As a Native American whose citizenship is being argued against in the Supreme Court, whose people have been fighting against the invasion of white people from Europe for centuries and only got the right to vote in 1975: go fuck yourself.
This seems as ignorant as the parent comment. Just like they ignored the native population, you’re ignoring whole countries full of white peoples who did not partake in any form of colonialism.
What fault of ours is the invasion of your country by other white people from Europe hundreds of years ago? Our ancestors were the ones who stayed in Europe
Edit: a lot of people seemed to have found the downvote button, but no one seems to have found the answer.
Edit #2: still more downvotes, but nobody has answered my question, just some comments about colonialism and my stupidity.
People are entirely missing the point: why should a grudge against some random other white people that have nothing to do with us stop you from rising up against this white person? Why should we go fuck ourselves because of that? Wake up and do something and stop making excuses.
No one is saying it’s your fault dumbass we’re saying not to blame people being targeted by the fucking Nazis in the USA for this mess. Would you blame the Jewish, Romani, and queer people that got targeted by Nazis for WW2? Think before you comment.
No you idiot I’m talking about the part that we are told to go fuck ourselves because of the invasion of white people into America.
Of course I wouldn’t blame Jewish people for WW2, but telling people to go fuck themselves because some other random ass people invaded your country 100s of years ago is moronic.
You guys still have the power to rise up but are making all kinds of excuses so you don’t have to. A Native American person is still perfectly capable of protesting against this regime.
Don’t compare yourselves to the Jewish people in WW2 because things that happened in the camps and on the streets there are far, far worse. Comparing what’s happening in America right now to those atrocities is beyond dumb. Think before you fucking comment.
Ah yes I see European solidarity is alive and well. No chance you’ll ever have fascism again over there with statements like that. Truly a bastion of the brightest and best ideals of humanity.
Moreover, it’s not a europe problem it’s a class problem. It wasn’t the builders, gardeners, and plumbers of Europe deciding to subjugate the world. It was the oligarchs. They were squeezing all they could out of Europe and it wasn’t enough for them. So they dressed it up as duty to the country/religion to expand, but it was a way of enriching themselves.
Many Scottish crofters were also forced off their land during the sheep clearances when the lairds figured out that removing the population and replacing them with sheep was more profitable. They would either buy up the land and evict the crofters or charge them for fabricated crimes and send them to Australia. The place I grew up has a population of around 10% of what it should be because of this practice (that’s after steady growth in the last few decades).
It’s also worth mentioning that a lot of the settlers from Scotland who joined the Hudson Bay company for example, did so because they couldn’t earn enough to survive at home. Both because of taxes from the lairds and low wages.
So yes Europeans moved to America, but for most of them it was a matter of survival, not greed.
I keep seeing so many people saying to hell with all Americans, no matter who, and I feel like this best counters that sentiment. Those in power would love to see us bicker and fight each other over nationality while they reap in the riches. In reality, we’re all on the same side against the oligarchs. We’ve all been fucked over by the rich.
There is no war but the class war. Stand together and unite.
Colonialism? Are you serious? Or seriously out of your mind?
Just because some random ass people who happened to come from my country went to another country I have to take “go fuck yourself” from an American who won’t do anything about Trump and get called a colonialist on top of that?
You unknowingly told all indigenous people to go fuck themselves. An indigenous person told you that they are struggling and to go fuck yourself. You got your panties twisted and instead of saying " my bad, I agree you guys aint the problem" you doubled down.
Your mindset is one of willful ignorance towards the plight of the indigenous people of the americas. It is a colonizers mindset

A country with a horrible colonial past, as all European countries
Dude, not every country in Europe was a colonial power
your willful ignorance towards the indigenous is moreso what im referring to
Where am I denying or showing ignorance towards any of it?
