Uganda be kidding me with that joke.
I mean, to be fair, they wiped a high enough percentage of the locals in NA off the map that your meme is about stamps and sugar instead of the genocide that happened.

The people who mad about tea and sugar are not the same as the genocided ones.
“Discover” “new” land, kill everyone who lives there.
Standard operating procedure really.
Actually, usually we are doing the clenched hands meme with the center being hating the British.
