    That undersells how damning this is.

    “The stuff we stole and then kept on the basis that we are the best caretakers for these priceless historical artefacts was then stolen en mass” is a bit closer to the mark. Bad enough we refused to give it back, to then lose it to criminals is… well… criminal.

    This is sort of ironic since their chief excuse for hoarding all that stolen loot in the first place was that they claimed they’d be protecting it better than the original owners could have

    Irrelevant, though.

    Jsocial,

    It was never true.

    Who’s to say they wouldn’t be currently missing if not stolen by a museum?

    Hey hey hey, he's got a point! People who have things don't usually safeguard them like they should!

    With that in mind, I'm sure between the two of us, we can manage his finances way better than him. He should just give his paychecks to us and we'll pay his bills and keep the money safe.

    Who's to say it's not true? Bob_wiley? Nah, that guy sucks at finances and would just spend it on frivolous shit or literally just throw it in the garage, that's the kind of savage shit those .World users would do. We can just hold onto the money for him, in our accounts. The money will totally be safe there and we can all agree that we'd be the better people to safeguard the cash for Bob_Wiley. Way better than Bob_Wiley himself.

    That seams like a reasonable place to find them.

    Those who do not use system-wide ad blocking are stealing from themselves

    NocturnalMorning, in ‘Nobody was expecting it’: British Museum warned reputation seriously damaged and treasures will take decades to recover

    Experts say loss of 1,500 items reveals lax cataloguing and boosts case for returning objects to countries of origin

    Maybe don’t steal historical artifacts from other countries?

    Waggles, in The idea that imprisonment 'corrects' prisoners stretches back to some of the earliest texts in history

    It’s just the timeout corner for adults.
