Normgroid discourse commonly refers to the US as "stolen land", likewise Canada, Australia and NZ where they now have land acknowledgments.
Even the Falklands are described by Argentinians as stolen by "Anglo pirates", yet even though Argentina itself was a Spanish colonial project nobody calls it "stolen".
Come to think of it, while invasions and conquests were present everywhere it seems like no piece of land on Earth is regarded by Big Normie as "stolen" except for the Anglo colonies. Why is this? Why is conquest "theft" only when the Anglo does it?
The only counterexample I can think of is Israel, yet even that is blamed on the British Empire.

i'm pretty sure spanish libs would call latin america stolen land
hispanics on the other hand are on a mountain of cope about them akshually being indigenous because their spanish greatgrandpa raped an injun girl once

Because it is usually in the context of some long subjugation by the Anglo. The Zulu may have invaded the Xhosa, the Maratha the Mughals, the Iroquois the Huron, but all would fall under Anglo dominion.

It is usually also in the context of pushing DEI and open border migration or in the case of Argentina meme revanchism and push to gain south Atlantic oil fields. Basically when you have malicious intent towards white British people you bring up colonialism, even though the British people voted for socialists in 1945, voluntarily decolonized and became the most cuckolded group in history even tolerating pakistani rape gangs out of fear of causing "islamophobia", it doesn't suit their narrative, since these are the same people whose rights they intend to violate.

'Stolen' because their ancestral traditions & connections + native religions of their lands were genocided/replaced with a dogmatic Judeo-Christian machine.

The Abrahamic traditions systematically demonize the civilizations from which they most directly borrowed. Any gratitude owed to the source civilizations is converted into hostility, and the hostility is converted into scriptural commandments for their destruction.

Egypt, whose wisdom literature shaped the biblical book of Proverbs (the so-called "Words of Amenemope" are directly paralleled in Proverbs 22:17-24:22), is presented as the land of cruel oppressors.

Canaan, whose alphabet the Hebrew Bible itself was written in and whose deity El became the God of the Patriarchs, is presented as a nation of depraved abominations deserving extermination.

Greece, whose philosophy Philo and the Church Fathers absorbed wholesale to construct their theology, was later condemned by that same Church as a source of demonic knowledge.

Rome, whose legal and administrative structures the Catholic Church copied to organize itself, is presented in Christian apocalyptic as the city of Antichrist.

>absorb everything useful from the neighbor, then project onto the neighbor the image of a devil to be overcome
This is the absence of anything spiritual. The rabbis, imams, and priests are, in most cases, not malicious men. They are men inside the machine.

Every Abrahamic scripture is, demonstrably, a human document composed and edited and redacted across centuries by human authors. These traditions and belief systems were forced on to the world through military conquest & political subversion, not "by gods will" which is just political propaganda disguised as theology.

The only reason we call American land "stolen" is because, by America's own legal logic, they stole it. Remember, the Americans signed treaties with the Native Americans and then would eventually go on to break that very same treaty they signed with zero sound legal justification, they just did it because they wanted to. This is an actual legal thing.

To put into context, other wars of conquest don't end with, say, the Romans signing a treaty with the Gauls that they won't invade the rest of Gaul, only to break it 10 years later. The Mongols didn't sign a treaty with the Song that they wouldn't invade Song, only to break that later. Only the Americans did this. That's why American land is stolen. If you see someone using the word "stolen" in any other context, they're an idiot who doesn't understand why historians use certain terms. If America really didn't want to conquer the land, they should have just done it the good old-fashioned way and waged total war without mercy.

Simple, only white people let their women vote and have a serious say. You noticed this wasn't a thing till women started working and often going into teaching. Schools have fallen once women started strong arming their way in it as the main group. (The government help with that.)

but what is morally different from

1. threatening that you will rape someone before you do
2. raping someone all of a sudden without warning
3. saying you won’t rape someone but than you do

in the end you still raped

This whole blood libel is just disgusting. There have been so many instances of Indians breaking treaties and the excuses are always the same:
>our leadership was decentralized so if some of us broke it it still doesn't count
>the american response to us breaking treaties was "disporportionate" which means they're still the bad guys
Cry me a river, loser.

Nope, the Latinx cope is that akshually Spain had viceroyalties and all the races lived in harmony until los Anglos Nordcvckos ruined la Hispanidad o algo

‘Settlers’ the book which came up with this idea, was written by the CIA to fracture the left along racial lines, native/ Hispanic vs whites - so they wouldn’t work together and Marxism would be fractured to a hundred pieces or more. You all fell for it too because youre idiots.

Instead the Romans searched for any flimsy pretext to invade you and sell you into slavery and the mongols butchered your family and annihilated your village because the king you pay taxes to killed a mongol ambassador. The whole "if you're gonna conquer at least be heckin wholesome and honest about it!" line is bullshit to cover up your selective hateboner for the American destruction of the Indians.

The Dutch Afrikaners were accused of stealing South Africa from the natives. This justified their oppression under the current SA government.
Prussia (when it existed) was accused of being stolen land rightfully belonging to the Slavic peoples. This justified the ethnic cleansing of Germans from the region.
So it isn't only Anglo countries that get this accusation. Rather, Anglos chose to align themselves with multiracial American plutocracy and are now reaping the reward for said alliance.
No one cares about Argentina because both the Spanish and the Natives are two shades of brown

Because this is an culturally American idea that originated in America, it's spread throughout the Anglosphere as a result of shared language, but not really much further. People naturally care more about and focus more on their own country than elsewhere (even when they might refuse to admit as much) hence you get more Americans complaining about America and Australians complaining about Australia, than these same people complaining about the Spanish conquest of Mexico or Peru (which does definitely happens, though to a far smaller extent)
The Spanish speaking world, and elsewhere, on the other hand has never really adopted this idea, at least not to the same extent. Yes you see many non-anglos using this idea of stolen land against America or elsewhere in the English speaking world, but this is a result of them already disliking America and parroting a complaint they've heard, not any actual thought or contemplation on why it might be bad and where else it'd apply.
>>18691348
This is true and may have something to do with how and why the idea originated, but it isn't particularly related to it in it's present form, it's not like people complaining believe white people in Boston is perfectly fine while white people in Oklahoma is evil.

Because the British Empire actually was a racially-supremacist settler-colonial power?
Compare it to your two main allies:
>America
Multiracial capitalist 'land of the free.' Basically a glorified economic zone
>France
Multiracial empire driven by linguistic unity, civic nationalism, and not much else

These are who you picked to align yourself with. If you have buyer's remorse then engage in introspection
