In hindsight were the British on to something with their 'Great Game' or was it just autism?
They were 100% right. Giving up colonialism was a mistake
>>18767572The empire barely held together and was getting overtaken by other states. Having more land doesn't negate the massive bureaucracy, inefficiency, graft, and staye capture going on. It actually makes it worse
>>18767575It oppresses brown people though so it’s worth it
>>18767572they went to war with their fellow European powers so they wouldnt overpower them.... only to destroy Europe and leave hegemony to those outside EuropeIE America, and soon to be China
>>18767575It held together during a world war. It broke up because the British public voted for Labour socialists.It is kind of disturbing how the left is retconning history as a struggle between BIPOCs and wypipo to the point of diminishing the efforts of old school working class white leftists. Redditors such as yourself hear this from your marxist sociology professor or whoever, then you just accept it as fact, even though it directly contradicts major events in history. Even if, like now, you realize it was bullshit, 99% of your fellows will never realize they have been lied to and happily spout the meme ad infinitum.
>>18767598Can there even be such a thing as a pro white leftist anymore? The modern socialist movement is so open about its goal of exterminating the white race. It’s hard for me to even picture what a pro white leftist movement could be in this day and age. Maybe an authoritarian communist state that explicitly marketed itself as a defender of collective European civilization and deported millions of shitskins. They could blame capitalism for nonwhite immigration.
