we could deport all of these illegal invaders (myself included) and give the land back to the previous stewards

No doubt the individuals do but down here in Oklahoma the Tribes actually give a damn about their people

Do you seriously want me to go over the names of every tribe the US stole land from?

Absolutely and that is the biggest factor, unfortunately those with the contrarian opinion to us don't consider that a relevant factor.

agreed. so it’s a pointless topic of conversation at its core. we either stop talking about something that’s never gonna happen, or we talk about what to do with the soon ti be American diaspora

Well are we giving it back to the ones we stole it from, or the ones they stole it from, or the ones they stole it from

Land as close as possible to how it was before European colonization forced tribes to migrate. In the cases where tribes no longer exist, that land should be equally split among local tribes

Would it not by hypocritical to return “stolen land” to a tribe where they also stole it?

I was going to say in a follow up comment that I think in cases where indigenous communities stole from indigenous communities that’s something that should be worked out on a tribe to tribe basis. The US gov should not be sticking its fingers into the issues of indigenous communities

Do you think that they would be ethically required to return the land back to who they took it from

I’m sure #7 knows because they definitely care about indigenous people and aren’t just trying to score cheap brainless gotchas

Well i mean you have the Beaver Wars, A lot of smaller tribes in the great lakes region lost land and people to the what we called the “Iroquois confederacy”. Some of those being the Huron, Erie and the Susquehannock tribes

They pretty much wiped out the Neutral tribe too, legitimately genocide

The government’s failure to provide adequate resources for things like alcoholism likely didn’t/don’t help

Why just basically all land?

Bro there’s a very big difference in tribes taking land from each other and us literally genociding them for the land and if you don’t understand that don’t even bother arguing lmao.

It sounds very nice when you word it as just “taking land from eachother” The Iroquois Confederation did genocide the neutral tribe btw
