    I didn’t label european exploration as exploitation, polinesians did it too, like to colombia in the 13th century probably. I have said america to mean the continent, this includes south and central america, as in latin america “america” means the whole stretching land, not north america as people in the US and Canada think. They exploited and stole from us, they exploited us for too long.

    Edit: I’m talking about the colonization, exploitation, slavery (taking people from this land and from africa to work on plantations, factories, etc), land stealing, etc, that only comes from literally war. This happened from the Indian continent, to Africa, to here (in Suriname, Guiana, Africa, etc, there is a lot of people from the Indian subcontinent, because they were brought as slaves from the Indian subcontinent).
