It hasn't stopped to this day. The policies have stayed the same. Settlers came with the goal of eradication of the native population, and that's what's been happening from the start to this very day.

55 million Native Americans died as a result of a systemic genocide by any means necessary, including intentional biological warfare. This is a pretty well documented historic fact. Here are a couple of more examples for you:

That's so adorable, wait till you find out that industrial espionage happens in the west all the time. Meanwhile, here's something you can seethe and cope over

Whenever you sealion into a thread, I provide you with sources and references and then you ignore those and continue trolling. The fact that you spend this much time following me around is kind of hilarious though. I love living rent free in your head. 😂

Imagine trying to paint parallels between Taiwan and Palestine. 🤦

It's pretty common troll tactic to claim to want information on something that's well documented. What specifically do you want a source regarding, how US poured millions into Taiwanese media via orgs like NED, or how US grooms DPP politicians, or how US based orgs help write school curriculum?

Whatever helps you cope I suppose. Working at a troll farm must be pretty demoralizing.

I see you've made a self referential comment.

That's just false. This was done with conscious intent, and this is actually documented. For example, Amherst said in a letter to Bouquet that 'This is a good idea to spread smallpox just be careful you don't get it yourself, You will do well to try to inoculate the Indians by means of blankets, as well as to try every other method that can serve to extirpate this execrable race.'

The text of Amherst's letter reads;

"You will do well to try to inoculate the Indians by means of blankets, as well as to try every other method that can serve to extirpate this execrable race. I should be very glad your scheme for hunting them down by dogs could take effect, but England is at too great a distance to think of that at present," wrote Amherst in a 1763 letter.

d'Errico wrote in his study of Amherst that "None of these other letters show a deranged mind or an obsession with cruelty." Amherst's "venom" was only directed at Indigenous peoples, he added.

The fact that you can't even figure out how to google basic publicly available information explains quite a bit about your comment history.

Go read up on some history and learn a bit about history of what US has been doing in Taiwan instead of making a 🤡 of yourself in public.
