There is actually a secret beneath the secret—white leftist historians are denying ancient peoples in the Americas any history at all.

The history of the human race is brutal and ugly—much worse than the “official historians” want to admit.

There have never been any clean hands—only lots of liars who wrote history.

We may have stolen their land and killed a bunch of them but the Indians introduced smoking tobacco to the Western world so I'd say we're pretty much even.

We gave them smallpox, they gave us lung cancer, so we're square now.

We didn't steal it. It was basically unoccupied. Read the Journals of Lewis and Clark (or Undaunted Courage) and see how rare their encounters with Indians were as they journeyed from St. Louis to the Pacific Ocean.

"Hmmmm, if that’s the case blacks owe reparations to all white people."

African tribes captured their neighboring enemies, and sold them to the white slavers. They owe their own people reparations. And as they sent many of their own kind to die in slavery in strange lands, they continue to kill each other in the streets of America every day.

The only difference between European civilization and others is that Europeans had the wherewithal and inclination to record their conquests.

Seems they sacrificed close to ¼ of their population to some god or another.

“There is actually a secret beneath the secret—white leftist historians are denying ancient peoples in the Americas any history at all.”

That is completely absurd. Leftist historians are REWRITING the Indian/Native Anerican history to make them look purer than the driven snow. Hollywood movies, news articles, the music industry, etc, etc, etc, etc, have only one message: Columbus brought in all of the evil to what had been humans in the Americas living in harmony with nature and each other.
Caucasians are the root of all the pain and suffering since 1492. Everyone in today’s society are bombarded hundreds of times each day with this message in open and subliminal forms.

Didn’t the Aztecs conquer and enslave the Olmecs? Who knows who they conquered.

The Aztecs had only been around for about 400 years before the Spanish showed up.

The Iroquois were a confederation of tribes. The English called them the Five Nations, comprising the Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga, and Seneca (listed geographically from east to west. They didn't form this confederacy because of a fondness for drum &poetry recitation circles. They did it for war both defense and offense. The present hippie fascination for for Indians is an insult to Indians !

True. I came upon some detailed research articles and book excerpts a professor ordered on interlibrary loan. Torture was common.

Now we’re supposed to believe they were one with nature and sat outside after dark gazing at the stars in mindfulness sessions. Right.

loL... Indians stole each others land all the time. Many or most tribes loved going to war. And SURPRISE! War was not always over hunting grounds and water. War was often promoted and fomented by the young braves, who gained higher tribal status by being a successful warrior.

Higher tribal status meant more sex partners. One objective of Indian wars was to kill the other tribe’s men and to capture their women, to make into your tribe’s sex partners and wives. The young boys were turned into your tribe’s warriors. So that your tribe increased in warrior numbers to expand even more via war.
