Kind of wokish bull. Virtually everything she stated was literally out of context. For example, the East India Company was factually pretty corrupt in many ways, BUT...
She misquoted the book saying, "Tha East India Company was one of the greatest companies of all time." If one pays attention, the book's wording said it was "... the greatest TRADING company." In context, and in it's day, it was the greatest in terms of its success.
Then the so-called racist stuff about Scots and the Irish ... again out of context. In the 50's especially, and today even, those were all correct comments in a factual sense
Her analysis is like the saying about a solution looking for a problem, or something like that.
