I'd argue negativity among humans is mainly a product of ignorance, not knowledge. Most angry mobs egged on by lies and deception to murder their own neighbors will calm down and disburse once the lies and deceptions are shown to be just that.
No. Looking to the past helps make amends and *fix* current problems. Refusing to look at the past only maintains a status quo that benefits those in power.
It is sad to see a country (including mine) tear itself apart over immigration. Remember before Columbus there was no America. Every single person, not of American native race, was an immigrant or ancestors of immigrants.
Trumps's grandparents came from Kallstadt Germany (1892)!
I am 100% an immigrant. over 200 years ago, my families came from England, Germany, and Ireland. That is as Anglo as you get ffs. I own that I am an immigrant. And trust me, I wish I could afford to go back to the Irish homeland right now. Sfter January, no decent EU country will want any of us.
History is very often ugly. It wasn't the individual people's intention to cause the death of others. We wouldn't be sitting here talking about this now as there would be no America. I wouldn't exist. P.S. I also have slave ancestors from around 1620
A horrible as history can be, it should never be erased, I was born and raised in Germany, so a immigrant myself, I don't hide from my countries history, its part of us and I hope we all learned from it!
Your solution to racists is to be just as racist? Judging people by their melanin and what dangles between their legs alone, having never met them (oh sorry, forgot also sexist)
No the original white man is to blame…they murdered Indigenous tribes everywhere, white men shot all the Buffalo, even going so far as to just shoot at them from moving trains -leaving the indigenous without their main source of food, fat, and clothing. Then shoved them onto reserves
Further, it would have been far better that settlers went to live as the Indigenous tribes do, never taking too much, moving on when the area was depleted but not ruined-Indigenous could have taught white settlers how to cope with the harsh but beautiful land. Too late now
Indigenous tribes wasted stuff all the time, they drove entire herds of buffalo off cliffs wildly unsustainably, they wiped out multiple fur bearing species from regions for the fur trade
Who was buying all the furs? Until the Europeans showed up, that fur trade didn't exist. The herds were driven off cliffs only when there was no other alternative. It isn't a coincidence that the bison died out after contact, not before
You can just say "conquistadors" for example instead, thus not implying anything about other, completely reasonable kind and lawful white men elsewhere
Inuvuit, North West Territories Inuit and Eskimo indigenous tribes didn’t fight for their way of life, centuries of hunting whale and seal to feed families living in igloos..now they live in houses, but no one tossed them off the land that they hunted for centuries
Your "challenge" is not related to the conversation or anything I would be obligated to answer for me to have a point or for me to have a coherent argument. I never contradicted that.
None of that had literally anything to do with either the melanin in their skin or their genitalia. Categorizing their actions by those things is what is racist and sexist
Exiting polling from the last election suggests that Native Americans continue to shift away from Democrats, especially in Oklahoma. Regardless of how you slice it, though, this meme doesn't do anything to move the conversation forward. It's just more shallow, anachronistic virtue signaling.
We are all humanity. I despise how much this country tries to make immigrants look evil or call ourselves not immigrants. I hate the racism and inequality that is spread across this nation like a plague.
Middle Eastern religion didn't originate from Europe or white people. Scandinavians and the irish didn't "steal land" but that's been eliminated from history.
What’s hard is I am Christian myself. Whatever these people are isn’t true Christianity at all. It’s Christian nationalism through and through. I am disgusted these “Christians” who turned their faith into something hateful and want to put religion in school and politics.
WASPs is what they want. They want their perfect white Christian country again. But that never was or will be true Christianity, and our country was built on many religions not just Christianity…
Even when the country was mostly Christian beliefs, they fought over stupid shit and repressed each other. It was a political argument to label the Christian brand of your opponent. To say why trust them they are a false Christian belief.
I’ll never forget when we moved to Michigan from New Mexico, where my brother and sister were born, and people thought they were Mexican and the bank wouldn’t, at first, accept my moms check that was from her job in New Mexico because they thought it was from Mexico.
