By the time of the US, it was genocide after genocide. But before that when we called Americans different sorts of European, it was genocide and forced labor/slavery/some becoming human zoo enhibit
But the US didn’t really have any natives to exploit either, they basically genocided them. The exploitation was mostly done with enslaved Africans who they kidnapped and trafficked to the Americas.
So all they need to do is just bring over a population to exploit.
(Which I’m not saying is in anyway okay btw, fuck slavery.)

They did enslave indigenous people, they just found it harder to do. They knew the land, and if they escaped they’d just have to make it back to their own communities.
The very first ship that returned to Europe from America had native slaves.
