These faggots deserve what they promote, you wanted a liberal society that imports other cultures. Well guess what, it was white westerners who rescued the relics being used as toys and trash in Egypt, same in Africa, all we got for saving the heritages of the world was scorn and cries of colonialism. Now you are mad that the cultures you imported still don’t give a fuck.
I get why some people freak out about "stealing" artifacts, but they were literally sitting there by cultures that were intentionally destroying them and so they got rescued and preserved for.... well let's just say virtually all time thanks to this. Maybe there were some mishaps along the way, but seriously "colonialism" is actually one of the best things that ever happened to archaeology and to preserve cultures throughout the world xD even if it wasn't intended to be.
African Americans wouldn't know the shape of the continent that they wear on their t shirts if it wasn't for colonization.
colonialism was objectively good.
Anyone who knows even basic terrestrial mythology knows the origin of the mummy's curse:
The origin is disease. Obviously. Specifically, Egyptian people were using mummy wrappings to wrap food. They were breaking apart ancient tombs and shrines and pyramids, going "oh, corpse, well, smashy smashy fun times, hey look, wrapping paper!" and putting it on their lunches. Then getting sick. And going "clearly, mummy tomb is cursed".
Meanwhile, the British went "you're smashing these things for fun, destroying them... And using them in foodstuffs? Okay... no. All that shit is coming with us back to England."
Flash forward several centuries, and you get "Waah, waah, our heritage! You stole it!"
I guess they wanted to use the stone sarcophagi and grind them down to gravel for their roads or something, and were short on rocks, so had to yell at the brits. They probably would have, not like they historically didn't pull that shit before. Even now just a country or two over, they're STILL grinding historical statues into rubble.
Is that REALLY what was happening, damn. I give a lot of shit to the 600-1400's Europeans that dismantled Roman roads and structures to build houses, but at least using well cut marble to build a slightly better house isn't as bad as eating the rotting skin droppings from some dead dudes.
This. Hopefully the savages destroy all these shitty museums across Europe
We should not wish for the destruction of historical artifacts simply out of spite for those who have terrible judgement. This is an unhealthy mindset to dwell in.
