      My dude, I grew up in bumfuck Eastern Europe. Our textbooks and history classes that were so shitty that we spent like 4 lessons in total on WWII and the Cold War in total (with a cutoff date of like 1980), had a whole chapter on the incredible cruelty the British Empire had towards the people of India. Pictures of people blown from guns, descriptions of the famines, Gandhi and all that stuff.

      There was practically more time spent on it than the Holocaust.

      I understand why you’re saying what you’re saying though, and I’d just like you to know, many people didn’t forget.
