Bow before me, and tremble...

Excellent....

Shocking! You're not a member of the 7 at all--
you're their archnemesis! You've used every
weapon at your disposal to climb politically
and professionally, and you have no intention
of allowing one miserable lot of ex-cons in a
stolen ship to bring you down.

Although I've put a biot of weight on since then. Oh, and I'm a bloke.

Bit of a bugger, really.

Still, crush them like the dogs they are, I say....

Are you suitably guilty?

In his latest meme, [livejournal.com profile] pax_draconis included the original and interesting question of post-Imperial guilt.

Of course, at the time when I was filling out the meme, I did so in a deliberately facetious way just to pass time and have a giggle. I thought no more about it.

But now with the spread of the meme (a memaspora?) around the good people whose journals I read, I note that there is a surprising number of the UK people who claim to 'suffer' (it that is the mot juste) from post-Imperial guilt in one manner or another.

I find this surprising, since I myself do not - that was one of my less facetious answers to the meme; largely because I couldn't think of anything witty. Anyway, since a significant sample of people whom I like and respect, if not necessarily always agree with, feel this 'guilt' it started me thinking on the nature of guilt and consequences.

So I decided to rant about it... )

Feel free to read, skip, or debate.

It's not aimed at anybody and it's not meant to offend. But it may start an interesting debate.

Or not.

The choice is yours.