It's so wierd that he hates Mexicans so much and yet he got a higher percentage of the Latino vote than any other candidate in history. How is this possible? I think we need more blue hair dye to really bring our message home.
I'm Mexican and we're not the only "latino" voters in the USA. California went to kamala...and I really don't care what he thinks about "mexicans". We're not blacks who long to be accepted by white Americans. Do you see any latinos in a panic over "deportations"..??
These gang members like Tren de aragua and MS-13 are extremely violent. Once established here, they will make all American men look like little children.
Additionally, the most recent individuals crossing the border illegally into the United States over the past four years are not the same hardworking from decades ago. Many are violent gang members who, once established here, will make you wish for Republican policies to address them.
So are you implying there is no border policy for dealing with violent people crossing the border then?
Chump didnt make any real impact on illegal immigration before and just targetted green card applicants because they are an easy target.
He never said he hates Latinos or Hispanics. That’s a lie perpetuated by the fake media to mislead people with very low IQs who believe anything they are told.I'm Latina, and he got my vote. He also got the votes of all my family and friends.
Yeah I don’t think violent European colonizers can at all be compared to climate & economic refugees seeking asylum in the country that played a large part in devastating their own… I can guess what it’s trying to say, but it’s just too ahistorical to work well imo :/
Almost my entire family was massacred over 200 years ago by Natives after refusing to leave land that didn’t belong to them. Don’t give the insane Right ideas…
Hello guys I hope you are well ♥️ Our tent that sheltered me and my family was destroyed and drowned due to the rain and the weather storm, and we spent the night on the sidewalk in the cold. I hope you can help me provide a new tent, but it is expensive costing $1000 donate to me💔 https://gofund.me/75862933
Not gonna lie but looking back- maybe they should have deported their asses. Look how they were repaid by not doing it. Bc our ancestors turned into some real fucking assholes
No, she wasn't.
Trump promised a press conference in 2016 with her lawyers so they could explain how she is not illegal.
Another promise ignored by press.
The INS and IRS were both after her in 2016 because she never paid taxes.
She was here on an expired visitors visa, she never had a work visa.
Native Americans got the shaft and still keep getting it. I served in Vietnam with a lot of them, for them only to go back to horrid conditions on their reservations. SAD….
It is very sad, not a proud moment in this country, I cant believe that this post has triggered so many Magas lol .. they are not liking their own history, kind of funny
It’s heartbreaking how history often gets written by those in power, ignoring the immense suffering and resilience of the oppressed. Acknowledging the truth and amplifying Indigenous voices is crucial to understanding the full story and working toward justice.
The ones who came believed that they were superior, so they killed the Natives, drove them from their homes.
The slaveowners believed they were superior and should own other people.
Right? Have we not learned anything from how hostile & violent native americans were towards the peaceful European migrants simply looking for a better life?
Totally, MAGA is an insidious and deranged cult. It's the expression of some of America's darkest impulses. Thing is, the Dems in their own way, are also a dangerous, destructive and self-serving cult, but the difference is, that they have a much more refined mask of public personae.
He alienated working Americans, did little to stop unchecked economic inequality and corporate monopolies driving up prices. He was too old, held onto power despite being told repeatedly that he was killing the Dems chances. Billions of dollars to Israel for weapons etc. etc. Not so smart really.
So true—as a born and bred Oklahoman at times when I was a child it felt as if us white kids were the underdogs. But as I got older and listened to my classmates of Indian descent I learned the truth of how our government treated the true Americans.

I have 2 boys and they are fantastic.
There are only a couple including Iceland.

So by all means it independent territory, we simply took opportunity as much as they did with things like Guatemala.

Too bad they didn’t catch the Trump ancestors and send them back, maybe we wouldn’t be in this mess.
i would suggest african natives having to deal with foreigners extracting critical resources in their land.
Of course they couldn't have kept the land

That’s America.
Hope you all get the day you deserve!
