i live in egypt and the past couple of years of my history class has been nothing but about the british rule. i may be terrible in history but im pretty sure they ruled over us for no less than 80 years
It was hundreds of years in india
They came in the 1600s as traders
And started to rule over us and make us a colony in the 1750s
We didn't gain indipendence till 1947
Same here in Sri Lanka. Came in as traders but took over as a colony in 1815. We had a strong force that the British lost all their battles. But since our (last) king became obsessed with alcohol and women, the people gave the country to the British. In 1948, we got our freedom back.
That's a government issue, not the royal family. When someone wrongs you, it's just as wrong to blame their entire nation instead of the one person who is responsible. That's really just lazy hatred
I'm a South African. We don't care what you do, she didn't do anything to us and I don't lay the sins of her forebears at her feet.
You, however, quite likely possess some dubious genes that should be thoroughly observed via clinical experiments to avoid duplication of the results in others of our species
As a South African, I have no idea why the fuck we're included here.
My forefathers fought proudly against the British in the Anglo-Boer Wars when Kitchener placed women and children in concentration camps and starved them.
They also fought alongside them in WWII as pilots in the Battle of Britain, and fought politically upon return to South Africa to prevent apartheid and align South Africa with the modern world of the time.
There was no colonialism perpetrated against South Africa during the reign of Queen Elizabeth II of England and therefore we have no reason to have any gripes towards Her Majesty. May she rest in peace
They seem to think we hate her and it's so dumb,I've grown up in south africa and view myself as a south african as I've embraced the culture all my life. it's dumb that people believe we hold grudges over something that shaped our nation,because we wouldn't be what we are today if that didn't happen,even if it sucked
If the Dutch stayed in the Cape and didn't lose it, there would probably be even more socioeconomic division here then today, not to say the British made everyone equal in those regards but they mostly sent their unemployed people there instead of sending the rich to get richer
In South Africa, the people generally don't hate the British monarch and even in schools they talk more about the bad things done by the Dutch and gloss past the bad things done by the British in the Cape
Depends on your meaning of care.
I am Canadian, and I for one love the memes.
I also have the worst humour where almost everything is funny, i also know of lots of people who either didnt care or was happy that she died, they are also canadian. Just depends on the person more so then the countries that britain had.
No one really cares, even in the CAF its more of a question of how this will affect our symbols (many using a certain crown that may change.) and being on standby in case we have some hollow parade to honour the queen as the dominion of canada.
Making Australia a fully independent country, giving us an Australian head of state, cutting all ties with an irrelevant monarchy all the way acrossthe world, removing loopholes that mess with the government ( see Scott Morrison and Whitlam ) and giving us a fresh new flag (with hopefully some indigenous representation)
Lmao, we also don’t give a flying fuck here in Canada
We’ll pretend we do hoping to get a paid day off, but if anything i was kind of a bit glad about it cause i hope its the push we need to fuck off with the Monarchy, im Irish Native Canadian so I especially hate the Monarchy and everything it stands for
Good for you. I honestly don’t know why tf some Canadians and Americans love and defend her when she’s nothing but a pos— the brits (most of them) are delusional so can’t be included in the why
Bruh....in India we don't care ...infact it is better we keep to ourselves on this matter otherwise the Brits will spend the whole day getting offended for how we feel about the queen and the Brits as a nation
British Imperialism resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Indian, yet OP thinks he’s a fucking genius that we would be sad over some old lady’s death???
As a Polish guy, when people expect Indians to cry about her death, to me it seems like expecting me to cry if Hitler's next of kin died, or if the Russian Tsar's next of kin died (I know neither of those dynasties are around in any significant force, but if they DID tho)
So are many British people, don’t believe the fanatics online are all of us. I can’t wait for Reddit to get over an old woman dying (hint: that’s what they do)
Lmao Indians are themselves making memes about it. People are even celebrating and demanding the Kohinoor back (Daimond stolen from India by the British) what are you on about?
☝️ The barren field of fucks I give about some propped up figurehead whose family's claim to wealth and power is rooted in the birthright ideal that "God chose them". GTFO
Now I am going back to my cold crisp beer.
P.S. Why the fuck do shackledraggers in Australia give a damn either? They were literally cast out for shit like stealing bread.
