        China and Russia are colonial powers, too.

        Crazy how tankies think it’s only ok if you do it to your neighbours.

          To be fair, China does it all over, especially in Africa. Russia probably would too if they could.

            I don’t know if you just don’t know how conversations work, but it follows pretty reasonably. It didn’t come from no where. First someone complained about “the west” doing colonialism. Then someone corrected that all major powers do it. Finally someone points out that tankies only complain about “the west” and never China or Russia who do the same things.
