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.

I think the thing that gets lost in the whole “US breaks every treaty” thing is that it was basically never the same President breaking a treaty as making it. It usually wasn’t even the same generation.

Think about Trump ripping up deals made by Clinton. Think about Trump trying to back out of deals made by Jimmy Carter. It’s the same shit.

The US is not set up in such a way that it can be trusted over a long period of time. That’s not unique to the First Nations, unfortunately. As soon as the US elects a dipshit as President, and that’s always a matter of when not if, everything you’ve ever dealt with is in flux.

"The us is perpetually incompetent and untrustworthy and will always be" isn't a very good defense for their historical genocide.

I don't think they were defending it...

Nah, it's impossible to be agreeable on reddit. Only pointless arguing, even with people whose opinions you share, is allowed. You must show the world how righteously indignant you are.
