 1770 in India?

The 5 million in India, again, in the 1870's?

The thousands they killed in, you guessed it, India again in the 1920's by kettling and mass executing protestors?

The tens of thousands in Malaysia in the 1950's?

The "Boer War?"

IS IRELAND REAL? WHO COULD SAY!

Brits are the GOAT world champions at imperialist genocide. The US is trying their best, but its a hard record to top.

Anyway, england-cool

Sorry just trying to find the part of this thread where we were talking about the history of the UK... Oh no wait you're just doing the classic whataboutism that you guys enjoy, as if I'm going to start getting all defensive 👍. Nice try though.
