My biggest issue with the counterargument is that requires us to ignore everything that happened in the world prior to colonialism and view that era in a vacuum.
Its an argument based in ignorance. The Ancient Egyptians set up an entire system based on ethnicity with four distinct groups - Nubians, Egyptians, Asiatics, and Libyians - and chastised one another based on skin tone. The lighter skinned Egyptians declared the Libyans and Nubians to be the "evil
dark skinned people of Ish."

i don't know why we try to do that. i think it has something to do with avoiding how terrible mankind used to be. we're just not comfortable viewing them in that way and we would rather make our contemporary selves feel guilty for much more minor transgressions
