>>17688650>for some reason seen as illegitimate compared to the conquests of old.Because we colonized places with very low average IQs and liberals are stupid enough to think the impoverishment of these people today is a result of colonialism rather than the natives being stupid boneheads. They are so unintelligent, so incapable, that whites just cannot fathom it and thus try to tack on post hoc explanations. But no magic spells were cast and the morons we colonized are just as stupid today as they were 1000 years ago.
