When did it stop being the British Empire?

Like, I'll agree that it did, but it wasn't before WWII. The Union Jack flew long after that, and many of the shitty domestic practices stayed too - just ask anyone Native.

If we're saying yay rape or torture, that's bad and dumb. If they're saying yay kill the POWs, that's also bad and dumb. Again, I'll let people be their own judge.
