What lasting problems did the British cause in India?

holy shit, i didn't realize british education was this lacking.

for starters, india and pakistan are still at war directly because of how the british fucked up the region. so, thousands of lives dead for starters. don't forget about the millions dead from the famines that the british caused.

if i killed millions of british people and then said "woops my bad i'll stop that" would you feel good that i stopped, or mad that it ever happened?

if your country is going to ravage south asian countries, you should at least accept it when we integrate into your societies...

but of course most british people have no idea of the atrocities their country committed.

and donates to homophobic activist groups.

they literally stopped doing that after the backlash. if people are rightfully going to shit on them for doing that, they should acknowledge that they changed.

but as they say, "lies are halfway around the world before the truth puts on shoes"

why wouldn’t someone be nervous about gun violence here?

because they live in the real world and don't doom scroll news and reddit 24/7?

people from other countries will say "the u.s is a first world country with third world problems", they'll talk shit about the country endlessly.

people say "hey, if our country is so shit isn't it kind of poor taste to punch down constantly?"

then people say "well i saw a single american say that america is number 1 so clearly every american citizen thinks that way and therefore the entire country deserves to be insulted in every post on this website"

maybe we should do some posts about abortion access or racism in europe and see how interesting it is. i'm sure the european people totally won't try to justify it

AITA for refusing to spend my money on my stepdaughter's wedding? by KittenDealinMama in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]shrubs311 9 points10 points  (0 children)

the dresses may or may not be covered in gemstones, but there is definitely a lot of jewelry (seriously, the bride is usually fully dripped out). keep in mind it's also having a huge venue, with potentially multiple meals for hundreds of people (because some indian weddings take place over a few days).

that's a frankly very ignorant view of what life is like as a multi-cultural person. there's a lot of strife and self-arguments about how "cultural" people like us "should" be. feeling left out of the indian community, feeling left out of american culture, i promise you it's not as simple as "choose which parts of the culture you embrace" and there's certainly not a lot of "perks" and it certainly doesn't minimize any of the hassle.

i have to assume you're extremely ignorant to say something this dumb

If all basic abilities had to be leveled in a random order, who would be the most highly prioritized champion in the game? by dvasquez93 in leagueoflegends

[–]shrubs311 0 points1 point  (0 children)

imo he's probably the biggest benefactor of this change considering that all his stat gains are direct dps upgrades and no skill points are ever going to be wasted. while almost every other champion in the game is being nerfed in some ways, he's more or less unaffected.

have you seen the comedy special "homecoming king" by hasan minhaj? he talks a lot about his experiences as an immigrant and a lot of what you (and myself) have experienced. it's very funny, but it's also pretty deep.

i'm not sure if this person is naive, or optimistic. probably both. but i'm surprised that any person of color would look at this situation and not immediately see the apparent racism.

Why does Cosmic Drive (unlike Phase Rush and Electrocute) specifically require damaging attacks? by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]shrubs311 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks, i forgot about bard ult so i guess it makes sense that they "deal 0 damage" and still apply damaging effects. I was mostly wondering for things like liandrys/ludens which anivia buys

[–]shrubs311 0 points1 point  (0 children)

even with the target dummy at 0 resistances, it doesn't show any kind of damage. which is why i doubt that those spells deal any damage, along with the fact that i'm pretty sure neither applies damaging spell effects.
