Although this is infuriating, Ben & Jerry's has been woke from the get-go, and I doubt if many patriots eat their ice cream.

They should consider reparations for all the people they killed with their fat and sugar loaded frozen slime.

Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield. You can be sure they have their money safely tucked away overseas.

How does that work?

Start with their houses, their company..

Lead by example.

This is cynically craven marketing.

Before we arrived at THE NEW WORLD indian tribes were constantly at war with other tribes, ambushing, kidnapping and enslaving the vanquished.

When we arrived people built their shelters, cleared land for farming, peacefully. Might have been exceptions but the indian tribes went to war with the settlers.

Turns out we won, they lost but never changed their attacks on our population. So to the victor goes the spoils.

Reservations were set up, Trail of Tears and all that but since the attacks would not stop they needed to be limited to particular areas.

Not all the best lands but the Agua Caliente tribe in the Palm Springs, CA area are doing well. Almost every reservation has at least one casino and the Feds do a pretty generous job with fed benefits for housing, schooling and medical services.

We might have co-existed but the indians chose poorly. IMHO.

Who says it was stolen? Did the “indigenous “ have proof of ownership? Maybe the land belonged to a prior tribe. Who knows who owned what.

I certainly don't.

And I have ancestors butchered by "indigenous people."

Ben & Jerrys can go micturate up a vertical hemp rope.

As ususal, Leftist hypocrites. Their homes, their factories and their sales outlets are on what was once indigenous lands. So, they should be giving those lands back to the indigenous and paying them for their use all these years. But of course, they won’t because, as with all Leftists, it only applies to others, not themselves.

Victor Hanson points out that, throughout history, ancient civilizations were often completely wiped out and utterly erased by the victors. The women and children were hauled off as booty and slaves. The men were all killed. Entire cities were reduced to rubble. All history was obliterated and no evidence of that civilization was left.

The Native Americans should actually be thankful that the westward call of Manifest Destiny did not do that to them. It would have been a small step further to have completely wiped out all Indian societies rather than moving them to reservations. The Christian abolitionist movement influenced our treatment of the natives and, by the 1870s and 80s, the proposal to completely destroy the Indians was abandoned as an immoral evil.

The victors let the remnants of the Indian civilization continue, but that was far better than being completely erased and wiped off the face of the earth.

The Indians fought us and each other.

No land needs to be given back, unless Ben & Jerry want to buy it and bequeath it, themselves.

Years of smoking the wacky weed has done a number on Ben & Jerry’s collective brain.

Ben and Jerry don’t own this land. Other people do, and they did not steal it. The supposed recipients have intermarried with Europeans, and have no semblance of a claim. Indian Nations are not representative of the people whom the land was originally stolen from. They are merely bureaucratic strangers to the original dispute.

Then they need to give up the land their plants are located on— that is, shut down and dismantle the plants and return these sites/acreages to the original “owners” indigenous who remain alive today. What idiocy. Commie-Cream makers who think they have the right to say these idiotic thing whuuuh, have a toke— “because”. f’n morons who fortunately will die of coronary atheromas from hyper saturated fat in their ‘ice creams”. Maybe mix in some superhydrogenate ghee to “up” their LDL number and loosen every vulnerable arterial plaque they have to float free and block a carotid or two.

Ben and Jerry's owns quite a bit of land.

They are quite free to sign it over to the closest tribe if they wanted to do so.

But they don't.

Because they are raging hypocrites.
