Is It Offensive to Quote Churchill? | Good Morning Britain

[@debanjanrakshit8121]

Britain did not win the war , it's the Soviets who won. Britain just took a lot of punches like a punching bag from Hitler , and Hitler lost interest in that tiny island , and that just saved Britain.

[@mikereed8181]

Really that's why Hitler didn't have any boots in Britain but had boots in Soviet but that was Hitlers mistake my dad would of called you a liar Britain was fighting on so many fronts

[@braverbird60]

To say that Britain was insignificant is quite a bad statement. You do have to realise that as most of the continent was pretty much under Axis occupation, you had this bastion of Allied resistance separated only by a small stretch of sea, yet it was an Allied fortress. The Soviets were definitely fighting the Germans very seriously and in great numbers, though on a different front. Britain did contribute a lot to the war, even if not as much as the USSR. But it is important to note that post-WW2, Britain was slowly losing its position as a global superpower, and was succeeded by the USA and USSR. You could even say that the Germans partially achieved what they wanted Britain to be, as Britain suffered a lot after WW2 dealing with damages, financial collapse and the loss of it’s dominance. But I must say Britain was not a mere punching bag, it was a puncher.

I am a Pakistani-Canadian. and I believe Churchill was a hero for Great Britain. He was the ideal leader for the nation at his time. War was looming upon Europe and his strategic leadership and intelligence helped defeat the Nazis. Albert Einstein also had opinions of the ethnic races that would be considered 'racist' today, but regardless of your 'feelings' there is no doubt, that Einstein too, was a great mind in science and physics. The English have created a civilisation that is an inspiration to the world and they set standards for the third world and developing nations to follow, whether you admit it or not, the scientific and political leaders of western nations helped achieve the advanced civilisations we see today, therefore they should be deemed heroes. All the other countries on earth are either communist, caste-based, tribalistic or politically/intellectually/morally corrupt in comparison to the western civilisation (created by the Brits). This is why the western civilisation is the preferred choice for immigration by ethnic minorities. Despite the wars and colonialism, the western nations are have proved to be superior to other countries because they value knowledge, nature and justice. They do a better job in treating their citizens with humanity and living peacefully and their justice system is more transparent. Other nations do not have the same level of transparency or humility and tend to have wide gaps between the rich and poor due to their casteism, class-isms and egotistic tribal cultures.

A scholarly study found that British colonialism resulted in approximately 165 million deaths in India from 1880 to 1920 while stealing at least $45 trillion in wealth from the country. Tens of millions more Indians died in human-made famines that were caused by the British Empire. The impact of British colonial policies during this period was devastating, with excess deaths far surpassing those caused by famines in the Soviet Union, Maoist China, and North Korea combined. This tragic chapter in history underscores the immense human cost of empire-building and exploitation.

[@corsola9907]

Issue with the reparations arguement is that it wouldn't help anyone, and if anything would make the entire world worse. How much money should be given to be "fair" to both sides? The side asking for reparations would just keep pushing for more and more to bleed countries like Britain dry. They also would most likely become dependent on Britain to prop up their country with funding. A good portion of the "reparations" would most likely be syphoned off into politians' bank accounts and not be used to actually help. Being dependent on countries like Britain to fund a country would be little different to the dependence they had while they were a colony which I would think is a step backwards from bringing the world to be better.

3 against 1. The facts are that the 1 won the argument here, quite comprehensively.

Saying that Churchill was an extreme racist who cost millions of lives needlessly is factually correct. He also didn't win any war for Britain.
