American "Revolution"? Fought for by aristocrats and lead to little major political change. Boston "Massacre"? Five people dead, less than shootings today. British "tyranny" upon elite American colonists? A tax exclusively on tea, not literal genocide like they did to India and others
Dunmore's Proclamation was what brought guys like Washington, Madison, Jefferson, and Patrick Henry into the American Revolution. The Brits were openly challenging their position as slave-owners.
