I mean... I put "tired historian" in my bio. One day people will learn not to come for me if they do not want to get a faceful of receipts, but today is not that day.

A few others I didn't get around to in my last post:

The brutal British treatment of Cyprus in the 1950s and how they generally fanned ethnic tensions to control and divide the island;

The absolutely horrifying role the Anglican church (during her reign, until the 1990s!) played in the Canadian Indigenous residential school system, forcing the Archbishop of Canterbury to personally apologize (not until earlier this year when they found all those skeletons buried in unmarked graves);

HOLY SHIT THE BRITISH LITERALLY DESTROYED THE ENTIRE COUNTRY OF KENYA'S HISTORY IN PHYSICAL/LITERAL/ARCHIVAL WAYS (related to my mention of concentration camps in the last post) in order to cover up their own crimes, in something called "Operation Legacy"; literally there are so many sources for this and even today historians are often blocked from investigating what really happened (again, this was all happening DURING THE QUEEN'S REIGN, not in some imagined benighted past)

QE2's own extensive lobbying efforts to keep her personal net worth secret and to hide Prince Philip's will for 90 years, while running the $28 billion imperial money machine of "The Firm"

(We all remember what a racist goblin Philip was, right?)

Likewise, Buckingham Palace, for a long time, banned LGBTQ and "visible" ethnic minorities from working there, even in office jobs, and the queen personally exempted herself from compliance with civil rights/sexual/racial discrimination laws;

And the Diana thing, which I'm not going to link to because we all know what happened, but the Queen was always known to act in ways that would preserve the monarchy "at all costs"

(But sure. Respect.)

I love how he's absolutely unapologetic about all of this

The "If you were over 6 feet tall and living in Wellington in 2001 you didn't have a choice my dude" is killing me, like I'm just picturing the LOTR casting directors running around Wellington with a measuring tape, black-bagging tall guys and shoving them into vans.

"You're a Lord of the Rings extra now."

"No! Please! I have a family! I'm supposed to work the closing shift at the Pita Pit tonight!"

"You serve at the pleasure of the Steward of Gondor now."

OFMD is like such a gay person fantasy like you spend your whole life as some silly little guy who gets mocked at every turn for everything you love and then all of a sudden this really hot person shows up like “YOOO, this shits cool as hell!!” and also they’re madly in love with you.

the THING about Oluwande is that his competence level is "night manager who has worked in this 24 hour McDonalds for 4 years and knows all possible McDonalds scenarios but outside work his life is not even a little bit together" and the thing about Jim is that their competence is "wildly experienced mechanic who can fix literally anything in the 24 hour McDonalds with a wrench and some duct tape but can't figure out how to heat up a burger without burning it" and the rest of the crew is "has been working in the 24 hour McDonalds for a maximum of two weeks, and doesn't know how to do anything". except Buttons, who is "has worked in this specific 24 hour McDonalds for 15 years, but still causes regular incidents any time he is at the cash register".
