I don’t understand the “stolen land” idea - The colonists were simply the latest conquerors (and some bough land from the locals, like NYC, so that’s safe to live, I guess?), because certain tribes were hella conquerors.

Okay, I guess no one was illegal on that land either. Now what’s the problem?

There’s a movie you should check out. Little Big Man, a fictionalized account of real events in America’s history of taking any and every parcel of land that Native Americans have had the misfortune of living on.

The worst part is they didn’t even need it all. There was and still is plenty of land.

I own a 14 acre property. If someone just came and pitched a tent and build a cabin in the corner of one of my hay fields… By your logic they’re just what exactly? It’s my land. I own it. What makes you think you can just claim it.

Lol owning land

On a scale of one to ten, how much do you hate indigenous people?

Just asking because “lol owning land”. Because my comment was completely soaked in how colonizers took over the indigenous peoples’ land.
