I'm pretty sure the aboriginals in Australia still have disparities today as a result of British colonialism.

That argument has no correlation with the discussion we're having. If I were defending British colonialism, yeah, it'd be fine. But I'm defending the late Prince's right to make a joke.

No, you have a low tolerance for jokes that can be considered offensive. You're the type of person who would support Scotland's newly introduced hate crime and public order bill. After reading it through I realised I can now be brought to court for calling someone "small-dicked" (see clause on genital variation) and I have concluded that Prince Philip must have been at the top of Scotland Yard's most wanted.

They continue to actively benefit socially, financially, and otherwise from the atrocities committed by the UK and their family within the past few generations and prior. So yeah, they're pretty damn complacent.

How so? By inheriting old money? That's not complacency. Unless, of course, you're referring to their main source of income -- tax. However, despite my political position, and to the surprise of my like-minded friend Fluvannia, I don't believe tax is an atrocity.
