Those numbers are more or less accurate, here is a source for just Indians alone: https://geopoliticaleconomy.com/2022/12/12/britain-100-million-india-deaths-colonialism/
45 trillion in stolen wealth and 165 million dead Indians in 40 years.
I wait your source on how the British helped pave the way for 1 billion people afterwards, even though that still would not justify murdering 165 million Indians.
Regarding your points on theft and wealth, while you're correct that most of the wealth went to the powerful elite, the subjects still got a slice of the pie, however small that might be.
If I'm the inhabitant of a town that is home to bank robbers and own a jewelery store that the robbers spend their money at, I still benefit from their crimes.
Also, this whole "communist vs capitalist" rhetoric doesn't really work when you have laws against robbery in your own country. The police or the victims of a robbery are not "communist" for demanding retribution and restitution for the robbery that was committed against them. Lol, get the fuck outta here with that first year freshmen bullshit.
"OH, so I have to go to jail for robbing those people? What is this, the USSR?"