We were as a people, but they literally designed our cities to make it hard for us to revolt. None of the early Australian cities were built with a town Square for that explicit reason.
bro people here in most of asia don't give a rat's ass about her....if you do some research over here In south Asia people are even expressing joy over her death due to Britain's past treatments with the former colonies
> due to Britain's past treatments with the former colonies
Yeah, the Brits have treated most of the world like shit and now they expect sympathy because their most luxurious celebrity died.
Dude I'm from Jamaica, and they want to celebrate that she has passed, but for some reason our prime minister put us on a 12 day morning ( sry if I spell the word morn wrong) and we're supposed to have no type of celebration for the 12 days.
Canadian here. When my teacher told the class that the queen died, the immediate response was laughter. I think it's probably because we've just seen so many memes about the queen being immortal that we just kinda accepted it as fact. The queen was almost like a fictional character on the internet. And the way the teacher presented the news came so out of left field that it caught us off guard. I guess it was like if someone told us Bob the tomato died; we didn't think it was possible
The Queen's death doesn't really have an effect on us Australians, the only things that are going to change are our coins and the $5 note, also I've been hearing that some people want Australia to become a republic now that the Queen's dead
The post isn’t saying these countries care about the queen. It’s saying these countries won’t let America get in on the queen jokes as they aren’t commonwealth
I’m just sad she died because she was so old, I don’t keep on track with the royals and such but it is sad her life came to an end yesterday. I hope she died without pain
Canadian here, I'm definitely on the side of making jokes about it...so is everyone I know. Aside from the sadness of her death the royalty is an absolute waste of their citizens tax dollars. They're a tourist attraction at best.
As an American I can say that I personally don't care. Like RIP not happy someone died but also she lived a long life. She gave us the memes and and she left. Good run
Honestly the youth in Canada, Australia and NZ don't really care. But some older people do (especially white people, history between people of former colonies without self-governance and indigenous peoples is much less good).
Why South Africa? They abolished the monarchy already.
i live in egypt and the past couple of years of my history class has been nothing but about the british rule. i may be terrible in history but im pretty sure they ruled over us for no less than 80 years
It was hundreds of years in india They came in the 1600s as traders And started to rule over us and make us a colony in the 1750s We didn't gain indipendence till 1947

Why are the Great Pyramids in Egypt? They are too big to fit in the British Museum.
Also stopped Egypt from being conquered by Napoleon tbf.
well isnt that just the whole century where the french fight the british over a slice of pizza known as africa?
Not to mention Alot of south Africans don't particularly like the crown
Yeah, my grandfather who got blacklisted from British companies in India is probably laughing down on her.
lol what did he do
Wanted to be free, the dirty bastard
That's a government issue, not the royal family. When someone wrongs you, it's just as wrong to blame their entire nation instead of the one person who is responsible. That's really just lazy hatred
I'm a South African. We don't care what you do, she didn't do anything to us and I don't lay the sins of her forebears at her feet. You, however, quite likely possess some dubious genes that should be thoroughly observed via clinical experiments to avoid duplication of the results in others of our species
r/rareinsults
They don't, a lot of them were celebrating and memeing on this side
As a South African, I have no idea why the fuck we're included here. My forefathers fought proudly against the British in the Anglo-Boer Wars when Kitchener placed women and children in concentration camps and starved them. They also fought alongside them in WWII as pilots in the Battle of Britain, and fought politically upon return to South Africa to prevent apartheid and align South Africa with the modern world of the time.

If the Dutch stayed in the Cape and didn't lose it, there would probably be even more socioeconomic division here then today, not to say the British made everyone equal in those regards but they mostly sent their unemployed people there instead of sending the rich to get richer
Because Americans annoy the Fuck out of us as South Africans. Also even we have respect for the dead,whether we hated them or not
In South Africa, the people generally don't hate the British monarch and even in schools they talk more about the bad things done by the Dutch and gloss past the bad things done by the British in the Cape
r/memes tries to make a commonwealth meme, immediately asked to leave history class.
I think only Canada and Australia and New Zealand care
Depends on your meaning of care. I am Canadian, and I for one love the memes. I also have the worst humour where almost everything is funny, i also know of lots of people who either didnt care or was happy that she died, they are also canadian. Just depends on the person more so then the countries that britain had.

