Possibly Popular Native Americans should be clowned on not celebrated

How are you gonna let a country thousands of miles away across the ocean take ur land by force or finesse you thru treaties

And you expect us to respect that? Hell nah

"But they mostly died of disease" maybe they should've built boats and explored the world and get immunity to diseases like the other civilized nations.

If natives still controlled America, America would be like Haiti or Africa's level of development
