Are we set to denounce every British piece of art or literature attributed to some

Once upon a time that was the case, yes. But the problem is they've been taught to think and behave like this by actual adults. And they're going out into the world and being indulged in this nonsense.

We're basically, all oppressing white scum, who, come the glorious day, will be forced to pay for the actions of our forefathers.
I mean, just put a bullet in my head right now.

The irony that they are actually embodying Kipling's rather harsh assessment of what native peoples do with the freedom and benefits they receive is obviously lost on them.

Take up the White Man's burden--
The savage wars of peace--
Fill full the mouth of Famine
And bid the sickness cease;
And when your goal is nearest
The end for others sought,
Watch sloth and heathen Folly
Bring all your hopes to nought.

Hang on, I'm a descendant of Lithuanians, Polanders and Germans, or a "Gippo" as SW so delicately put it .

I'm pretty sure they haven't done anything too bad in the past. So, I'll play the "I'm not that British" card, come the revolution.

Oh, the German bit...

Won't help you. A while ago, I pointed out to a high-caste Indian lady who works over here and has lived a life vastly more privileged than mine that my ancestors were Irish and had been on the wrong end of imperialism, too. Didn't matter, she said. I had grown up with white privilege and that meant I was just as complicit as if I'd been packing blacks onto a slaver.

'Intersectionality' is just a respectable front for abusing and discriminating against straight white men.

Yeah. Ignore them, do what's right.
