  It’s only true of every “country” because the global system of statehood was violently imposed by the genocidal.

  For example, the actual culprit is not like the DRC but the scumbags who’s been attacking the DRC for centuries.

  What the US did to the indigenous population was uniquely horrible. And while it may have echoes in other places throughout history, it was certainly not normal, average, or mundane.

    sobs in Tibetan, Balkan, Jewish, Slavic, Circassian, Tutsi, Finnish, Irish, Uyghur, and everyone who ever lived near the Mongols

    While it’s a fucked up sort of comforting to think genocide is a single nation’s “quirk”, it’s distressing depressingly common throughout history. It’s happened constantly, and is ** LITERALLY happening now**, in Gaza, Xinjiang, Sudan, Ukraine, and Myanmar.

      Yes by the same scumbags that you’re trying to “contextualize”. Gross.

      Those nations and cultures that are still here? You’re comparing them to the 1,000 nations completely wiped from history that you can’t even name? Gods, I wish you knew their cultures and histories 1/1000000000th as well as the Jews.

      I guess it’s comforting to think that what happened was common.

        Sorry the above genocides aren’t good enough for you. I’ll be more discerning next time you bring it up unprompted in a shitpost comm.
