can you tell me which non-european nation

2018-09-08 23:13:21 UTC  

I'm going to wait for it

2018-09-08 23:13:25 UTC  

well, sure, genocide too, go for that

2018-09-08 23:13:26 UTC  

Here it comes

2018-09-08 23:13:30 UTC  

it's coming

2018-09-08 23:13:43 UTC  

>muh colonialism

2018-09-08 23:13:44 UTC  

is next

2018-09-08 23:13:46 UTC  

... can you maybe not?

2018-09-08 23:14:11 UTC  

Well you're about to say something retarded, I'm only helping you in avoiding the embarrassment @SilverLining

2018-09-08 23:14:14 UTC  

You should be thanking me

2018-09-08 23:14:21 UTC  

anyhow, I was going to discuss the brutality of imperialism

2018-09-08 23:14:25 UTC  

I was right

2018-09-08 23:14:31 UTC  

and that proves?

2018-09-08 23:14:38 UTC  

I could point out you saying "But ottomans, moth!"

2018-09-08 23:14:41 UTC  

and that'd mean nothing

2018-09-08 23:14:46 UTC  

Nothing, it just paints a picture of what kind of person you are in my head

2018-09-08 23:14:53 UTC  

(even though the ottomans actually were pretty benevolent under the millet system)

2018-09-08 23:14:58 UTC  

okay, so your point against that is?

2018-09-08 23:15:04 UTC  

also, it's not really anti-european to point that out

2018-09-08 23:15:12 UTC  

it's just pointing out a historical truth

2018-09-08 23:15:20 UTC  

@SilverLining Japan for one

2018-09-08 23:15:21 UTC  

if any other ethnicity were in europe, then yes, they'd do the same thing

2018-09-08 23:15:22 UTC  

China

2018-09-08 23:15:28 UTC  

Vietnam

2018-09-08 23:15:29 UTC  

Japan modeled its government off of European states

2018-09-08 23:15:34 UTC  

Vietnam to this day oppresses ethnic minorities

2018-09-08 23:15:52 UTC  

As do most countries, actually

2018-09-08 23:15:53 UTC  

and I'm not justifying that?

2018-09-08 23:16:01 UTC  

>can you tell me which non-european nation

2018-09-08 23:16:07 UTC  

>Wow dude, you're such an idiot for proving me wrong

2018-09-08 23:16:12 UTC  

On the same extent and scale, razor.

2018-09-08 23:16:29 UTC  

which non-european nation invaded four other continents and suppressed the natives

2018-09-08 23:16:57 UTC  

That's a bit of a cop-out. Vietnam was not as advanced as Europe technologically speaking.

But they did the same thing you're mentioning now

2018-09-08 23:17:01 UTC  

dwindling their numbers down severely, or simply committing atrocities against them in order to advance their own wealth

2018-09-08 23:17:04 UTC  

They did oppress people in the regions they conquered

2018-09-08 23:17:06 UTC  

Not on the same scale

2018-09-08 23:17:08 UTC  

and like

2018-09-08 23:17:18 UTC  

I'm not saying there should be 'self-hatred' in europe or anything

2018-09-08 23:17:19 UTC  

"Not on the same scale" is the biggest fucking co-out ever and you know it

2018-09-08 23:17:23 UTC  

*cop out

2018-09-08 23:17:30 UTC  

if I have a bow and arrows or swords instead of rifles
