America is genocidal, sure, but so is every single other society in the history of civilization. America is exceptional because of the technology and the art it contributed to genocide, which is the goal of every civiliztion, remember. Pointing out the difference in scale of US atrocities just prevents us working together for greater justice.

You said you’re American and are aware that this country was built on genocide. Then you said every major civilization has committed genocide (equivocating, but that’s beside the point of my question). What genocides have India and China committed?
Follow-on question, what genocides were Indian and Chinese civilizations built on? What about Persian civilization?
The Naga-Kuki war (1660-1948) The Maratha-Mughal wars (1680-1707)
China’s history is filled with Dynastic tyranny— each associated with brutal, repressive military conflicts.
Not sure where you are heading with that.
Like I said, collapsing historical continuity past the point of logical coherence
Also blatantly ignoring the fact Chinese and Indian civilization were not built on the basis of those wars and the fact the states that prosecuted those wars no longer exist
The US state on the otherhand maintains a legal and poltical continuity all the way back to 1776 and continues to inflict atrocities based on the sociopolitical economic logic of its founding
Also I love how you obviously just googled random wars from Indian and Chinese history as if that means something, kid log off and go do your homework
And you seem perfectly willing to completely disregard those wars, oppression, and tyranny because it doesn’t service the narrative that… what? That no country has ever been as horrible as the United States? Really?
