Genocide reigned supreme in pre-colonial America. Indians should be thankful that God intervened by sending civilized Christians to save them from themselves. Otherwise America would be as bad as Africa

They probably would have survived but many of their cultures were horrific by today’s standards.

Likewise the European settlers held values that would not be acceptable today.

People do not understand that history is linear, you can’t go back and judge people from past eras by today’s standards, and you certainly cannot do it one sided. It is dishonest to do so.

I guarantee you that if the New World had not been colonized by Europeans it would've been colonized by the Mesoamerican tribes. It is probable that either the Aztecs or another Mexican empire would have expanded north killing, raping, and performing blood sacrifices on North American tribes. The Aztecs were as evil and bloodthirsty is any people that ever crawled across the face of this planet.

Even today Mexico is a bloodthirsty shit-hole.
