Meanwhile, the imperialistic native Americans of my side of the Americas were conquering everything that moved left to right before the conquerors from the other side of the world did the same to them. Lol. Skill issue.

Imperialism: a policy of extending a country's power and influence through diplomacy or military force

I don't see how you build the Aztec Empire without it.

Imperialism: a policy of extending a country’s power and influence through diplomacy or military force

This is any state ever. Diplomacy or force are literally the only tools by which they can see to their interests. Seriously diplomacy? That's imperialism? Are you insane?

Is this communism@lemmy or neoliberal Wikipedia readers @lemmy? Colonialism is a prerequisite of imperialism. The aztecs weren't great, but they definitely weren't imperialist.
