As the resistance swelled, Churchill announced: “I hate Indians. They are a beastly people with a beastly
religion.” This hatred killed. To give just one, major, example, in 1943
a famine broke out in Bengal, caused – as the Nobel Prize-winning
economist Amartya Sen has proved – by the imperial policies of the
British. Up to 3 million people starved to death while British officials
begged Churchill to direct food supplies to the region. He bluntly
refused. He raged that it was their own fault for “breeding like
rabbits”. At other times, he said the plague was “merrily” culling the
population. Skeletal, half-dead people were streaming into the cities and dying on
the streets, but Churchill – to the astonishment of his staff – had only
jeers for them. “If food is so scarce, why hasn’t Gandhi died yet?”
That’s why I don’t fuck with the British and their sympathisers in the US. They still haven’t apologised for what they’ve done. The British, of all the colonial powers, should be tried in the international courts and be punished for what they did to so many people. Y’all can glorify them, their queen or their “culture”. But know this – their ancestors killed people and lived off of their dead bodies like vultures. Know this – the present generation is taught about colonialism in such a way where it is glorified. Know this – while you all were talking about Brexit, Indians had already been started getting kicked out from the UK in early 2010s. Know this – if the British paid for all that they looted and stole from us, and the industries you destroyed, you would be the poorest country on the planet.
And that would be your own doing, something you deserve.
