Too many bots on both sides.
Are there still people who expect a genuine conversation between humans on reddit?
Churchill had a negative view of all kinds of people. He is quoted as saying I am in favor of using poisonous gases against uncivilised tribes or I do not admit … for instance, that a great wrong has been done to the Red Indians of America or the black people of Australia..
As for Bengal famine, when the then Viceroy of India asked Churchill about this, IIRC, he replied that if the famine was so bad, why wasn’t Gandhi dead yet?
Many defend Churchill as a person of his time but that is contextually untrue. The Vice President of US, Wallace under Roosevelt found Churchill’s views very condemning when the later started boasting about English superiority to him as well.
Because most people only know Winston for his actions in leading the British to defeat the Nazis, they don’t read his opinions on the Irish or brown people.
On the topic of Churchill and the Irish Revolt, where are you getting your information from?
What’s the context for this?
I’m asking where they get their understanding of the historical events
What did the person say on these topics and how it is “off/wrong”
I didn’t say it was. I’m trying to get their perspective. Stop putting words in my mouth
Alright where are you getting your information from then?
Is there a screenshot missing? I don’t see anyone defending Churchill here
They might have meant the “Genocide (definitely not guilty)” part?
White normies hate these bad facts about their dear “nazi slayer” 🤡
He ordered bangalis straved in case war in Europe turned south, it was a “strategic” decision.
Sucks to suck being a colony
