    Why would you be proud/embarrased by people who died centuries before you were born? I mean, i also extend this to communist figures, Che was awesome but why would i be proud of his accomplishments?

    Disclaimer: ignore this comment if said country is still actively doing colonialism but in a more subtle way.

      Because we live in a society and the traditions of all dead generations weighs like a nightmare on the brains of the living :monke-ruserious:

      But on a more serious note, the survey is basically just asking you to make a value judgment on old tyrannical empires, aside from the open chuds who love everything those empires represented you also have the real and fake apathetics who would rather launder their identification and social links to these old systems thru noncommittal answers, despite the fact the character and nature of those empires should be abominable to any half-decent individual

        *any half-decent individual who had a half-decent education, when you're fed propaganda, just propaganda, no wonders that's what you believe, something something class consciousness
