Yeah and white people have also done that while having teeth so clearly that means we need to knock out all our teeth.
The state has been used to persecute and exploit people because it is an effective means of wielding power, so virtually everyone everywhere uses it, if they can. There’s just this silly martyr complex where people would rather lose and get themselves killed in practice, so that they can remain pure in their ideals. I suppose it’s useful for winning arguments. Not so much at actually achieving anything.
Very disingenuous of you to not recognize white people wielding the state have persecuted indigenous people all over the world.

Show me a state that’s never persecuted people.
That’s an impossible standard, and doesn’t really have anything to do with anything. I’m not interested in impractical moral perfectionism.
Damn I was really hoping you’d prove me wrong.
And I was hoping you’d ground your views in reality.
