As Konstantine mentioned in passing, affluence and prosperity are indeed components of the countercultural movements that are plaguing our institutions of higher learning and every other corner of our Anglosphere at the moment. In the post-war period since 1945, the industrialized world has experienced an economic boom the likes of which are unprecedented in human history. I believe that most of us who were born into this age of abundance and convenience were, like most generations before, genetically preordained to a life of struggle for survival, but instead we were treated to a steady diet of pop tarts and foppish televised cartoons. In short, we were pacified and pampered by an effortless environment of ease and comfort. We were spoiled rotten. Yet, weren't we genetically predisposed to struggle and fight for survival? Our media heroes were fed to us as characters who fought against heavy odds for a moral cause. Superman's motto was to ...."fight for right, and the American way". We grew up coddled and acculturated to a mostly peaceful and prosperous existence, but it was in our genes to fight for a moral cause against evil forces. We needed a cause. Today, the fertile minds of kids are planted by their teachers, their surrogate parents, with the seeds of invented causes to fight and struggle against: institutional racism, global warming, rampant male heirarchy, systemic sexism, gender dysphoria, global warming, Israeli war mongering, transgender discrimination, homophobia, and so on. These arguably nonexistent or over-hyped causes, are just what the doctor ordered to fulfill the pampered generations' primordial need for struggle. We've created in our kids a "Promethius Syndrome". That's what we're seeing unleashed in the affluent societies of our post-war world. Without a real existential threat to our survival, like a war, we will continue to see these frivolous countercultural movements explode on our campuses and in our streets. This is why it is so important to listen to Rafe when he advocates the proper teaching of accurate and balanced history as an antidote to postmodern wokeism. 👍🐻🇺🇲🇬🇧

We Yanks fought a bloody war to gain independence from the British Empire, but we kept all the best institutions of Britain, improved on some, and "ran them ourselves". Two and a half centuries later, there are no closer allies and friends than the US and the UK. The Brits think we're crazy in many respects and vice versa. But there's no greater love among nations than the one that binds our two slightly different but cohesive societies so tightly together. It's a shame that both of our distinct but complementary cultures are currently under assault from forces that seek to destroy the historical pillars of Anglo-Western Civilization that have contributed so much prosperity and human flourishing to the world. We both face the destructive forces of undiminishing illegal immigration which packs with it cultural and moral idioms that are proving antithetical to our own. In the US, in stark contrast with previous waves of legal immigration, mostly from Judeo-Christian Europe, this newer crop of immigrants has refused to assimilate into our societies and to adopt our unique political and cultural traditions as integrating new Brits or Americans. The US and UK are also both being emotionally hamstrung by the post-modernist revolutions raging through our institutions of education, commerce, and governance. We seem gob smacked by this intellectual invasion from both without and within, immobilized from reacting appropriately, very much like the proverbial deer which is suddenly caught in the headlights of an onrushing vehicle. It's a big problem, and as Rafe makes clear, it starts with the education of our future generations. Really scares the spit out of me!

The myth of a special relationship was born out of the UK's declining power, as Thatcher coined the term to hitch her nation onto the US. That's why she pushed hard to set up London as a financial hub for the Anglosphere, and then promoted Globalisation with Reagan. Her hope was this strategy would enable the UK to ride off the back of US manufacturing while grafting as much as they could through Financial services.

@@howlsatdesertmoon9840 Wrong again. The Romans adopted Greek Democracy and in fact the Roman Republic was a democracy. Its government consisted of the Senate and four assemblies: the Comitia Curiata, the Comitia Centuriata, the Concilium Plebis, and the Comitia Tributa. The ideas of democracy spread through Europe through this force. Roman law became the backbone of most European nations laws. Even British Common law was based on Roman law that the Normans brought to England in 1066.

As Rafe says, academia has always skewed left but now it’s overwhelmingly so and it’s affecting people’s ability to identify good or bad history. The UK’s young are being taught that their own country is the worst, most inhumane ex-Empire to ever exist and that any good there is contributed by slaves or migrants.

History is neither right or wrong. Actions taken may be deemed as right or wrong through a clouded lens of the viewer. The vilification of colonization has become an almost haute couture of sorts. The phenomenon can be illustrated by the example of a person complaining about the stink of the garbage truck going by while they are illegally dumping garbage in a vacant lot.

There are families in Cambodia and China whose lives were flipped upside down by communism. Aristocratic and middle class families, reduced to being peasant farmers, and that has had an immediate impact on the next generation who aren't able to seek any kind of compensation. I met a very smart, English speaking Chinese woman and I complimented her on how natural her accent was and asked about her background. Her mother had come from a wealthy family in Shanghai. During the Cultural Revolution she was sent to the countryside and there she stayed, eventually getting married. When she had her daughter, she encouraged her to work as hard as possible and she did. She studied under a blanket in a house with no heating and eventually got a place at a prestigious university. She didn't cry under her blanket and ask for money. It's embarrassing to see people, 8 generations removed from slavery, living in privileged conditions that 60% of the world can only dream of, demanding compensation. But they know this. They know it's nonsense and just want some money.

I was brought up in the 1960s. Education was a very different animal in those days. We were taught real subjects like history and geography, as well as the three R’s. Pride in our country was obvious in those days. We were still reeling from the war and times were hard. But here’s the thing. As a nation, we were happy and appreciative of everything we had. We knew how great we were, even as kids. About 51% of all great inventions came out of Great Britain. Our contribution to the world has been enormous. We would most probably still be living in the dark ages, if it wasn’t for our universities and the brilliant minds that came out of them. They are just a hot bed of woke snowflakes these days. We are finished.

