#1 Actullay whatever the real motivations behind the XIXth century colonization it was sold to public opinion as intended to protect Blacks against all too real Muslim slave-taking raids. Colonial troops had many fights with slave-takers. That is another "Inconvenient Truth" for the philo-islamic left.

#2 About the Aztecs. Cortez never had more than one thousand men with him. Fra too few to encircle Tenocthtitlan's (aka Mexico City) lake, let alone provide reasonable security to his communication lines. This was provided by thousands of Tlazcaltecs thirsty of Aztec blood after seeing many of their brethren sacrified on Astec altars. Actually Aztec prisoners had to be guarded by Spaniards in order to prevent them fro being killed and eaten.

That is another "Inconvient Truth"TM

#3 Of course when the colony is one of Eastern European territories labeled "Peoples Democratic Republic of" or an ancient vassal state like ~~North Korea~~ Goguryeo, it's not 'colonialism'. Cause when the Left does it, it's not colonialism, it's just 'collectivism' on the large scale.

#4 Might be prudent to show some concern over another type of colonialism.

#5 Might be helpful to show a before and after, and then another after. slideshow of all these Colonial hellholes that they've become. Roads, not pony paths and tracks, food, not groundnuts, and clothes! These days unicorns grow on trees....

#6 About the Aztecs. Cortez never had more than one thousand men with him. You have to give the Aztecs credit for inventing Mexican food. They made it out of REAL Mexicans.

#7 human history has been stained by man's continual use of brutal violence to acquire land and resources and destroy or replace those possessing them
Yup. That's been true for all human tribes, ever since the beginning. Political correctness now uses terms like "colonialism" and "imperialism" as a sledgehammer to knock down their opponents and to gain POWER.

#8 the victims such fine discriminations are irrelevant. When my NA relatives start beefing about this subject, I tell them the land was stolen fair and square, and, like Gandalf, ask them what they intend to do with their time remaining.
