I'm not denying that, I'm only stating that it started with England. There's a lot of forced erasure and handwaving from a lot of different people and areas about all the stuff England did for centuries. America might have done some awful stuff, but my country suffered more from England's actions than America's.
I think people tend to focus more on America these days because America continues to actively do it to this day, along with the Vatican, whereas the other colonial powers have largely scaled back/stopped.
I don't think anyone is denying that England fucked up most of the world in every aspect, not just culture and gay rights. Most Brits I know are well aware of the fact. I guess my point is there are countries such as the USA which are doing it right now, not 70 years ago. Gay rights have gone backwards in Uganda since American missionaries got involved there. If you want to protest cultural imperialism, the USA is as good of a target as England in the modern day.
