to end this lies and disscussion for ever

[Crabulonia]

Am I the only one who thought this was about the pie vs cake debate?

Is there no middle ground?

[Birnadia]

well its night over here i am off to bed nice debating with you liars my op crushed your dreams

Might I suggest you get a blog if you are not interested in genuinely debating folks.

The occupation of India is most worthy of discussion, but you'll get nowhere by simply shouting 'liar!'.

well some people here claim india was

tribal
backwards
poor
barbaric

that hurts me

Your out-of-date, stereotypical generalisations about the British hurt me. For the last time, I have nothing against Indians in general.

That's partly why they're saying it. Regardless of whether people believe India to have been the height of civilisation or not, you're a jerk, and insulting your heritage is very difficult to resist in the face of your prejudicial ranting.

yes it is we british are colonizers and we are ashamed and apoligize for that

[Tagmatium]

The fact is, although I agree with you on many points, I don't think I'd give you that satisfaction.

[Dimoniquid]

Fascinating post you have there, mon frère...

Un historique interessante, mon frere. (Pardon mon francais terribleux)

That's got little to do with the pie and cake or the ninjas and pirates.

Since it was Jedi999, no. When we saw it was Jedi999, we all realised it was a diatribe about how India was a flourishing, secular utopia before British invasion and about how the British ruined it by stealing all their wealth and turning all the previously harmonious religions against each other.

[Crabulonia]

well tell me do you liars remember who forced us to grow opium and who started that war

The Opium wars were with China, not India.

fool but which troops were used? where did you get the opium from ? who did you force to grow opium

There's probably no need to resort to name calling...

than answer my questions

We're not some sort of hive-mind. Again, I might point out that not all British people think the empire was a good thing.

The reason I won't is because I can't.

I don't know that much about Indian history, which is why I've not voiced my opinion on it. I don't wish to display my ignorance on that subject. I find Indian history pretty interesting, but there are other areas which I like more.

And I've said that the opium came from India, as that is something I know.

And actually address this this time, please.

well you admit the opium came from india at dirt cheap price and not from britain than good thats a start

Yet you do not even dare speak on my reply on this topic...

your reply wtf

Answer the statement in the italics.

I will reiterate:

Indian peoples were not forced to grow Opium, because they wanted to. It sold better then any other crop.

Tough it out, kiddo.

Labelling all British people as liars and supportive of colonisation is utter tripe.

[Johz]

Also, you said you were going to bed? We wouldn't want to be the ones keeping you up.

Have you ever considered that there may have been some British at the time who opposed it?

But no British person alive had anything to do with that.

Should we pay for the sins of our (great)grand fathers?

Because the people in British government in the 1700s thought it was a good idea! And I don't think there are any 18th-century government figures in Britain alive any more.

I'm British, and I haven't colonised anything.

Directing anger at all modern Brits because of past wrongs is nonsensical and a waste of energy.

there were but mainly communists ,anarchists ,socialist a.k.a minority

[Angleter]

heard about the bnp

YES! They're our fifth-largest nationwide party who got 6% of the vote in the European election, where people vote for minor parties far more! And even they don't believe in re-annexing India.

Maybe there's a lack of understanding here caused by poor translations of what we are saying (what you want us to say to prove your point) and what you are saying (which you feel eloquently explains your thoughts but confuses us because you miss out massive parts of your gigantic thought process)

Colonization happened many many years ago.

Modern Brits often do not give a fuck about the Empire.

Colonization was not something we took a public referendum on, it was decided by government and military.

Jedi 999 I think I love you.


You're truly hilarious.
