gonna need specifics before you start making comparisons

it depends what they said on the wire and if you count mcdonalds and billboards in africa as imperialism

Advocates of the “yes it was genocide” position have generally accepted high estimates for the pre-Columbian population and a correspondingly very high figure for initial depopulation. If 75 million people lived in in the Western Hemisphere in 1491 and the death toll from epidemic disease was 70, 80, or even 90 percent (as was sometimes the case), the sheer numbers (50–60 million) are overwhelming and compel recognition as genocide when measured against the numbers for commonly accepted cases of genocide in the twentieth century.2

It was not all genocide though, much of the killing was done by disease and taking over resources.

/e: So.. Let's say, find me something with more than 30 mil ppl in a genocide.

Your first paragraph is copy&pasted from that site. I'm sure you just forgot to put it in quotes, & aren't trying to pawn it off as your own worded opinion though, mate. The part you did ad lib might be relative to the discussion though

True. That should have been quoted and yes it is part of the discussion, they are still casualties of the invasion, yet enough reason to lower to the number to find a similar genocide for the purpose of the discussion.

Estimates range between 2.1 million to a high of 18 million total Natives in the US and as many as a third of those had simply assimilated by the mid 1800's.

At least 90% of the disease deaths were unintentional, you can't pin that on anyone.

Your numbers just don't add up to Stalin's purges (15 million).

mao's misguided "great leap forward" is generally accepted to be the main cause for a famine whose death toll is estimated to range between 18 and 55 million. most estimates are in the 40-45 million range.

I'm not sure if this qualifies as genocide, but he intentionally sacrificed THAT MANY of his own people to push forward his socialist/communist agenda. there was certainly more intention or silent acquiescence involved in this famine than in the diseases brought to the native americans by the european settlers...
