Historically speaking when did the US and Britain become friends?
>>
1914
>>
>>18004744
It's an artificial friendship created after WW2. Their elites were enemies as late as the 1930s
>>
>>18004744
During the Gilded Age when a new wave of wealthy American aristocrats started breeding with British nobles to secure their wealth

>Their elites were enemies as late as the 1930s
Wrong. Winston Churchills parents are literally American and British aristocrats whom married in the 1870s.

When Churchill told the British people America would be calling the shots now

>>18004744
Never. America’s “friendship” is empty; they have always been opposed to Britain and worked to undermine them whenever they could. The so called “special relationship” is a falsehood.
>but WW1 and 2
Alliance out of necessity; America saw an opportunity for Britain to be indebted to them.

Churchill wasn't taken seriously in UK politics until 1940

Missing my point and moving the goalpost. The idea of American and British elites being "enemies as late as the 1930s" doesn't hold water.

Probably the 1960s unironically thanks to The Beatles. Before that the brits were too stuck up and believed they were still a world power. Afterwards they became best buds and worked together with America in just about everything.

1980s with Reagan and Thatcher. It was the first time politicians from each nation actually formed relationships based on their views on government rather than external forces squeezing them into a corner.
>19th century
People say America and the British empire patched things up after 1812 but that's not true. The US was steadily on track to surpass the British industrial sector. Especially as they expanded west into fertile land that could sustain the population to match their competition.
>early 20th century
As other said already it was purely an effort to preserve Britain mainly as a trade partner in order to maintain their economic advantage. America continued to cuck Britain during the Suez.
>>18004837
The British Invasion lasted less than 8 years and was quickly overtaken by American folk/rock music.

Post-American Civil War.

>>18004744
British elites infiltrated US high society during first half of the XX century. It's all started with Milner's Kindergarten and the idea to reform Empire into Imperial Federation. Then Lionel Curtis took the reign and decided to add US into the club.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round_Table_movement
>The Round Table movement, founded in 1909, was an association of organisations promoting closer union between Britain and its self-governing colonies.
>Georgetown University Professor and Council on Foreign Relations archivist Carroll Quigley published what he regarded as documented proof that the Round Table Group was the front for a secret society for a global conspiracy of control set up by Cecil Rhodes named the Society of the Elect to implement Rhodes's plan (detailed in his will) to unite all English-speaking nations, and further believed that the elite of the British Empire had an undue influence on the American elite.

The true redpill is realizing that everyone is enemies with everyone, even those within the same country are enemies.
There are no allies in this world as it is, while it is under the influence of Western culture especially so and the icons used to establish it.
>>
The real friendship emerged in World War II, which solidified into the postwar special relationship that continues today.

American history is defined by the northeast's complete reliance on england
