Don’t worry, they condemn the destruction of Native American cultures, too! Whatabouterismy and all that jazz. After the West destroys the PRC, then liberals and lefty noobs will get to work on repairing Native American life. It’ll come eventually, don’t worry! Just be really, really, really patient (and I mean really patient).
Of course, not with Native input. We don't want anything too extreme. Land back? But we've already built a wal-mart here!
i’d like to make a counterpoint actually about leftists (not usual libs) purportedly believing this. largely i’ve observed (and been of the similar tendency in the past) that most leftists that are non-MLs (say, some self identified anarchocommunists in the west, i have little to no desire to litigate with you anarchism and what is REAL anarchism, that’s not my forte nor do i care a lick in this instance since i’m referring to anyone that self-identifies which is a massive range) do in fact argue that both situations should be typified as cultural genocide. many leftists do in fact interact with ideas about decolonialism then use cultural genocide as atrocity propaganda against AES.
this is out of what i speculate is pure incredulity at the idea that a state/society can interact with an indigenous group with anything else apart from annihilation or exploitation as a goal, a type of absolutism typical with most non-ML communists’ perception of power.
the ussr, for example, has been decried as genociding its minority groups/smaller states (with things like the holodomor, at my stupid bougie school we were fed this idea about poland, you start to understand why the poles act as they do), china has fended off multiple of these allegations (xizang, then xinjiang), russia has a lot of decolonial language tossed its way even though that analysis doesn’t really work usually. it’s basically them swinging very far in the ‘left’ direction for their analysis, often because their analysis of decolonialism (and often imperialism) is, of course, idealist and not grounded in materialism, only identified as the exertion of control.
yankees cannot comprehend a truly multiethnic society is what i’ve learned and as such must say all states that have existed with multiethnic societies are fake
han supremacy must be a systemic thing to the extent of the usa, because an honestly superior state to the usa cannot exist in any field, it’s beyond my credulity, everything is a settler colonial state to me because an alternative cannot exist. jones manoel’s quote about western revolutionary fetish for defeat comes to mind once more
Classic european civilizing the barbarian mindset is the bedrock of western media ecosystem.

"As revolutionaries, we don't have the right to say that we're tired of explaining. We must never stop explaining. We also know that when the people understand, they cannot but follow us. In any case, we, the people, have no enemies when it comes to peoples. Our only enemies are the imperialist regimes and organizations." Thomas Sankara, 1985
