Yeah it was more genocidal than colonial

It was literally founded on settler-colonialism. Just because this resulted in such a profound and extensive destruction of countless peoples that are nearly wiped out today doesn’t make it less colonial.

That’s not colonialism. It didn’t involve any colonies.

There were many colonies, lol. There was also Settler-Colonialism. Read about US history some time.
