I know. Colonialism is rhe evilest evil that ever happened and was done by awful white men to the poor bereft people of color. Because the Ottoman Empire never happened. Japan never did a thing. And China doesn't exist as it does without some expansionist practices of its own. Add to the fact that some cultures that were colonized had done horrible things and were deeply misogynistic and homophobic. But mo. All evilscwere wrought by colonialism
