        All British #Museums are full of #looted property, without them it will be only #haunted halls. Private collectors in #US and #UK have trillions worth stolen art and artefacts from whole world, all are #robbers.

        If the English had to return everything they have stolen through the years, they would be broke.

        Apparently, the magical protection objects didn't work very well. Because everything was looted. 🤔🤔🤔

        Why are you still try to impress your well trained(not educated) and earning high salary slaves? This object is meaningless. No inspire. Keep or strow? It is up to you.

        What about the other stolen objects at the British Museum? The Elgin Marbles, for example, obtained over the heads of the whole Greek nation?

        How about the statue from the Parthenon in Greece? There is a beautiful, temp and humidity controlled museum at the P, and yet you still hide the statue of one of the Pleiades you stole in a corner of the British Museum that is rarely open to the public.

        Most nations bought, bartered for, stole and plundered other nations treasures throughout history. The Brits just did it better. No take backs, haha! #SuckIt 🤗
