It’s not so much you’re right (you only have part of the equation) but the absolute dedication to walking yourself off about how righteous you are and how you “left me bleeding on the ground” much like other white folk have physically left me in the past for my heritage. You immediately declared me a fascist for disagreeing with you and while you made good points it’s lost in your threat based rhetoric and chest beating antics, I hope you get better and less intolerant Settler
Look, I do mean it when i say im sorry. I don’t actually like being angry, it bugs me. But actual fascists are somehow everywhere around me in the Deep South, man. And I’ve seen a lot of em sneak on here and argue in bad faith. I’ve got a zero tolerance for white supremacy and that’s where I thought you were coming from.
So. I came out a bit too aggressive there, but I will remind you that until you tell someone who you are on here, youre basically anonymous.
I am curious to the original point of contention, though - why would you defend America’s founding?
Because the founding of the USA and its history is a complex thing as a nation its done many wrongs like its contemporaries and forebears but it’s also done a great deal of good. There’s also a bit of “What’s the point?” Being mad about the USA existing is pointless, it’s founding went like almost every nation in human history, with violence lies and political bullshitting. It’s far more productive and less damaging to my mental health to focus on what needs to be fixed
I mean, yeah, just about every state has rotten roots. The problem is that a lot of other states have at least pretended to develop in an honest way - the US is constantly misrepresenting the history of non-whites, though, and pretty much always had. Until actual reparations are given out, and Native Americans have genuine autonomy, im never going to be a fan.
Less intolerant?? Look buddy im sorry i didn’t somehow know you were Native but if youre still waving an American flag after the last six months I don’t care.
I got pissed off because you were defending the US in the midst of all this. Im a goddamn anarchist. I routinely remind other crackers whose land we stole.
So maybe its a good thing I pissed you off so much youre coming back to this after how long now? Two months my god
Jerboa regurgitated it into my inbox for some reason and I simply decided I had something to say. The sheer vitriol was concerning, I’ve seen it in my personal life and watched that kind of anger twist people who were once my friends into people I no longer recognize
Eh, when I think I’ve got a white supremacist in my sights, yeah, I get mad. The point is to intimidate them like they do minorities. Actual fascists should have to worry for their safety, i have zero sympathy for anyone who chooses white supremacy.
But I agree otherwise. Still doesn’t answer my other question, though.
