The indigenous people who were here first were displaced by American Indian tribes long ago and that pattern continued for centuries with other Indian tribes pushing out other tribes. It is stupid virtue signaling crap.

I’m celebrating Stone Age culture meets a gunpowder culture day. The only chance the Indians had was if their diseases sent to Europe were much deadlier than the reverse and Europe was depopulated. Maybe if they had Emperor Fauci-zuma, whose revenge is more powerful than Montezuma’s.

“The indigenous people who were here first were displaced by American Indian tribes long ago and that pattern continued for centuries with other Indian tribes pushing out other tribes. It is stupid virtue signaling crap.”

Meanwhile, Muslims are pushing out present indigenous Dallas. In 400 years, will they have indigenous peoples day controversies? Or just 5 x a day call to prayer in the former cathedrals?

Cannabis began in central Asia, but it was brought to America for smoking by the Mexicans crossing the border in the late 1800s (according to Google AI). That would mean that marijuana users would be experiencing the Monte-zoomies.

If we have to call Columbus Day Indigenous People’s Day, can we at least call all the casinos they were awarded “Casino Columbus”. After all, if there was no Columbus to find them, they would have no casinos.

No humans were indigenous to the Western hemisphere. ALL came from somewhere else, or their ancestors did.

Funny thing, I was checking the NWS site for next weeks weather and they still show Columbus day for Monday. Did they not get the memo? 🤣 Oh, and our forecast is possible rain/snow mix. ?????

By indigenous you mean the folks that came across the bearing land bridge from Asia right? And, what was growing in place before the giant redwood trees popped up? 😉
