Reminder that the US has been a treaty-violator from the beginning of its existence. Breaching numerous treaties with the Native Americans.
Geez, no need to get hostile. You make it sound like the Brittish Colonies and the US wiped out 97% of a thriving population of millions in many diverse nations with various gruesome methods including but not limited to biological warfare, kicked the survivors off their land and tried to indoctrinate their descendants. Do you even hear yourself?
Wouah, that sound bad! Glad I'm from France
Me, too. I'm happy for you. Thanks to your ancestors for kicking Brittish ass including but not limited to that of British General Cornwallis. Thanks for the Louisiana purchase. Thanks to them for the Statue of Liberty. Thank you and your peers for demanding rights for the working class and violently refusing anything less. I hope France continues to be a beacon for democracy and I hope America finds its way back.
Yeah we just have to ignore the africa part
Admittedly, yes, but for whatever it's worth, a lot of countries are trying to downplay their historic involvement in Africa. I remember reading Conrad's "Heart of Darkness." What colonialists failed to achieve in Africa, they more than made up for in the Americas and in the worst ways possible.
The reason the US is so fucked up is because it was built on top of a Native American burial ground
If we hit that bullseye, the rest of the dominoes should fall like a house of cards. Checkmate