Anyone who wants to understand the slave trade in Africa needs to visit Stone Town, in Zanzibar. Traditional African chiefs sold their strongest men and women to Arab slave traders. They sold their own people. If they had chosen not to do that, there would have been no slave trade. The Arab traders saw them as “kaffirs” - It was a dehumanising term for people not of their faith. These men and women were held in disgusting conditions, and were sold on by Arabs to whoever was prepared to pay for them. Nothing much has changed. Al Shabaab, in Northern Mozambique, is still to this day trafficking people. Nobody talks about this much.

Child psychology suggests that the synapse of the young mind is intact until the 3rd decade, ie 20 to 30. In this state the person will want to fit into a group. Hence the attraction of group think and the attachment to a cult. Past that age the synapse breakdown and individuality begins and so as Raife says, the western mind looks to network and share to develop wealth, in all forms not just money. So communist group cult appeals to the younger person. Aren't Universities dangerous

The Protestants did have a major role in America, which started in Europe. They started pushing these ideas of individual sovereignty with the understanding that we are made in the image of God and are all born with God-given rights. Equal value in the eyes of God. These ideas that every man should have access to the read the Bible as it was written was what created the will for the common people to want learn to read. They wanted to read the Bible. This unlocked the power of the people. Then, eventually, the common man could become a preacher, which was the first teachers. These ideas came pouring into America with the Irish Protestants and others from Europe, and their beliefs played a major role in America's founding. These ideas are directly written down in our founding documents. It all comes back to the Bible, and that's something that every citizen should be taught.

While there are always interpretations of history (unavoidable), the single-minded left wing, Chrono-egoism (our time is the best and everyone else sucks) we're seeing today is out of control. You can only judge the past by the standards of the past. As soon as you get angry at them for not thinking like you do, ask yourself how you'll be judged in a couple of hundred years, and whether that would be fair. What things you fervently believe might be proven utter garbage in 200 years, leaving you labelled an idiot. Don't like that? Then stop doing it to the people who came before you. We all do the best that we can with the knowledge we have at the time. The British were unusually fair by the standards OF THE TIME, and a great deal better than most. I will not be made to feel guilty over a past I did not make, cannot change, and which gave us a moderately decent life (up until Blair began the slow destruction of this country, may he rot in hell).

We're missing a HUGE part of the conversation! If it wasn't for German/Prussian industry, notably the Haber-Bosch process, there wouldn't be enough nitrogen in the soil available to support even half of the current earth's population! More than half of the people constantly complaining COULDN'T EVEN EXIST if it weren't for this and the west. For as many millions that died in the world wars (et cetera) I'd say the BILLIONS of lives that have been made possible FAR more than make up for that!! To say otherwise is anti-humanist.

There aren't 8 generations of trauma. There is one (at the most three) generations of lazy-asses that: 1. Don't want to work. 2. Don't want to spend less than they make. 3. Don't want to invest for the long-term. 4. Don't want to live self-disciplined lives. 5. Want everything to be handed to them

In the 19th century, the economic disparity between north and south of Italy coincides with the monetary union.... (yes Italy is a very recent construct) Please don't make me say that you'll find the same attributes of decline in the Euro zone.....

Italian here, and wrapping up a Master in Historical Sciences as it happens. Totally agreed about the granularity of the development across Europe and yes, Italy, with its North and South differences, in terms of industrialization and ideas. It is not a random fact also that in general Italy is less "ahead" than northern countries, and yes, Italy having remained Catholic (like Spain, Portugal and so on) after the Reformation was not without consequence either on that either. I'd suggest a read of Weber's "The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism" which, while outdated and definitely using a bit too wide a brush for the analysis, is still a classic on the subject. On a different note, I agree that the woke capture of cultural institutions at least in Italy is a lot less obvious, but it is starting to get traction here as well. Many of my courses/exams have been extremely tendentious, speaking of the usual suspects, such as Anthropology, Ethnology etcetera, but even Geographic History and yes, History of the US have been painful to get through.

It isn't children that are the problem. It's the parents of said children that should have to go to a re-education program when they migrate, as well as their kids having exposure to it in their school and the 30% like Denmark

Brits may not know their history, but they do live in British culture. The culture is the real life product of our history. We have common law. We have a constitutional monarch. We think politicians are idiots. We don't do what we're told.

The real accomplishment of humanity has been the transfer of knowledge. I think it’s dangerous to say cultural brain differences. Cause then you can it’s just the way they are. A form of dehumanization.

England should get credit for giving up most of their colonies but they did so only when they were in decline and could not control them anymore. Had england been prosperous they likely would have kept their territories.

the immediate question to ask here is: are there really no scholars trying to craft more balanced view of history? only left-biased or right-biased? this seems to me a bit biased :)

Does it matter if the British empire was better or worse in historical times ? The most important part is that it has evolved and became better and better, like all democratic countries.

We need to build a system and structure for collective ideation, reasoning, and truth determination in order to determine what is most important, true, and what to do about it. An immutable record of what everyone believes is important through time that continually grows but doesn't allow anyone to alter or change the record of what happened and what people thought was most important in the past.
