i feel like 250 is a nice round age to end on so how bout we just call it quits here with this whole usa thing. we’d need someone to be in charge, but i know theres a lot of tribes out there who could really use their #land back so i think we’re all set

Remember land isn’t stolen, it was conquered :)

Conquered means it was earned. Stolen means it was stolen

so like if a bunch of folks stormed your house and drove you out, which bucket does that fall into?

i mean I’m not arguing that you should/shouldn’t care, in my opinion those atrocities are so far in the past there’s nothing that can be done to correct them. I’m just trying to understand where this whole conquered/stolen argument comes from because from my pov it seems like the kind of thing white nativists use to justify some sort of preemptive ownership over who gets to “be an American” today, which is a far more relevant discussion today than whether or not colonialism was justified

But he’s lowkey right though . Even my tribe leader says why should we be mad when more smarter ppl have conquered us . That just a part of ur human history
