Most older nations have

That comes across as defending genocide

Why would you think I'm defending it? I'm literally admitting we did exactly that? Where the hell am I defending it?

Its a common talking point that "Everyone else did it, so it's fine we did it to".

But that's not what I said AT ALL I acknowledged we did it a shit load, listed examples and noted that it was a common thing... Because it was.

I offered no defense, because I don't need one, and I offer no apology either, and this is history anyone can fact check... I am not upset about any of it and I don't feel I have to "defend" anything. Yes we did that, a whole bunch, so much so that a lot of the world speaks our language... Fuck me the Internet is bizzare now, have I blown all of your minds so much by agreeing?
