Don't bring this up with British people. They have brainrot from decades and decades of conservative propaganda, even if they are otherwise left-leaning, and will often result in the stupidest arguments just because they haven't bothered to spend 5 minutes to think about them.

Or, you know, they just agree that the artifacts should just be returned.

Generalising across a while group, let alone a nationality, is just plain dumb

Fair enough. It's just incredibly disheartening to find how certain kinds of chauvinistic attitudes that belong in the 19th century are so widespread even amongst people I expected would know better.
