Land Not Yours
So perverse it is for radically and proudly under-educated white twenty-somethings deploying bullets and screeds to whine about this land having been stolen from…them. White people are and have always been usurpers of this land, here still by virtue of an at best odd marriage of force and the extraordinary, if not still shocking, restraint of those here before, who remain largely subject to White whim.

“…the extraordinary, if not still shocking, restraint of those here before,…”
These people were never prone to violence predicated on “ownership” or “title” in the land of their forefathers and ancestors…
Their disputes regarding property or real estate was predicated on , and eminated from, use of the land upon which they lived.
Permanent settlement and structures were not common as many tribes were nomads and moved about freely within the territories they inhabited.
This is especially true of the plains tribes who followed the herds of deer, antelope, and buffalo…
They did not understand the European concept of “property”. As a result, their ignorance was exploited and they were cheated and defrauded by white people who were engaged in wholesale genocide as the method of asserting and enforcing their specious claims to, and governmental hegemony over, “land not theirs”.

“Proudly under-educated” says it all

We are living in a cesspool of collective ignorance in which are all swimmers in the pool because none of us any longer knows enough about any given subject to be an expert in that subject. The production of data (which refers to both true and false statements because whether a statement is true or false, it is still data) so far outstrips our ability to consume and process data we are now all truly ignorant. I speculate on this quite often since I frequently come up against information I know is dead wrong while also discovering things that I believe to be true are found out to be definitely not.
