i agree not all, but the Han people have been using these techniques for thousands of years, very similar to Europeans. no culture or people have clean hands, that is just the human experience.

Han people assimilating nanyue in 200 BC isnt comparable to euro’s oppression and enslaved of most of the globe.

Yes my mother yelled at me once when I forgot to wash the dishes and Isntreal has been genociding Palestinians for more than 18 months. Not every one has clean hands.

Nordic pipeline.

You don't have to look to much into it. The US blew it up.

Noo, everyone does genocide, I swear! The Hans! It's just human nature bro!

What if I told you it's actually not normal and you are currently reckoning with the cognitive dissonance of being confronted with the fact that you're on Team Genocide?

No they haven't and China is an actual multiethnic country, not an ethnic supremacist country premised on settler colonial genocide like yours.

You wish Han were like white people because it means white supremacy has less guilt. This is itself a white supremacist way of thinking and you're told to believe in it to remain consenting to anti-China actions that are tajen by your vassal state.

no culture or people have clean hands, that is just the human experience.

Whataboutism, eh? Only yours is actually meant to ahistorically flatten the crimes of Eurocentric capitalism and falsely equate it to unspecified "Han" crimes. But I bet you couldn't even give a definition of "Han" without looking it up.
