Re:British colonialism killed 100M Indians in 40 years by Blackstrat on Tuesday December 13, 2022 @11:37PM (#33980046)
Do we exempt the Portuguese, the Egyptians, the Mongols, the Japanese, and so forth? The belief that colonialism is a manifestation of white supremacy is historically uninformed. Did Native Americans suffer at the hands of the European expansion. Certainly, but recognize that the Spanish and the Portuguese both preceded the British. Were the Native Americans peaceful, pastoral peoples prior to the Europeans? Not a chance. History is replete with all nationalities and races subjugating and enslaving others. It is not a British thing or a white thing. That’s simply a modern argument to promote a political agenda.
