That's a terrible comparison.
Belorussian, Ukrainian and Russian people are ethnically and historically almost indistinguishable. Their main qualms are with cultural distinctions and relatively recent history (which is totally fair, and does not give the right for any of them to forcefully integrate/annex the others).
WASPs and Native Americans are ethnically, culturally and historically completely distinct peoples.
The American/Canadian example is almost a perfect 1:1 example.
- snowpid 2y agoThey have never been an attempt to force Canadians to become Americans by killing them or occupying them. This is the reason why it is a bad example.
- deaddodo 2y agoThe War of 1812 could easily be considered such. It's a moot point anyways, no one was discussing war. You decided to bring that up as some sort of virtue signal. It has nothing to do with cultural similarities.
