Not even remotely close to what I said.
Feels like you are finally admitting to the imperialism at least
Not even remotely close to what I said.
“States existing” is neither imperialism nor colonialism lmao.

Did modern day switzerland (post ww2 seems like a good line but I’m open on this) draw a random ass claim on parts of France and fill the river with skeletons? That’s certainly not in any history book I’ve ever seen

Moving the goalposts. What you said was:
“Switzerland” is just some lines drawn on a map enforced via violence. So is “France.” So is literally every country.
Why would the line have to include territory that was part of another country? That’s not what you said, nor is it what China did.
As I said, Tibet had already been a part of China for 200 years. It broke away much like the Confederacy broke away from the US, and like the US, China reasserted control and freed the people from slavery.

And we’ve looped right back round to the pro-colonalism logic. Cool cool
Anyway thanks for the several hours of entertainment. I also find the lengths authoritarian go to to justify their preffered state’s actions. Very similar to the logic that anti-vaxxers and flat earthers use. Hubris about the same as an anti-vaxxer. You truly made this train ride a little fast.
May your boot be firmly lodged 🖖

May you someday get over the loss of your favorite slavers.
