A little?

It’s factually false.

The term indigenous is a little silly. None of us are indigenous to this continent. We’re an invasive species. Just call her what tribe she is, but they need to virtue signal with a silly term.

I remember when I was in elementary school in the 60s it was stressed constantly that those he then called American Indians migrated to this continent across the Berring Straight starting about a thousand or so years before 1492 and migrating all the way down to the southern tip of South America. If this is true, which I think it largely is, then what does it matter who was here first? Fact is the American continent was truly less than a barbaric backwater until the white European came. If we had not arrived the continent would have been much the same as it was before he came, and that's a fact.
