    WW2. War started for Britain on this day.

    I actually agree with you that we need to do a better job of teaching our history objectively. I would say the US is the same. By objectively too I think we also need to include the positives (which doesn’t make it right). I think the issue is with your comparison of the British empire to the...

    WW2. War started for Britain on this day.

    You asked for some sources to back up that biological warfare was deliberately used. Those to me are pretty compelling evidence that it was, by British military officers. Now you’re asking for proof that it was state sanctioned lol. I’m not really sure what that would even look like but let’s...

    One thing that is interesting though is that the willingness to acknowledge colonial past is very different in the US and Australia. Every meeting with more than about 10/15 people in that we have here in Australia starts with an acknowledgment of country, and paying respects to traditional...

    Which to be fair, there is an argument and evidence that there was deliberate introduction of diseases like smallpox to speed this up I agree with most of what @shmmeee has said though. While it is important to recognise the negative impacts of colonisation and empire it does annoy me that...

    Good game for the neutrals I guess but absolutely shocking quality on both sides. Neither Eccles or Ayari can play that role so we have a big problem. Wright looks great, and van ewijk too, only positives. Sheaf had a good game does all the dirty work
