America is genocidal, sure, but so is every single other society in the history of civilization. America is exceptional because of the technology and the art it contributed to genocide, which is the goal of every civiliztion, remember. Pointing out the difference in scale of US atrocities just prevents us working together for greater justice.

Capitalist realism but for the past as well. Fucking bleak position to be unaware that not all of human history is just genocide and mass slaughter
