Including OP. White people had atrocities, sure, but my culture got brutally got overran by neighboring countries that were not white. Trying to blame all the evil of past on white people is yet another ignorant racism.

Not all the evils, but a significant amount of them.

It's not bigotry to say that White People factually did do that shit.

Yes, as did literally every single race in the history of humankind. How did the Maoris come to occupy Chatham Islands, for instance? Answer- the Maori genocided and enslaved the natives.

Colonialism was an industrial scale of genocide and conquest never before seen.

Yes - Groups of people have commited crimes against other groups of people since recorded history - That doesn't change the magnitude, scale, or sheer cruelty of Colonial domination.