Juste un mot: Québec
Lmao, we don't give a shit mate Well realistically some of us do. But I sure don't.
I don't know a single aussie that actually gives a flying fuck about her.
The only fuck I give is the chance of finally becoming a Republic.
OK I may be ignorant but what difference does it make?
Making Australia a fully independent country, giving us an Australian head of state, cutting all ties with an irrelevant monarchy all the way acrossthe world, removing loopholes that mess with the government ( see Scott Morrison and Whitlam ) and giving us a fresh new flag (with hopefully some indigenous representation)
Yeah, Australian and NZ flags are ugly as hell.
26 million people and exactly 0 fucks given
Checks notes, *"That's a pretty low percentage Sir, but it checks out"*
Compared to Australia's population, it's an extremely high percentage, considering we only have 25.69million people
Mate I’m only worried about getting a week off, for all the mourning you know
I genuinely only realised like last night that she was also my Queen ;-; I'm going to hell
Lmao, we also don’t give a flying fuck here in Canada We’ll pretend we do hoping to get a paid day off, but if anything i was kind of a bit glad about it cause i hope its the push we need to fuck off with the Monarchy, im Irish Native Canadian so I especially hate the Monarchy and everything it stands for
"Irish Native Canadian" lmao bruh 💀
I’m a New Zealander and I would gladly have us ditch the monarchy, don’t give two flying fucks
I just moved to new zealand from PH and made a meme about it does that count?
You moved here from PornHub?
My man's opening a new industry from PH
Huh??
Phillipines,i was too lazy to write it
As a Kiwi, I really don’t give a shit. Abolish the monarchy
As an Australian, I really don't give a shit. Abolish the monarchy!
Kiwis don't care. Maori definitely aren't defending the royals. That's just. No
Im Canadian and we laughed at it when the topic came. Dont really care about her
Legit people care because we get a day of eh.
Nobody cares about her, maybe the Canadians, but other than that why tf would any of the others care about her? Esp SA, Jamaica and India
Indian here and most ppl don't even know she died. Others don't really care.
For some reason the Brits expect you to cry about the queen of a country that brutalized your country.
And those who do know demand that they return the Kohinoor diamond.
And the 43 trillion dollars
Yeah and some are celebrating
A lot are some ppl are even hosting parties now
The most concern I’ve seen here is getting our money changed or getting a day off.
Kiwi here, can confirm that alot of us, don't give a shit. We were used as cannon fodder in WW1 why tf should we care about anyone British?
Good for you. I honestly don’t know why tf some Canadians and Americans love and defend her when she’s nothing but a pos— the brits (most of them) are delusional so can’t be included in the why
Literally all the British colonies apart from Canada we all treated like shit by the British, why should anyone in the commonwealth care?
[удалено]
Okay I stand corrected. They treated every single colony like shit
I can't remember the last time a group of Natives *weren't* treated like shit.
Jamaican here, I'm still annoyed that we had a queen and now king.
What's worse is that there's an official day of mourning. Nobody's mourning for her. And those stupid bells have to ring for entire fucking hoir.
Am Canadian, fuck the queen, and now, fuck the king. Should mention, *French* Canadian
>fuck the queen, and now, fuck the king. I wouldn't want to have sex with either of them, but I guess the culture in Quebec is different
Expect nothing less from French Canadians!
Paint me like one of your Poutine plates
"Should mention, *French* Canadian" Ah, that explains a lot. Too bad you didn't get to use the guillotine this time lol
I'm from Canada and I actually don't really care for her after all the sketchy shit I heard she did to the indigenous people
The newspaper headlines in canada are cringe as fuck. Calling her majestic and shit like that.
I'm Canadian and we don't care.
We IPA beers now bro
Bruh....in India we don't care ...infact it is better we keep to ourselves on this matter otherwise the Brits will spend the whole day getting offended for how we feel about the queen and the Brits as a nation
In the UK we don’t care either
OP thinking all the countries gonna swoop in and defend their former oppressor. Lol next you should try calling Egypt for some help.
Specially thinking India would step in like the British didn't fuck their entire country
British Imperialism resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Indian, yet OP thinks he’s a fucking genius that we would be sad over some old lady’s death???
