You appear to be ignorant of the history of the British Empire and the role the Scots played in it. One point worth mentioning: the motivation for the union between England and Scotland was that the Scottish had bankrupted themselves in their own attempts to form an empire (Google the Darien Scheme). The Scots were not conquered; they voluntarily joined the Union.

The British Empire was not the English Empire, and the Scottish played as much of a role in its formation and administration as the English.

The Darien Scheme failed because the English colonial establishment worked hard to sabotage it, because it competed with their own interests.

English Nationalists like yourself are far more toxic than the Scots Nats. You're still trying to play the same spoiler games you were playing more than two hundred years ago.

Aye, perfidious Albion is always to blame for Scotland's failures. And I'm not an English nationalist. I'm a Unionist.

Unionism is English nationalism, as currently structured.

Do you believe then that the majority of Scots who voted against independence were, in fact, English nationalists?

So you're of the belief the son pays for the debt of the father - which country has paid off this debt? The US, Germany, France (ad infinitum)?

Seems a bit unhinged to me.

"and admit their horrific acts" - I don't think any person from the UK/US has engaged in any of this (both educational systems teach about the wrongs of the Empire and American expansionism at the cost of natives AFAIK), but you're prescribing guilt, it's vindictive madness. Does a child born in the UK from African parents inherit this sin?

A person may be free from guilt, but a nation is not. I can, with absolute certainty, tell you that the educational system of the Uk does not go into details on the horrific acts of their empire, they do not get into details of how they pitted communities against each other and orchestrated coups all around the world that resulted in 'interventions', all premeditated, they do not go into details on the torturing they committed.
