This isn’t me picking on my European friends, just an actual question: how much did you learn about European colonialism in school?
I’d say we definitely did not learn about some of the worst things the USA has done, but seeing people talk online, thinking American expansionism is equivalent to the scale of 400 years of classic European colonialism, makes me think maybe they don’t learn much about it?
