    Do you honestly believe it is logical to equate colonialism to immigration?

        You must not be very familiar with the impacts of colonialism then. Take your time and read these:

        https://www.currentaffairs.org/2017/09/a-quick-reminder-of-why-colonialism-was-bad

        https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/current-affairs-magazine/

        https://plato.stanford.edu/Entries/Colonialism/

        Equating the two is laughable. You are equating

        • conquest

        • the intentional destruction of a people’s civilization/government

        • slavery

        to

        • the people trying to escape said destruction/lingering impacts

        • the people moving to our nations for the hope of working for a better life, who have lower crime rates than the existing population, and are a net boon to the economy

        It is beyond ridiculous, and a miscarriage of history.

        Because colonizer is an edge lord word.

        They’re for all intents the same. Ask the native Americans if there was a difference between the colonizers and when we formed a nation with immigrants

              It’s really inspiring that you’re resorting to insults immediately after becoming a mod.

                    I am civil. Last time I am asking, can you answer the question or not?
