Recently, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle encouraged Britain to acknowledge the past of the Commonwealth and urged to right the wrongs of colonialism.
They were speaking against racial injustice and said that accepting the past would be uncomfortable but it needs to be done.

India too was one of the Asian countries colonised by the British. So, someone on Twitter said that if not for colonisation, Indian wouldn’t have been a country it is today.
Shut up. Without colonialism, India would not be a country. It would be 357 warring tribes that don’t speak the same language. History is not an occasion for spoiled fops like yourselves to virtue signal. https://t.co/GTiCu0oIZT

Okay, so this tweet didn’t go down well with Indians and they lashed out on the Twitter user for promoting racism and colonialism.
Indians even asked him to learn History, where India was a full-fledged civilisation long before Britain even existed.
Well when the so called Europeans were busy Barbarians, India had a millienia old civilization. Those languages that you mention are still spoken widely and India ie. Bharat has been a continuing civilization for millenias

Without India, the Brits could not get the borrowed glow to call itself “super”power; all faded right after ’47 and continuing downhill. Get real education, not the colonial dribble.

History, Sir, is also not an occasion to whitewash & sanitise the plunder & degradation of a country & it’s people by barbarians who came from a sorry, little, cold island.

We were not ‘357 warring tribes’ but an ancient civilisation way beyond your understanding.
Bharatha varshe bharatha kandhe… We existed as a civilization even before Europe existed.. Our gods walked on this land. Our gurus established mutts throughout the country. Kashmir to Kanyakumari, we are called Bharathavasi’s

Racism, and more racism in this tweet. It’s essentially—“We starved you, oppressed you, partitioned you, and left with a 7 figure death toll in our immediate wake. Be grateful.”

This isn’t how historians talk, but it is how entitled racist men talk. https://t.co/fQmxvYpvPw
IGNORANCE at its worst! 🙏🙏🙏#Decolonize #ReEducate #Inclusivity https://t.co/SEnjIiI6sK

If a so called region of “357 warring tribes” can enable barbarians from a sorry island to plunder 144 trillion then you need to seriously rethink your definition of a civilisation. https://t.co/CW4UomROfi

Listen you jerk, colonization didn’t gave India “a country”, it divided the whole subcontinent into many! https://t.co/Ng1HSwGp9p
Bharat did exist in full glory when your ancestors were still learning to use fire…. You are tribal invaders and looters of wealth, we are a timeless immortal civilization that spreads knowledge… https://t.co/DYTMwF973r

You need to study more history. Nation state is a post Napoleonic era concept. Italy, Germany etc weren’t nation states to begin with.

BTW, Ireland is conceptually one nation, Britain has undone geography by protestantisation as well as conquest. https://t.co/aWFjAK1bWF
We are thankful that you came here with such nobel intention through “East India Company” for uniting us Indians… https://t.co/Dg54c4IFtI

You shut up, without colonialism, England would mint be a country. British would be begging & fighting each other like tribes. Indian had worlds oldest civilizations, we had great ruling dynasties too. For u kind info we don’t speak same language throughout the country even now. https://t.co/Yfrzy7Sfe6
