Obviously you are, or you think the rest of us are so gullible and ignorant that we won't understand how ignorant your initial post was and lacking in temporal context.

The long legacy of official sanctioned murder, bounties and genocides against Native Americans once again is shown that the common narrative we all thought was true... isn't.

Fact remains, USA, Canada and Mexico were colonized by murderous thugs, who came under the guise of religion in many cases, and decimated that existing First Nations.

Can we change that now? Of course not, but let's accept the reality that our forefathers were not angels, instead, they committed horrific crimes. History is written by those that win, but it helps to understand the common narrative that all of us (me included) were taught and accepted.
Not sure where you went to school, but I was taught about our poor treatment of Native Americans back in the 60's and 70's in grade school. Are you saying that current woke leftist educators are white washing history? They must being doing a lot if it in recent years, given how CRT advocates claim all kinds of stuff everyone was taught in school back in the day is apparently no longer taught - slavery, Jim Crow, Tulsa race massacre, etc.

...because it is easy and intellectually lazy to just blame dead descendants for what ails certain groups in society today.


100 years from now, blacks will still be blaming American slave trade, Jim Crow, and redlining as to why they cannot get ahead. Count on it....


The blame game and finger-pointing never ends and no...a few hundred years means nothing when you are a glass-half-empty malcontent! LOL

Guilt-ridden leftists known as Doomers are already not having kids because they literally think humans are bad for the planet. They are self selecting for God fearing families still having 5 kids and slowing replacing the leftists over time, who are also using abortion as birth control
