On the same extent and scale, razor.
which non-european nation invaded four other continents and suppressed the natives
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
dwindling their numbers down severely, or simply committing atrocities against them in order to advance their own wealth
They did oppress people in the regions they conquered
Not on the same scale
and like
I'm not saying there should be 'self-hatred' in europe or anything
"Not on the same scale" is the biggest fucking co-out ever and you know it
*cop out
if I have a bow and arrows or swords instead of rifles
just merely that europeans should own up to what they did, and why the economic/political imbalance exists presently
I'm going to be able to kill more people
do you get what I'm saying?
Do you get what I'm saying?
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
just like
be a person, y'know
The first thing that needs to be established before this conversation is to continue is why you'
you're crafting a cop-out
except I'm not?
"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?
Yes you are
I mean, China's growing in power, sure, yeah
They're mostly domestic corpses, even
>domestic corpses
Values is the incorrect term
The correct wording should be self pride
- you
anywho
What I'm trying to point out
is that you shouldn't be proud your nation killed a fuck ton of people
They put Muslims in concentration camps, but it's okay because they're within their borders @SilverLining
Right?
in fact, you shouldn't be proud
No, ofc not
I'm not defending these corpses at all
You implied that it wasn't as bad
Not really
Do you think that?
no
