What shocked people the most in my yesterday’s show were the land acknowledgements. Nobody is getting over that one any time soon.
I’m being invited on an actual TV show as a result. We have no idea how stupid we look to other people over some of the things we do.
The land acknowledging thing is nuts, Stone Age people lost to a more advanced civilization and they got their butts kicked, happens all the time. My paternal family is Galician and my maternal family is Isleno, by that standard Romans and Spaniards would have to give land acknowledgments to the Celts and Guanches. But since the Celts were white and the Guanches some sort of pale North Africans, it wouldn’t count since the Romans and Spanish just conquered other white peoples even if the term didn’t exist in either time
Every square inch of land on the planet was once occupied by someone else and it’s just so stupid to argue about who came first. “Stolen land” is also not the best way to describe this process. Makes it sound like someone pickpocketed you.
What’s sad is that instead of celebrating their ancestors as brave warriors, native americans (and libtards) choose to depict them as weak, which dishonors the memory of the people who fought for their land. For example, protesting the names of military planes (Apache helicopters for instance) after indian chiefs. You’ll only name a fighter plane after a people if you respect their bravery. That’s the ultimate sign of respect from a victor.
I dunno, I’d rather my people be known for their courage than read the one millionth account of how my tribe was oppressed and weak and subjugated by the white man over the course of a weekend after sleeping on smallpox blankets.
A brilliant thread on how tough the Comanche were.
