Collective guilt is problematic regardless of which direction you point the gun.

It's really telling you jumped right to "guilt". Nobody said the Brits had to feel guilty for their ancestors doing that. Just that they don't get to complain lol

Are Brits not guilty of conquering the world? That would seem to be an honest reading of what you wrote.

		Not only did I not use the word, you're conflating "being guilty" (others think you did something bad) and "feeling guilt" (feeling remorse for your actions). Are you ESL? I can modulate my language if you are.
