eh, when only [former] colonial powers are fighting it’s just called fighting.
However, I’ve seen people unironically say that the Irish were colonized by the Brits, we just don’t call it that because Irish people are white.
IDK whether or not I agree, but it’s certainly an interesting parallel as British rule over Ireland really did not differ that much from British rule over other overseas territories.
I don’t see how that’s in any way controversial. The colonization of Ireland by the English using the Scots-Irish as the primary Settler class is pretty well documented.
