@Vajrapani108 US committed ethnic cleansing by kicking the tribes off their land, not really obliterating them. Barring California anyway. Ethnic cleansing isn't even possible unless it's done to a small tribe or by a industrialized society. That being said, the Turks 100% ethnically cleansed Anatolia of its Greeks. It just happened in the 20th century instead of under the Ottomans. Genocide was surprisingly more common. China and Rome being some of it's earliest users.

Not even sure it's racism, but people memeing about the Natives getting blasted. People making fun of Mongol victims ain't racism. Did see like 3 racist comments though, so there's that.

Native Americans was from Asia, originally though after traversing the strait over Alaska, right?

Your response to other people being moralizing busybodies is to become a sociopath?

@SizzleCorndog Fine then. Any gloating of past conquests on another people then. Better?

@lordenvincar But you're just proving the other guy's point; the US smashed another nation and only lost 100k in 20 years. US failed to be sure, but such failures barely dented it outside of pride. And btw, those "disgusting tactics" were more humane than the Vietnamese tactics which killed more civilians in their warfare. Edit: Hell, the US is allied with Vietnam these days. US took an L, but in the big picture it really didn't matter, I guess.

@MrSponge56 Eh, that's just history. Be aware that your ancestors likely obliterated and destroyed another people/culture too, like everyone else. Clutching onto past grievances only leads to future conflict.

@MrSponge56 From what I've seen, most don't care. They just want their turn to be the oppressors.

@tlamatini4617 You act as if the Government can't do that with any land, including "first class citizen" land.

@comradekenobi6908 Modern day people bringing the evils of the 19th century to the 21st century. Or do you think nations today should emulate the worst of the 19th century? It won't end well for weak nations in that case.

@stevens1041 Fans of Mustache Man also note that he hated the US for being a mongrel nation, being "Jewish controlled", and for daring to let non-whites exist within society. No wonder the US smashed both the Germans and Japanese.

@comradekenobi6908 Why? You'd compound past atrocities with modern ones? Why do you intend to wish ill on people that didn't commit those crimes? Heck; why is it only the US that gets this treatment and nobody else? If the world had your way, there would be war everywhere again. Be better. Try not to emulate imperialists from the 18th century, yeah?

@comradekenobi6908 Gross. I ain't even white, and you are gross.

@comradekenobi6908 You do realize you can celebrate a people/culture/empire without trying to connect it to its atrocities, right? We can talk about China without talking about its penchant for culturally genociding its minority groups throughout its thousands of years, for example. Denying the terrible is wrong, of course. We have to talk about it to prevent us from doing it again; but they can be separate topics. But what you're doing isn't reflecting on it; it's just pure denial of the triumphs of civilizations. Which, yes, was based on the oppression of others. That's how empires worked.

@comradekenobi6908 I loathe imperialism. But it was the standard for the time, so dragging any country for it back in the day is like dragging the Chinese for the cultural genocide of the Nanban tribes. It happened. Can't do much about it, let alone be mean about it. That being said, every empire had their benefits and achievements; that includes the Russian Empire. Why wouldn't it? It doesn't change that empires are horrid things either way. The only time you can or should be slamming empires is if they happen in the modern era. Personally I'd place that at around the formation of the League of Nations; the first concerted attempt at international human rights. The British Empire, the US' colonization of the Philippines, the Soviet Union, Nazi Germany; whichever empire you want. It's no longer to talk about their accomplishments when their actions occurred at a time when national sovereignty was an international concept. But c'mon, it's kinda hard to say the same for the Egyptian Empire and their slavery of Hebrews or Libyans; they didn't have the concept around.

@comradekenobi6908 Nobody really cares. Whether White or Latino; the US will be the US.

@comradekenobi6908 Sorry bud, but the US being majority non-white ain't gonna change anything. US may even get more aggressive; I know plenty of Latinos who harbor wishes for the US to straight up annex Mexico to stop the mass migration at its southern border and stop the cartels -something which would cost millions of lives prolly. Sound good to you? All I'm saying is; wishing that will change nothing. Well, except show how gross you are as a person. One thing to celebrate old victories and histories, another to wish it on the modern day. Get help, seriously.

@comradekenobi6908 An attempt to do that will be met by a bunch of angry Nortenos and Caucasians and piles of Mexican bodies. Go rejoin Hitler in your insane imperialist fantasies in the next life. Nobody wants it here.
