Why do people act like only whites practiced colonialism/imperialism? The Arabian Empire, Ottoman Empire, Chinese Empire, Japanese Empire etc. all committed horrific atrocities and likely still would be doing so today if they hadn't been destroyed. Hell, the Ottomans literally committed a genocide during the last dying days of their empire out of pure spite and Turks still deny it to this day without any sanction.
Because “colonialism” as a concept is just a cudgel to beat white people with

>>18582991The Ottoman Empire was the world's first anti-fascist organization.
>>18582991Whites feel bad and apologize for colonialism, Arabs and Turks consider their periods of conquest to be things worth celebrating. The flaw is in self-hating Whites, not in the rest of the world.
>>18582991sorry sweaty only white people are evil

>>18583068finna boutta get 'anti-fascist' in that teen kocek's bussy...
Sorry brown greek trannies, but the castration and religious massacres will stop.
>>18582991There's a lot of Western biases, like there's the Taungoo empire:* Colonized Manipur, Laos, Thailand, Cambodia and parts of China*Made them Theravada Buddhist and forced their religion on them* Built a racial hierarchy with Burmans are the top* Apparently every Burmese dynasty is like this where there's a racial hierachy with Burmans at the top and non-Burmans at the bottom, mirroring colonalism to a T (lasted for centuries on end)There's no heckin colonalism here! Just conquest!
>>18582991Because colonialism in the academic sense of the word is a specific phenomenon with a very specific meaning understood to not have existed at all in any place on earth until the 16th century, not just a fancy word for conquest. Of those, only the japanese and late ottoman empires were ever colonial.
>>18582991>why western countries school focus on western history
>>18586081Do Turkish and Japanese schools engage in moralistic self-flagellation over their empires?
>>18586136They deny their crimes, which is different form saying that the crimes happend and it was a good thing, but most of the countries, including USA and most of Europe usually don't teach about crimes that were commited by their nations, it's usually /pol/pedophiles fantasies that they do
>>18586252>but most of the countries, including USA and most of Europe usually don't teach about crimes that were commited by their nationsLmao what
>>18586254you can't read?
>>18586136Yes, you just dont like it Also turks in charge of school programs are white anyway
What’s weird is even though US government schools spend 75% of the year talking about the Indian “genocide” and slavery, they never mention the negro slaves the Cherokee brought with them on the trail of tears. Weird!
>>18586622>genocide is le good because Cherokee brought slaves or something you're braindead
>>18586599>>18586612Westfags literally do teach about crimes committed by their nations though.
>>18586136The Japanese are in fact told to feel bad about people like the Ainu in school yes.
>>18587089they lament the dwindling of the ainu because they hate that they are more like the flat faced chinese. they think if it wasn't for the ancient korean/chinese migrations they would look more like the jomon, but they wouldn't even exist if it weren't for the koreans/chinese.japanese don't know about how evil they were throughout asia-pacific.
>>18586252>>18586254They absolutely did teach us about shit like the Trail of Tears and how Columbus was a heckin evil monster back when I was in school lol.
>>18587002>>18587928every nation teach about their crimes, unless it's some super nationalistic brainwashing dictature like N Korea
