I’m done with allowing people to insult my ancestors like this. No other group of people on Earth would allow their forebears to be insulted like this. 🇬🇧 My ancestors were the first people in history to fight to end slavery. 🇬🇧 They spread the common law across the world. 🇬🇧 They stopped Indians from burning widows alive so that they wouldn’t have to pay to feed them after their husbands had died. 🇬🇧 They stood alone against the Nazis. 🇬🇧 They invented and built the modern world with technology and medicine that started to defeat death and disease. 🇬🇧 They invented economics and democracy as we know it. My ancestors were great people. Without them, the world would be an immeasurably darker, more wicked place. Never again let entitled actors who known nothing about anything browbeat you into feeling shame for your ancestors. Britain, and Western civilisation, are the greatest expressions of human flourishing in the history of the world. Be proud of the ancestors who fought and toiled and sacrificed for that. Don’t ever be ashamed of the greatness of our inheritance. Live up to it.
