Honestly sounds insane. This is textbook psychological projection.
Which is not to say US/Euro culture doesn't have a shocking history of genocide and organised exploitation which is underplayed - and continuing.
But the difference is in effectiveness, not in ethics. You can find similar atrocities in most human cultures.
For very complex historical and cultural reasons - not obviously associated with skin colour - US/Euro culture became more efficient and effective at practical sociopathy. There's an expansionary/missionary trend which is somewhat unusual.
But that's an adjunct to the sociopathy, which operates at normal human levels. It makes it more dangerous in practice but it's certainly not exceptionally strange.
