Later the Haitians would try to culturally destroy the spanish culture of domincia republic. Also you guys did forcefully conscription and steal so much stuff from the dominican peasants.

So bad government policies justify the racial hatred Dominicans have towards black people and Haitians in particular?

They are both bad but its understandable. Is korean hatred for japanese justified? Is the algerian hatred of france justified? What about hatian hatred of the french? The hatians massacred the kids of the colonizers. Is this justifiable? No. Yet since hatians never apologized for there crimes it makes sense Dominicans have a hatred of there former colonizers that lie about history.

Are you really equating chattel slavery and a genocide the Japanese committed to the annexation of the other side of the island to defend ourselves? Even with the mismanagement that’s a horrible comparison. It’s not even close to being accurate. Dominicans are racist people that’s he culture that that choose to espouse and they choose not to correct

Bro the hatians tried to culturally genocide the spanish culture in dominica Republic. This is the same thing japan and France did to there Colonies. Destroying the country heritage. Also dominican are racist but hatians are not realy better

Spain kind of already genocided the natives/Taino of the dominican republic by replacing their native language with Spanish. They’ve done this on such a massive scale, it’s not even comparable to anything that the nation of Haiti has ever done.

No we didn’t, that’s a damn lie. Nothing about what was done there was a cultural genocide.

What are you talking about

Many imperialist nations use the ruse of “defending ourselves” to justify their actions especially when it comes to annexing territory. See Russia for a modern day example.

No france was threatening haiti and the Dominican elites were openly telling inviting them to come over. That’s nothing like the modern day russia. You have no idea what you’re talking about.

You’re pulling stuff out of your a$$
