    Considering the US is actively trying to reframe their atrocities as positives or flat out trying to write them out of history, probably not the best take

      Why is it a bad take? Nobody here is defending America over England. They’re both monsters, they’re both of the same cloth.

        Assuming a us viewpoint, it’s akin to a serial killer telling a petty thief how despicable they are for stealing.

        Not a perfect metaphor with England’s past but considering they’re actively trying to educate on and make up for the atrocities they’ve committed, it serves to illustrate the point.
