Sen. Ed Markey (D-MA) called for a recognition of “the true history of Thanksgiving” as “atrocities committed against Native Americans” via Twitter on Thursday.
Markey, whose uses a photo of himself wearing a mask on his Twitter profile, wrote:
While we celebrate all that we are grateful for today, we must also remember the true history of Thanksgiving and recognize the atrocities committed against Native Americans, as well as the widespread disease brought by European arrival which decimated the Native population. In Massachusetts, on this 400th anniversary of the Mayflower’s arrival, we continue to stand with the Wampanoag people who first met the Pilgrims and celebrate their continued sovereignty and land rights.

Massachusetts is the sovereign land of Wampanoag people, claimed Markey. Despite America’s sovereignty over the Bay State, he called for a celebration of Wampanoag “land rights” on Thanksgiving.
The Boston Globe called for a “reframing” of the Thanksgiving “narrative” on Wednesday, describing Native American “struggles” as rooted in “environmental devastation” and “police brutality.”
Native Americans survived a “genocide,” according to the Boston Globe, which further advocates left-wing historical revisionism to be applied to primary school curriculum.
Markey was reelected to the U.S. Senate in November’s general election. According to the Associated Press, he received 66.7 percent of the vote.

Why doesn’t any of these asshats ever talk about how brutal and savage Native Americans were among themselves? They killed each other and some practiced cannibalism and slavery. They stole each other’s land before and after Europeans ever got here.
I agree with Markey. Return Massachusetts to the Wampanoag people and let them fill the two Senate seats from their own ranks.
The communists aren’t even hiding it anymore and are openly destroying America.
I’m all for giving the entire state of Massachusetts back to the Indians, as long as the State is no longer a part of the United States.
Kennedy was the saner kook.
Markey is one of the most stupid of a bunch of stupid ‘Rats.
Police brutality? Now the cops are responsible for what happened in colonial times? Democrats are evil. I hope Markey needs a cop some day and nobody answers his 911 call.
“...I agree with Markey. Return Massachusetts to the Wampanoag people and let them fill the two Senate seats from their own ranks....”
THAT right there is EXACTLY what needs to happen.
Put up, or shut up, Massholes.
Wasn’t the first thanksgiving celebration held WITH the Indians celebrating a great harvest that year??
It doesn’t appear that this self-righteous asswipe is giving any of his land back to the natives.
The Rats hate America, and promote tales of atrocities in order to enlist others to their destructive cause.
The Rats are unequivocally the enemies of the Country and Constitution.
Ignore the folks trying to divide us. They suck @ss.
The worst atrocities committed against American Indians was by democrats and other American Indians.
This “Native American” says Ed Markey needs to STFU.
We fought, we lost, there’s no honor in whining. It’s like I tell other Indians when they start that crap,go live in a teepee when it’s -20, when you get sick get a medicine man to pray over you. If you don’t want to do that, STFU and get with the modern world.
Hes incorrect.
Further he ignores the fact many instances were started by atrocities committed by the indians. Against the colonists and of course, for thousands of years, against other indian tribes.
And it would have just kept going. To wit, Africa.
KENNDEY HAD NO SANITY,,,,HE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DEATHS OF 2 MILLION VIETNAMESE AND CAMBODIANS.
To the fools that buy into this kind of hate garbage, you can’t unring that bell. Get real!!
Thanks for giving us the lone power we have, love.
Inspite of our free will that can ignore, love.
