Diseases did not conquer hundreds of tribes. The history of the new world is a one of campaigns of war and conquest against indigenous peoples. The fact that many are ignorant of this history is part of the whitewashing project. I linked some audiobooks below so you can learn this history.

If the nazis won, they would teach you about the shoah in exactly the same way western nations teach you about the colonization of the americas.

Ah, my bad.

But nobody is talking about ethnic cleansing.

Reclaiming stolen land is not ethnic cleansing.

And also that much more territory should be transferred back to the reserves.

Correct and it leads to a simple question: If the tribal governments decide that all land claims and titles in the county upon which your house resides are null and void, they're beginning a land reclamation project, current title holders have no rights to the land, what are you going to do? Fight them? Claim ethnic cleansing? It's their land, not yours.

Spot on comrade.

But now it can be prevented and something can be done to stop it but world powers are sitting on their asses to fill their pockets. We should be learning from history not repeating it.

If you don't see how both of these western settler colonial projects are linked, then I'm sure you haven't learned from history. The fact that many westerners are equally ignorant is why we're repeating it in 2025.

The gaza strip, ie the current world concentration camp, is where israel and it's euro-amerikkkan allies have quardoned off 2 million palestinians.

Very few countries currently are based on native eviction, where settlers have nearly replaced the indigenous peoples. The US, canada, australia, new zealand, israel are the main ones.

I think it's projecting western colonial guilt to claim that all countries are equally based on indigenous eviction. Even colonial projects like Spain's in South America did not do to their indigenous peoples what the british did to north america.

Land back means the ownership of the land is returned; it does not mean the expulsion of non-indigenous people

Not up to you or me, that's up to the indigenous tribes themselves to decide.

That doesn't really make sense if you're not first-gen; there is nowhere to go "back" to, if you were born there.

Less than half an hour later, the finders keepers rule I talked about elsewhere in this thread gets invoked.

Maybe you should get off your armchair and go to a protest.

Extremely redditor behavior

You do not, under any circumstances, "gotta hand it to javascript".

Love this quiz btw

Why do the brits always think they're allowed to draw lines on territory that doesn't belong to them, and evict native peoples.

I remember reading the selfish gene maybe a decade ago... iirc a meme is really just any idea, that like a gene, can replicate and spread, and has a "fitness" to its environment that means it either spreads easier, or dies out. It applies to any idea / mental construct, from art, music, even to sayings, philosophies or moods.

They are sweet little goofballs.
