That’s what happens when you’re the biggest colonizer the world had ever seen.

The British might have done genocide the most the good ol’ fashioned way, but I really think at least in per-capita terms the US will be recognized in future history books as the worst. They mastered the art of genocide to the point that we don’t even think of them as responsible for all the deaths they cause.
Do we MLs even call what happened in Iraq a genocide? I mean, millions of civilians died at the hands of the US. Not only places we directly invade but what about everywhere we strangle economically, where we install fascist dictators, at that point I feel like the death and destruction outweighs the Brits by a magnitude.
The British imperialists bowed out and chose to live in their “garden” peacefully while the Americans inherited their death machine and revolutionized it with Nazi inspiration. We modernized it and mastered the craft of being so purely evil and yet in such a way that most people wouldn’t associate the US with genocide save perhaps that of the Native Americans (arguably another British genocide as well).

The difference between US atrocities and every other country on Earth is that we never call them genocides, we never let anyone call them genocides. The War in Iraq was simply a war…where millions of innocent people were killed or tortured.
Who knows how many people died on india durin colonial rule. They were particularly brutal over there.

The iran one is ww1 and 2. The british invaded iran and cofiscated grain. In the 19th century irans population was equivalent to the otoman empire. That is turkey +iraq +the levant +some of the balkans. Now iys about half. Similar to what hapoen to irland (the ratio of its populayion to nearby countries halved). So somewhete between 6 and 13 million people died(half of iranians). But because there is less data i jave argued with genocide denialists even on hexbear.

Maybe they are talking about the Highland Clearance?
Forced migration counts as a crime against humanity, which I guess covers enclosure and the Highland clearances. I’m not sure if that’s genocide though. Maybe cultural genocide against Scots and Gaelic and so on? I don’t think the Harrying of the North went into Scotland, but that was definitely genocide.
India: Bengal Famine was orchestrated by Britain knowing the consequences would be mass death, there is a good argument that this was therefore genocide. Not historical consensus but very much possibly so.
Well since the EU and US are now firm on the Holodomor being a genocide, by that same definition (that plays very fast and loose with genocidal intent) most Indian famines and the Irish potato famine are almost certainly genocides.

Its children are worse (US, Canada, Australia)
Yeah they like doing that
Wow the British sure are being genocided in a lot of countries.
Every country on earth should get a turn doing to Britain what Britain did to them.
I’m sure the British Empire apologists will have no problem with that since colonialism was good, actually.

This is literally genocide
Forgot about concentration camps in South Africa
Those were for Boer, no?
Yeah those were the ones most talked about in modern history. But they also built plenty of camps for black Africans as well.
