  • Also, its good to note that this largest genocide and colonial project in history, took place under representative liberal/bourgeios democracy.

    The fascists could only aspire, and fail to recreate, what the “democracies” of the US, UK, Canada, Australia, and western europe acheived. Yet for some reason you never hear people in these countries express their fear of “becoming a liberal democracy”.

    These people love their system, praise it as superior to others, and fear the anti-colonial world that creates alternatives that exist outside of it, and challenge it.

    There are only a few good answers below that even obliquely reference historical materialism, how colonialism is related to different modes of production, the defining features of the columbian era of euro-american capitalist-colonialism, and its connections to race. You’ll likely get much better answers if you cross post this to lemmygrad or hexbear.
