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

2018-09-08 23:17:34 UTC  

just merely that europeans should own up to what they did, and why the economic/political imbalance exists presently

2018-09-08 23:17:36 UTC  

I'm going to be able to kill more people

2018-09-08 23:17:40 UTC  

do you get what I'm saying?

2018-09-08 23:17:48 UTC  

Do you get what I'm saying?

2018-09-08 23:18:17 UTC  

Essentially, I'm trying to say that Europe's current position of power was built on a fuck ton of corpses, and that it's not really something to be proud of

2018-09-08 23:18:19 UTC  

just like

2018-09-08 23:18:22 UTC  

be a person, y'know

2018-09-08 23:18:25 UTC  

The first thing that needs to be established before this conversation is to continue is why you'

2018-09-08 23:18:30 UTC  

you're crafting a cop-out

2018-09-08 23:18:33 UTC  

You're not powerful because you belong to a particular race

2018-09-08 23:18:38 UTC  

except I'm not?

2018-09-08 23:19:09 UTC  

"Europe's current position of power was built on a fuck ton of corpses"

Do you think China's position of power isn't built on a fuckton of corpses?

2018-09-08 23:19:23 UTC  

Yes you are

2018-09-08 23:19:24 UTC  

I mean, China's growing in power, sure, yeah

2018-09-08 23:19:32 UTC  

They're mostly domestic corpses, even

2018-09-08 23:19:42 UTC  

>domestic corpses

2018-09-08 23:19:52 UTC  

Values is the incorrect term
The correct wording should be self pride

2018-09-08 23:19:54 UTC
