I don’t see your point. Not only were Europeans adept at colonizing other civilizations, but they were also highly proficient at murdering each other. Here’s a fantastical scenario; imagine that some non-white empire across the sea had developed maritime technology advanced enough to reach Europe, and began their own slave trade. Are the Europeans in this fantasy world at fault for having something done to them that they have committed against each other for centuries?
To place the fault for slavery on the backs of black collaborators rather than the white Europeans who orchestrated the slave trade in the first place is a way of deflecting responsibility.
They didn't orchestrate it. The Arabs got to that first, last time i checked.
The Atlantic Slave Trade was the product of European empires, my man. That is basic history.
