As a french dude, and given our history, I have no choice but to stand against all imperialisms. Claiming a territory against the will of its people is exactly what imperialism is. France has done that for centuries along with most of the european powers of the time. Imperialism is criminal, it is murderous, and profoundly unjust. It is nothing less than colonisation. Just let people live on their own terms.

Learn what imperialism is FFS. Throwing around words you don’t know the meaning of serves no purpose but to make you appear foolish

If you'd like to try being constructive, you can drop the FFS and follow up with reading advice, for instance, or a bit of your own. It doesn't have to be long winded, it can just be a couple sentences. This is a good habit to make your own, and replace the waving off with.

Imperalism by Lenin as has already been recomended for starters
