- Ma8ee 4y agoThe point is that you can write a very similar article about a country that doesn’t invade its neighbours, which means that it just doesn’t prove anything.
- AnimalMuppet 4y agoBe just in your quest for justice. If the UK goes on a killing spree to restore the empire, that has zero to do with Shakespeare or Milton. Don't blame the centuries-dead guys for the current generation's going genocidal. Sure, there may be plenty to boycott. Boycott anyone who supports the genocidal regime. The dead ones didn't get a say, though.
- the_af 4y agoThe UK has plenty of great authors, I'll make sure to keep reading them even if the UK decided to go on a genocidal rampage. That's because I understand that not all British people are the same, and especially not the same at all times, and also know that literature has ties to the present, but it doesn't necessarily cause the present. In fact, many times the leaders who decide to go to war deride the classics, or would have imprisoned/executed them had they lived during the same time.
