This is always the type of shit imperialists say.

China and Tankies use this defense when defending the conquest of Tibet.

American fascists use this to defend American slavery and the genocide of the Native Americans.

Many European fascists and racists use this when discussing the Scramble for Africa

Sadly 8% is still far too high a number
