      It’s actually fucking insane Churchill and his policies killed 4 million Indians while he was in office and you call it “precisely the monster required at the time” fuck if you think so lowly of brown people I guess Hitler was the monster required for the time too, he broke the western European colonial empires to the point their empires crumbled not long after. So 6 million Jews, makes Hitler the most evil man on earth but 4+ million south Asians dying under Churchills watch is “precisely the monster required for the time” you fucking dunce

          Yes, everybody understands that was your perspective. You just happened to share that perspective on a post talking about a man-made famine in India. So, uh, you failed at context.
