Yes, Anglos did commit some horrific atrocities, as did the Conquistadors. But this is pure ignorance. News flash, Borrego. There are a paucity of Injuns (Native Americans, Indigenous peoples, whatever) East of the Mississippi for a simple reason. Andrew Jackson forcibly removed them to Oklahoma. It was called the Trail of Tears. Even so, there are a number of Indian reservations in New York State.

I don't know who chopped off 8,000 Native American feet in New Mexico. Have they found 8,000 footless skeletons there? Might it be that it was a fabrication? A decree by Juan de Onate that was never, or only partially, carried out? It's unlikely that it was all done at once, if it was done at all.

Some "representatives" of indigenous people in the U.S. are probing the white man's culture and society to see if he has gone soft. You can't blame them.

They take a look at the Democrats and many U.S. institutions who have gone Woke and assume it's time to strike (i.e., seek some kind of financial restitution).

You can't blame them for that either.

All that said, Woke society is a pussified society and it has placed itself squarely opposite reality itself.

I watched a video just this morning in which a former Wokester said that if you really wanted to piss off a Wokester, tell him that "whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger" or tell him to "suck it up."

He (they, she, it, them) will fly into a rage.

The Left, the Wokesters, and the CRT proponents hate reality with a passion.

Can you imagine how utterly insane it is to pick a fight with reality?

It’s unlikely that it was all done at once, if it was done at all.

It’s like the smallpox infected blankets legend. It never happened and grows in the telling. During the Pontiac Rebellion a British colonel suggested giving smallpox infected blankets to the Indians. They realized it was highly likely to backfire so the idea died. Now the US is blamed for giving the Indians smallpox.

The thing about oral history it does then to grow as time passes so much of real history is never known unfortunately.

The reservations where the Indians were sent “are all in States with Hispanic names: Montana, Colorado, California, New Mexico... in the north, there are none, except one for Indians who fled Canada. Why aren’t there reserves in Ohio, Tennessee, Kentucky, Georgia, Virginia, or New York? Why?”

I question the credentials of someone who tells me there are no indian reservations in New York.

The Indians had Neolithic technology and were hunters, gatherers, fishermen, and gardeners with stone and wooden tools.

The Europeans were farmers and herders with iron plows, hoes, and other tools, as well as draft animals for traction and transportation.

The agriculturalists produced far more calories per square mile than the hunter/gardeners. It was inevitable that they would out produce, out multiply, and take over the arable and grazing lands.

The same thing happened with the Russian expansion across north Asia, British in Australia and New Zealand, the Dutch in South Africa, the Spanish in Argentina, Chinese rice farmers in Asia, Anatolian farmers up the Danube Valley, steppe herders into Europe, and the expansion of Bantu herders across Africa.

The more productive economy wins.

Didn’t the Indians supposedly come from Siberia tens of thousands of years ago? So if they were originally Eurasian, what does that mean for these Cultural Marxists who hate Anglos?

A little background on the Andrew Jackson deportation.

Way back when there was a three way split. The northern tribes and the southern tribes had at some point had a vicious war, so great and murderous that what is now Kentucky, the N-S and E-W crossroads of the eastern US, was declared by them to be a “neutral zone”. No settlements or camping was permitted in the entire state.

The east coast was occupied by the Europeans, and they could make no inroads into either the north or the south. But because the east coast was full, when a large number of new immigrants, Scots Borderers, arrived, they were told to settle in Kentucky, and fortify the place. If they could keep it, it was theirs.

The French and Indian War (1754–1763) was a brutal bloodbath to the northern tribes, followed by Pontiac’s Rebellion (1763), decimated or more the northern tribes.

The southern tribes were pretty much still whole, and by the time of Andrew Jackson, he realized that unless he intervened, the pressure of new settlement in the south would result in a bloody or genocidal war.

His alternative was the Trail of Tears. He attached the US Army for the deportation, both to insure the Indians left and to protect them from harassment by settlers. And while they complain bitterly about it, the army sent with them suffered as much from cold, disease and starvation.

But it saved most of their lives and kept their tribal unity and culture intact.

Not sure where he got 8,000 had their feet cut off. Oñate’s own journal said he cut their toes off, and it was only a couple of hundred at most.

HORSE PUCKEY. This didn’t happen, it is another attempt to align with those who are being taught to hate AMERICA and especially WHITE PEOPLE.

Once America falls to the Woke pukes, whites will be hunted with the quiet permission of the official government. BET ON IT.

The Apaches did things that make cartels look like bible study nerds. If I was alive back then, and had command of troops, I would have wiped all of them out without prejudice.

Look,

“native” people were conquered, like all sorts of people throughout history.

However, I am tired of the genocide narrative crap as well.

When Columbus landed in America they entire population of “native” people on the North American continent is lower than the number of self identified “native” people living in the USA Today.

If genocide was their goal, it was one of the worst executed ones ever.

Yes atrocities occurred..and yes native Americans committed atrocities against each other as well.

Human nature wasn’t somehow “different” on the American continents than it was in Europe, or Asia, or Africa,etc etc.

The narrative that “natives” were some peace Nick hippies full of nothing love, and understanding and peace is invented pr dogma.

Humans did not get to thr top of the food chain and the dominant species on the planet by being “nice”… sorry but that narrative is flat out crap.

There was a real genocide of the Apaches when many of them were driven out of their ancestral lands.

By the Comanches.
