The entire existence of the US is imperialism and colonialism. Until the 1960s the US had a policy of eradicating indigenous languages and cultures. So did Canada and Australia by the way.

    Do you think imperialism in Russia stopped with the fall of the Tsar? If the Soviet Union was so anti-imperialist, why weren't surnames in member states derussified? Why weren't placenames derussified? Why didn't Russian settlers move back to the Russian homeland?

    Same goes for the US and so on. At least reparations/compensation and derussification/deanglicization are necessary.
