    He didn’t kill ALL the innocent, whose land he stole and whose relatives he murdered. Only those that dated fight back.

    Yeah, sounds like Trump.

        Instead of actually working towards something better, let’s just spend our time arguing over things we can’t change. /S

        They still have slaves. They are just in prison. That’s my point.

          the constitution even condones it. Fucked. Prisoners get paid like 70c an hour or some shit.

          That’s still far from as bad.

            Oh okay. I didn’t realize “a little” slavery is okay. As a treat if your white I guess.

              What. Are you genuinely fucking with me or do you think enslaving a third of the population is the same level of bad as prison labor.

              Do you straight up think there’s no difference between before and after the civil war.

                No, I don’t think any slavery is okay at all. Do you?

                  No. But I don’t think theft and murder are ok, but I don’t think they’re the same level of bad.

          I’m sorry, did you just compare painting TO ENDING SLAVERY*

          That’s objectively false. His line work was shit and this meme is inaccurate.

            True, he was a horrible painter. I’ve seen better paintings from Alex Jones

        It tirns out murdering people for their food, goods, and horses is something the government did not want to encourage

        unless you’re a settler, then it’s called “manifest destiny”

        The settlers have always been 100% evil

        No, they were, very much. Europeans were invaders, taking land that didn’t belong to them by force. The government explicitly encouraged murder and turned a blind eye to any abuses. If you don’t want people to defend their land and avenge the love domes you murder, maybe don’t invade and ethnically cleanse the are to begin with?

        Do you also think Russia v. Ukraine or Israel’s genocide don’t have “evil” vs “good” sides?

        Because if you’re invading and murdering innocent people, its a clear cut for most people.
