It's more an Andrew Jackson-style genocide

The OG Hitlers.

Fun fact for those that don't know; Hitler was heavily inspired by how America Genocided all the Natives and filled the land with white people.

Fuckcars moment

Right, but the point of the displacement-style genocide is partly deniability.

You're still eradicating a culture and people, but the camp guards don't kill themselves or spend the rest of their lives drinking themselves to death.

You'll even find chuds defending it a hundred years later because "it was mostly disease that killed them" and such.

Whoa whoa whoa you ignorant fuck. America wasn't even a country when most indigenous tribes were wiped from the Americas. We have the Spaniards and French to thank for that. But even still, 90% of the native population was slautered during colonization of the America's. The Trail of Tears was really America just taking credit for it all.
