I wonder did normal english peasant dullards even know that the opium wars was over china not wanting it's people to take horribly debilitating drugs forced on them by britain. I choose to believe they did and they're just single digit IQ evil peasants.

I've read a bit about imperial attitudes among English lower classes and isn't too far off from what people espouse today, helping the world out and also helping you get a job hopefully (back then at the ship docks, today I don't know partying with Nigel Farage lol)

America being the concentration camp guard ======== American official: We communicate with the Iranians and our message to them is not to attack Israel US official for Al Jazeera: We communicate with the Iranians through secret channels, and our message to them is not to attack Israel. The U.S. Central Command commander's visit to Israel and the region was scheduled before the Damascus strike.

the British empire really does have the all-time most evil empire award and I doubt American hegemony is going to last long enough to surpass it. the lieutenant-governor of bengal in 1874, sir Richard Temple, arranged for the import of 500,000 tons of rice from Burma (also a British colony at the time) to feed Bengalis during a famine, and thereby avoided mass casualties. he did this because he wanted the laborers to stay in good health so when the rains returned they’d be able to resume production. he was SHARPLY criticized by the British government for interfering in the free market for food and told not to do it again. so when another famine struck madras in 1877, which he was in charge of at the time, he… implemented a starvation wage for laborers which caused millions of deaths.

You should read the justifications for the opium wars about free trade being the highest form of good. There's a book on the knots the Brits twisted themselves into called Liberal Barbarism.

the only genuinely surprising and interesting part of this is the fact that the beleif that israel is doing a genocide is equally distributed amongst all economic classes.

Research the Neoliberalism upgrade. All your resources are replaced with a number that always goes up but otherwise doesn’t do anything. At the end you get a fake victory screen.
