The EU is as guilty as the US. It participated in Afghanistan, Iraq, the bombing of Libya, the one of Yugoslavia, and European countries maintain neocolonial relations with the global south, whose people and resources they exploit.
France, the country that in the 1960s murdered a million Algerians who wanted independence, right now upholds the CFA in 14 countries in Africa, meaning these 14 countries have no monetary sovereignty and their central banks are located in Paris. To maintain these schemes, France has troops stationed in Africa, ensuring that only governments loyal to the desires of France get “protection”.
Many African independence and democracy activists have been murdered by EU plots to maintain the neocolonial schemes in their countries. All of the EU countries have maintained full economic and diplomatic relations with Israel during the ongoing genocide, and some like Estonia have gone as far as opening their first Israeli embassy a few months ago.
You can find skeletons everywhere. The idea that Europe is the worst on the basis of what you list as one country having what looks footnote like compared to for instance, the USA or China, is bizarre. Seems like hyper focus on their faults due to being partial to the others.
Its clear you aren’t trying to have an honest discussion given that my comment was completely within context as a comparison to other entities which you had to deliberately remove to make your current statement.
I did not have to remove it in fact. Comparing European Colonialism and Neocolonialism in the last 70 years to anything China has done in the past 70 years and saying it’s a footnote, is ridiculous
I could see some arguments for the US, (and even those are likely to be short sighted and naive), but the EU?

If “European neocolonialism” is a footnote to you, you’re not rational and the discussion is pointless.
