Serious question to all historians: Is there any precedent for what Europe is doing to itself? This post will be about the U.K., but similar posts could be written about most of the continent.
Setting aside our exceptional America, is there any country that has more to be proud of than England? Sure, it also has much it would like to sweep under the rug, but, good lord, if you were to list all the milestones mankind had to pass to get from the Hobbesian world of nasty, brutish, and short to today’s cultural summit, England can claim credit for more of them than any other nation. The term “Western Civilization” should always be pronounced with an English accent.
Beyond their own accomplishments, the English should rightfully take pride in the accomplishments of their children — America, Canada, and Australia — as well as the stepchildren who, whether they admit it or not, benefited by their non-consented-to adoption by the crown.
Here is what England should say to the world: You are damn right we were colonizers, and all who we colonized should say “Thank you”. We made the world a better place through our efforts. Instead, they apologize and beg forgiveness. Instead, they say they are not worthy to lead — they say they are not worthy to succeed.
Two malicious forces are currently in the process of trying to destroy Western Civilization — Marxism and Islam. The two are wildly incompatible with each other, but in modern England, they are working together to bring the magnificent beast down.
If this were a normal invasion, we Americans would not hesitate to ride to the rescue. But this is not a normal invasion. It is a slow-motion suicide, and the dying patient refuses to fight back and refuses to ask for help. All we can do is watch with bewildered sadness.

I believe it's an act of war.
Traditional warfare is not very practical today. Instead, it is so, so much easier to simply pay off politicians in the target nation to make really bad decisions, with a believable excuse for cover.
That's exactly what this looks like.
See my posts “The Smokeless War", This Would Explain a Lot of Things, and VDH Has a Question, I Have an Answer.

Is there any country that has more to be ashamed of? From the Potato Famine to the Opium Wars to the Bengal Famines?

Oh yeah. Its an invasion.
When I first visited the UK in 1976 the country was about 97% ethnic British. a small shrinking of "Diversity", that because of its size was digestible to the country. They melted in and were assimilated. By 2021, the last year they are publishing data for ( and before a huge wave of migration) the non indigenous percentage was up to 16% .
Since the 90's under both Labor and Conservative governments, millions and millions have been imported, despite the British people never wanting it to happen. Time after time, they have been betrayed.
Today, in many major cities native British are a minority like London and Birmingham, with enclaves of "diversity", self segregating into ethnic ghettoes, frequently with mutual dislike of their neighbors of other ethnicity.
Why?

Well then surely, you must want to leave that legacy of the Evil Hated British where you reside, and return to your Beloved, Native, Wonderful India,no?

Britain is removing historical figures such as Churchill and Jane Austen from the paper currency and replacing them with images of wildlife or landscapes. See my post Destroying the Passwords. Also mentioned is the attempt to 'decolonize' Shakespeare's birthplace over fears that his success ‘benefits the ideology of white European supremacy’ and the way in which the National Museum of Wales is 'relabeling' the replica of Trevithick's first steam locomotive.
