It's not new to anyone. It happened 265 years ago.
Some people may not know this part of history, because no one knows everything, but nevertheless it's not news.

I’m certain you’ll delete this but it blows my mind that some folks can’t fathom that [b]most[/b] people prefer to be "masters in their own home". It’s a "mutiny" when Native people resist being ruled by foreigners ? And yet today some of you complain that an Englishman of Indian descent is your Prime Minister ?
