The history of Western imperialism is bookended by genocides: the genocide perpetrated by Columbus against the Taino people after 1492, and the current US-Israeli genocide against the people of Palestine. Plus countless more in between. 500+ years of barbarism and it must be stopped. - ThreadSky

It might noted that genocide is in no way restricted to Western imperialism, but is a common feature of many imperialist powers.

It's a dysfunctional culture and very little to do with genetics. Humanity has simply been hijacked by a minority of psychotic creeps who express the ethics of vikings and heroins dealers. No evolution required.

The history of mankind is bookended by genocides and wars. With the imminent collapse of the rule-based international order, there’ll be a lot more of them.

We need a truthful, honest, & comprehensive answer to this broad claim about all of mankind throughout all of history; there are certainly major exceptions to it that I've heard of - peaceful civilizations/societies in regions of plenty, of abundance.
