    Even as a joke, countries ruined by colonial interference shouldn’t be counted.

      The Clovis people would love to enter the chat, but they were totally massacred in a genocide.

        Fair point, my choice of wording wasn’t precise. But comparing indigenous peoples would be even more complicated.

      I mean if we’re lightly joking about countries, there isn’t a single one where you can’t dig into it’s history and find some day-ruining atrocity.

        “Day-ruining,” seriously? Try comparing apples to apples.

            I only asked you to think twice about punching down, dude. Go ahead and block me if you think that’s “trolling.”

            If I see someone saying harmful things (whether they realize it or not) about misunderstood people that don’t deserve to be made fun of, I’m going to comment (unless it’s obvious bait).
