That's why the entire concept of retarded. Did Britain as a nation colonize other parts of the globe? Sure. But that has zero to do with Shakespeare and his works.

The Leftists brain rot that has infected The West has be eradicated.

Wait! Before that happens shouldn’t some government issue a $20MM grant to research Shakespeare’s preferred pronouns?

How do we really know if this entity identified as white or male?

Oh well, it seems those of western European descent really wish to join the list of things extinct. The only hope for European culture is southeast and east. Maybe it will survive. It was a good run, but all things end. Wish we would fight back better.

Oh yeah. That Macbeth showed the greatness and superiority all right!
Just make another movie to make up for all the damage. Idris can play lead in the new 'Shakespeare in Harlem' remake.

Much of modern English comes from the words of William Tyndal and William Shakespeare. 80 percent of the words in the King James Bible come from Tyndal’s works and Shakespeare was reputed to have worked on the King James Bible.

The St Crispins day speech in Henry V is some of the most stirring prose in the English language. “We few, we happy few. We band of brothers.”

The problem isn’t Shakespeare. It is idiots that want to destroy western culture and values including Christianity.


Time for the English to rise up and protect their language and culture. The best way is to empty the trash. Get rid of the garbage promoting nonsense.

But there aren't "equal and different" writers globally that had near the impact that Shakespeare did.

The bullshite "poetry" coming out of Africa makes it seem like the people there haven't even developed object permanence.

Being the greatest is a matter of opinion.

Suppressing opinions is totalitarianism.

Hitler was a totalitarian.

These people are Hitler.

Churchill asked Olivier to make the St Crispins day speech to arouse the British Army fighting Hitler.

Shakespeare wrote that speech.

Suppressing Shakespeare enables fascists.

Exactly. It is objectively impossible to decolonize one’s own birthplace. It doesn’t even make sense, but when do these people ever make sense?

I would genuinely burst into laughter if I went to a Shakespeare production and they opened with a trigger warning.

It seems common that "trusts" and other organizations in charge or famous names, or artists, become just absolute liberal trash.

From the Ford Foundation to this Trust in charge of Shakespeare's legacy, they actually harm their namesakes.
