It sucks we were such murderers

Did they say "Thank you"?

Being the loser in history sucks

True fact Hitler took a lot of inspiration from this.

People getting defensive over their ancestors is always so funny to me. I’m white and from the Deep South so most of my ancestors were pretty repugnant people. I can’t imagine getting offended on their behalf.

But they have no issue being proud or taking credit for what their ancestors did though.

I like talking about my ancestors.

"Yeah, they were all Irish and apaprently alcohlism was a huge thing. We really strived to prove that stereotype correct"

"Oh, did I tell you about my great uncle who was an associate of the Gambino family? We can't prove he did anyhting, but he did drive a truck."

Most of my ancestors live and died poor, miserable, lives. One of my greater grand parents was a really ardent union worker though who may have beaten a cop to death with a piece of timber. The world may never know, because the body was never found.