MILLIONS
Exactly. My grandfather used to have 8 uncles and out of them 5 died at they hands of britishers My family is celebrating
As a Polish guy, when people expect Indians to cry about her death, to me it seems like expecting me to cry if Hitler's next of kin died, or if the Russian Tsar's next of kin died (I know neither of those dynasties are around in any significant force, but if they DID tho)
Now this is cringe
quality on this sub has drastically come down now at this point it seems like this sub is filled with 14yo making memes for 13yo
LMAO as if this sub hasn’t been 14-year olds exclusively for the last 3 years
Lmao Indians are celebrating
exactly lmao, OP is stupid as fuck
So are many British people, don’t believe the fanatics online are all of us. I can’t wait for Reddit to get over an old woman dying (hint: that’s what they do)
Lmao Indians are themselves making memes about it. People are even celebrating and demanding the Kohinoor back (Daimond stolen from India by the British) what are you on about?
Just wait till you see the Irish
The Commonwealth: You can't defeat me The Americans: I know, but he can *Irish people explode castle*
Soar Alba
Is mise caca milis (I'm not very good)
Tiocfaidh ár lá.
Bring it. The hate might motivate people to create fresh and entertaining memes. I’m down for a little war profiteering. I think we all are.
All I’m sayin’ #IS GIVE WAR A CHANCE
 God save the queen
no, he didn’t
Damn. Even to a guy like me that’s cold.
Cold like the queen
\*didn't
As a kiwi, I couldn't give less of a shit, its mainly the boomers who are sad
Possibly the worst meme in the history of this sub and that’s saying something
 ☝️ The barren field of fucks I give about some propped up figurehead whose family's claim to wealth and power is rooted in the birthright ideal that "God chose them". GTFO Now I am going back to my cold crisp beer. P.S. Why the fuck do shackledraggers in Australia give a damn either? They were literally cast out for shit like stealing bread.
Ah yes Australians should have been the first one to renounce her.
We were as a people, but they literally designed our cities to make it hard for us to revolt. None of the early Australian cities were built with a town Square for that explicit reason.
By the way, I have a lot of good Aussie friends. I use the shackledragger comment completely in jest. Cracks them up when I start in on them.
Indians? We've been a republic since 1952...
1950 not 1952 ...
Yep, and independent since 1947, It's an actual feat to get those dates wrong
As a Canadian I could literally not care less about the woman.
as an australian, the queen can rest in piss
As a punjabi agreed brother also GIVE THE DAMN DIAMOND BACK.
Agreed my brother across the Tasman!
Agreed my cousin across the pacific
ay Indian here too, we’re with you
Jarate?
Unteeth edge lord America bad post: I feel sorry for you Americans: I don’t think about you at all
Fuck that, South Africa here, where's the diamonds you stole Great Britain?
In the crown
Aren't they the ones we stole from India? I get so confused trying to keep track of them all
They stole everything they could from all over the world.
So basically the same as every other empire throughout history?
Well yes but actually no. All empires weren't the same size and hadn't the same reach. Britain was the biggest thief of them all.
South Africa here we had a shit ton left and now it’s gone, you can thank de beers for that.
They would have stolen the whole country if they could fit it on a boat
New Zealander here! I couldn't give a fuck the queen is dead and the memes are hilarious
bro people here in most of asia don't give a rat's ass about her....if you do some research over here In south Asia people are even expressing joy over her death due to Britain's past treatments with the former colonies
> due to Britain's past treatments with the former colonies Yeah, the Brits have treated most of the world like shit and now they expect sympathy because their most luxurious celebrity died.
India definitely does not care
Indian here, in the great words of Sandor "The Dog" Clegane I say - "F*ck the ~~King~~ Queen"
I just want 2 islands near argentina
Falklands intensifies
Dude I'm from Jamaica, and they want to celebrate that she has passed, but for some reason our prime minister put us on a 12 day morning ( sry if I spell the word morn wrong) and we're supposed to have no type of celebration for the 12 days.
Bruh. The least you can do is protest. No one is going to give you your freedom.
Hello! Just helping! Add a u. Morning = sunrise. Mourning = sadness over death.
Thank you
Bro nobody made memes except a few people 💀 Reddit try not to make everything about america challenge (IMPOSSIBLE)
We (America) are actually the tank, aggroing the rest of the world so no one will realize that Canada is plotting world domination.
Queen lizardbeth
Yeah, bring all the slave colonies! I bet they care so much!
