Didn’t know until today that while attempting to crush the rebellions against colonialism the British army used head hunting as a method of oppression.

Also found the below shocking (I guess I shouldn’t given the general barbarity of colonialism and the propaganda around it that is firmly in place to this day).

Quote:

Despite the shocking imagery of the photographs of soldiers posing with decapitated heads in Malaya, the Daily Worker was the only British newspaper to publish them during the 20th century, and the photographs were virtually ignored by the mainstream British press.
