There's a list here on Wiki claiming 62, not 72 but it's complete nonsense. I mean, the first one on the list is Afghanistan. That was never a Brit. colony ever. Then it lists Pakistan as separate from India. Absolute nonsense written by an ignoramus.

Do people think that everyone was going around handing out flowers and hugs?

    I make no excuses for the centuries of American imperialism. I have opposed every war "we" have undertaken in my adult life, let my congressional representatives know that, and told many a superpatriotic "America is always right" or "we have to stand behind our troops" fool that they are full of s--t. 

     But I do not excoriate everybody that happens to be a citizen of a nation that is engaged in an unjust war by labeling them as baby-killing Nazis (ironic in the present situation as the Ukrainian government has put up monuments for actual Ukrainian Nazis that aided the Germans in their extermination of Jewish Ukrainians in WWII) and trying to ban them from chess.com and denying their humanity.

Russia is north korea 2.0. Nobody likes them and their cut off from the world. Except of course China likes them a little bit. 12k dead Russian soldiers, 8 dead high ranking sergeants in the Russian military. The Russian ruble isn't worth anything outside of Russia. Vladimir putin made the biggest mistake in Russian history. Sucks for Russian citizens because they'll go to prison for 15 years for nit agreeing with their evil dictator

Don’t bother arguing with Optimissed she’s gone too far into the depths of madness. In a place where the British aren’t the most hated country in the whole world for all of their attempted genocides

Can't be that hated. Everyone and their mother wants to live here.

Taco meats has also absorbed too much of his country’s propaganda. Literally only NATO stands with Ukraine. The vast majority of the rest of the world stands with Russia

Imagine thinking the American dollar that is backed by absolutely nothing now that oil will not be traded in it has any real power left in the world. Everyone knows America is broken and powerless. Look at their president

They were invited by the Afghan government, actually. Britain was at war with Afghanistan. It wasn't an invasion at all. Just a war. Learn history.

When my country invaded Afghanistan and kills children good. When Russia does it bad. Ahh I see you’re a very logical man

IKR?  Every place on the planet has done evil crap.  The vast majority of russians have done nothing wrong & r good people. It's just a few azzholes that have started trouble in order to control people. To those on here wanting to block people over a flag,  just block everyone & don't play chess because everyone lives somewhere that has had someone there that done some evil crap.  Think about it.

     If you were better educated about the history of your own country's imperialism you would know that many of the nations on the list were "protectorates" that Great Britain "magnanimously" took charge of to "protect" them. And how is it "nonsense" to remember that Pakistan and Bangladesh were indeed conquered by England?

Dreamscapeshorizon has summed up my point better than I ever could. Well done. It’s sad how willing most people are to hate people they have never met