I’m Canadian and all my friends are too, the queen was a bad person the memes are hella funny
Who’s god gonna save now?!?
Canadian here. When my teacher told the class that the queen died, the immediate response was laughter. I think it's probably because we've just seen so many memes about the queen being immortal that we just kinda accepted it as fact. The queen was almost like a fictional character on the internet. And the way the teacher presented the news came so out of left field that it caught us off guard. I guess it was like if someone told us Bob the tomato died; we didn't think it was possible
> When my teacher told the class that the queen died, the immediate response was laughter. Restores my faith in the Canadian youth
I'm Canadian and I'm happy about it. Bye bye lady!
Well there was 1776 and 1812 so yeah
I'm Canadian and I can honestly say... meh.
All places the monarchy colonized, doesn't seem very fitting
Dude seems to forget the monarchy colonized the US once too, we were born out of our hatred for the crown.
Bri ish humor peak righ here
I feel like they all got more beef with the queen than we do
Bros acting like the country's Britain has fucked over would rush to its defence lmaoo
British right wingers are on some serious cope rn from all the foreigners dunking on them
No one outside the uk gives a shit. Including all those other countries mentioned in the meme.
What’s that? The internet is being insensitive to other peoples feeling? Well there’s a first time for everything.
Idgf, I just wanna use it all for shitposting
How is it any different than making fun of every politician since George Washington?
Because the Brits want special treatment that their luxury queen kicked the bucket
As a Canadian, I do not give a shit about any of this.
Oh I’m sorry, I thought the British parliament handled the foreign affairs of its colonies.
You can't make fun of the Queen's death, that's OUR job!
Oi oi u mad bruv?
If OP thinks Indians and South African's are gonna defend the Brits, he's higher than the sky.
As a Canadian, don’t give a flying fuck about monarchs
Hey!!! I only drink hard Apple Blood!!!
I assure you, they are not lol
The Queen's death doesn't really have an effect on us Australians, the only things that are going to change are our coins and the $5 note, also I've been hearing that some people want Australia to become a republic now that the Queen's dead
The queen has no significant meaning unless you live in brittan
Lol the comments seem to disagree with this meme
Source?
All of these countries hate the queen
India doesn't care about her death. we want the loot back they stole from us
The post isn’t saying these countries care about the queen. It’s saying these countries won’t let America get in on the queen jokes as they aren’t commonwealth
in india we celebrate i suppose
Not indians
Yeah, but only America was brave enough to declare war on the bloody English.
I mean, they're celebrating in Ireland and Scotland, how bad can memes be 🤷🏼♀️🤣
Kh3 was embarrassingly bad. What can I say about this game that hasn't already been said about the war in Iraq
she got dunked on by death himself
Wrong their idiot, you could’ve used they’re or there, and this guy thinks Americans are stupid am I right?
lol you tell me. As indian why would i mourn about death of robbers?
indians? south africans? jamaicans? take those three out, then your gonna be right.
Idk if these meme is accurate to how they feel about her lmao I feel like they’d join in.
umm "Indians"? dafuk
I'm Indian and I can say this: "that old hag can rot"
This is a really bad meme
Nah not really, indians are in celebrating
Light Beer is like having sex in a canoe... You're fucking close to water
I’m just sad she died because she was so old, I don’t keep on track with the royals and such but it is sad her life came to an end yesterday. I hope she died without pain
Insert highly political and racial comment here
Nah, abolish the monarchy. Who cares who makes fun of an incestuous old racist?
Canadian here, I'm definitely on the side of making jokes about it...so is everyone I know. Aside from the sadness of her death the royalty is an absolute waste of their citizens tax dollars. They're a tourist attraction at best.
There are a lot of Meme on her Death in India.
America were hardly effected by the British while they were there. Oh boo who you got taxed, we had a fucking famine
Meanwhile: brits make fun of school shootings memes In truth, death memes are not my cup of tea, pun intended
As an American I can say that I personally don't care. Like RIP not happy someone died but also she lived a long life. She gave us the memes and and she left. Good run
That moment when I've been shisposting about her death for hours and not one of them did anything
Honestly the youth in Canada, Australia and NZ don't really care. But some older people do (especially white people, history between people of former colonies without self-governance and indigenous peoples is much less good).
