You must not be very familiar with the impacts of colonialism then. Take your time and read these:

Equating the two is laughable. You are equating

  • conquest

  • the intentional destruction of a people's civilization/government

  • slavery

to

  • the people trying to escape said destruction/lingering impacts

  • the people moving to our nations for the hope of working for a better life, who have lower crime rates than the existing population, and are a net boon to the economy

It is beyond ridiculous, and a miscarriage of history.
