They gave them blankets with smallpox. "Fair fight" my ass.
No such thing as a fair fight, ever. Fighting fair is called sport. Fighting is fighting, you win or you die. Winners win, losers die. Would we like that some of the losers weren't killed? Sure, but you can't bring back the dead. History will continue, and you will never see an Native American owned and run America, no matter how idealistic that might feel, because they are already culturally dead. Native Americans are 4x4 driving casino operators now, they became Americans.
oh go die you fascist colonizer
Actually I'm a democratic socialist, I don't condone those actions, but that doesn't change reality.
Don't let your idealisms and ego get in the way of understanding the truth.
I don't care what you say you are, your opinions are what I judge
defend fascism and colonialism, your are a fascist colonizer
idealism? I actually know the contents of this conflict, while you seem to be blinded by "omg resisting fascism is basically fascism"
the only socialist you are is the national socialist
Which opinion do you disagree with? Be specific. Because I have a hunch you're about at close to comprehension as the sun is to earth.
you advocate for assimilation, a form of cultural genocide
they didn't fucking become americans, they still exist, I work with them. America is still killing them.
Every american is a settler that deserves to be dragged back to europe, and you know it
No I didn't. Quote me where you believe I did. I said assimilation happened, I didn't support or advocate for it. Show me which words I used in approval. Bet you can't.
condemning anti colonialism as idealistic because we finished the genocide this time is actually bad if you didn't know
Which specific words did I use to approve of cultural genocide? You haven't answered the question.
Where do I defend the colonialism? Recognition isn't the same as acceptance. Show me where I said anything about it being good?
you immediately went 'muh fair fight no exist' after someone pointed out that colonizers used smallpox to kill people. Then had some useless lip service followed by a 'well, they're dead now, they lost'.
why the hell should I take you braindead slimeshits as anything but insidious.
Quote my words. Or can't you?
your words seem to keep getting removed lol
you can read your own fucking sentence can't you? motherfucker don't you dare act like context and implication, an essential part of language, just doesn't exist and nothing matters unless you say it word for word.
Quote them if its so easy, quote my exact specific words that say those things instead of your bullshit interpretation.
Funny thing about communication, telling somone else what they meant or said makes you automatically incorrect because they are the one communicating a message. If they say you don't understand them you don't understand. That's called comprehension and yours sucks.
So, point out my specific words where I did anything other than make an objective statement. I'll wait.
wasn't that the whole previous conversation, why should I restate points you can read
woah misunderstanding can be malicious, and from the hostility im not getting a very good faith vibe (I don't really care, but an acknowledgement of shared uncaring would be nice)
also I don't care anymore, I have a bus stop to get off at and work to get to
woah I had a life and a bus to catch you fucking couch-dweller
the ableism isnt cool, aren't winning yourself any points there
If you are in the imperial core, not condemning israel and supporting palestine is supporting Israel.
