This whole "colonization" narrative is just absurd. Right now, in non-white majority countries, women are being raped, married off as children, sold into sexual slavery, taken as war spoils, denied education, credit, property, the vote, the right to drive, the right to even leave the house without a male relative.

And they have been since time immemorial, so to blame European colonization for all the world's ills is just not based in any kind of fact and will no doubt further add to the deliberately inflammatory rhetoric surrounding race.

The ultra-rich want us at each others throats so we won't turn on them. Whoever is behind the colonization narrative is doing their bidding, but we are responsible if we fall for it and let it divide us.
