"The 2020 edition of liberalism is fueled by the kind of strange, self-torturing religious fervor that’s so medieval it’s straight out of “Monty Python and the Holy Grail,” in which monks trudge around chanting while smacking themselves in the face with boards. The central tenet of liberalism is no longer concrete “change.” The point now is to perform your adherence to the dogma — marches, demonstrations and announcements acted out with the kind of fervor that proves to fellow devotees you really mean it."

It was not stolen but won in a war.  Actually, the natives didn't believe in owning property and did nothing with the land anyway.

White man = the conqueror. White men settled many places worldwide, driving out or eradicating the native peoples. It's called survival of the fittest and not called be kind to your neighbor.

And it's why we have a technologically advanced society today with laws and ethics.

Native Americans were living in a highly evolved and technologically superior civilization before evil white man arrived.

Same as Wakanda was before whites invaded Africa.

Stealing land is literally the history of how the entire world was populated, settled and divided up

Exactly.  It would be one thing if this was 1876.  Or 1676.  But it's 2020.  What are we supposed to do?  Give it all back to people who are American citizens but with native American Ancestry?  And then put even one else on reservations?  If so, would be able to have casinos?  Asking for a friend.

That's the basic reality that ruled humanity from day 1.
I don't think we should give France back to the Nazis or Texas back to Mexico.

Just because I never voted for Trump doesn't mean I'm all in with far left progressives.
