  Fun fact, the British Empire only sent criminals to Australia because the American Revolution stopped them from sending them to North American colonies.

    The British Empire is responsible for ongoing crimes that dwarf anything that any individual has ever done.

    Spoiler alert…

    The criminals made it here to US

      I’m sure UK primarily exported the religious nut jubs to the US and the crims to the antipodes.

      Not saying there isn’t overlap between the two groups though…

  Don’t forget the people who went there because their home country didn’t allow them to religiously persecute others anymore.

      It’s only true of every “country” because the global system of statehood was violently imposed by the genocidal.

      For example, the actual culprit is not like the DRC but the scumbags who’s been attacking the DRC for centuries.

      What the US did to the indigenous population was uniquely horrible. And while it may have echoes in other places throughout history, it was certainly not normal, average, or mundane.

    Damn, that was supposed to have been edited out in the history books.

      It’s interesting because i’m thinking of the “Norman Conquest” but you can fairly reasonably apply it to e.g the foudnation of the union (~1707) when England + Scotland became Britain, or the Roman distinction of Britannia as 1 or 2 defined provinces.

      Possibly true also of angles and saxons, possibly true of celtic migration, possibly true of the pre-celtic migration…

      That’s life

    To be fair that is pretty much every country when you look back in history. Not trying to let the UK off the hook here though.
