Stealing is stealing. And it’s wrong.

Our resident emotional moron with no knowledge of really anything beyond unfettered “empathy” strikes again.

Do you have a downvote stalker or is someone just an idiot?
To the downvote idiot who has no grasp of history, it is called Human Nature and the will to survive. That tribe has something we need and we are stronger, it will be ours.
It's been going on since tribes have been battling over the best living areas and hunting or fishing grounds through all races at every point of habitation on this Planet. Grow up.

Oh, so you support culturally homogeneous societies that aggressive defend their culture and values?
Or is this just another emotional spout because you watched Killers of the Flower Moon or Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee this weekend?

White progs need to be removed from society.

Huh? He asked me to name a country that has not been conquered and I did.

You’re pretty emotional about a one word post, bud.

The land wasn’t stolen,. It was conquered. That’s been the way of human kind since the dawn of humanity. The advanced always defeats the stagnant.

So does that mean we don't have to worry about racism any more since the country was also (supposedly) built on slavery?

Japan.
This is an oft repeated (usually parroted) claim that I don't understand.
In the 19th century, Britain, the US, France, and Russia all occupied strategic locations in Japan and all forced the Shogunate to sign unequal treaties. Japan was absolutely westernized against its will. The fact that the government was so weak that they didn't even try to oust the Europeans doesn't mean they weren't invaded. If you know that resistance is futile so you decide to just lie back and take it, that doesn't mean you weren't raped.
Didn't you ever see The Last Samurai? That's what that whole movie was about.
Anyway, even if somehow that's supposed to not qualify, what about 1945? Japan was defeated and occupied at the end of WWII from 1945-1952.
How does Japan qualify as a nation that has never been conquered by any other countries?

Yes, Europeans did invade a land that was already inhabited when they colonized this country. It’s a travesty
Yes they did, and no, it's not.
It's just the way things were.
If it weren't for the United States and our military in the modern world, it would still be happening, far more often than it currently does. The US does more to facilitate peace and prosperity and equality and justice and human rights than any country—certainly in modern history—but perhaps in the history of the world.
Do we also do things that undermine or even run counter to those ideals because we believe they are in our best interest as a country—or, even for no other reason than that they will benefit wealthy influencers?
Yep, we do that too. And so does every other country on the planet, and they always have, and they always will as long as we're talking about fallen human governments.
But the net effect is still what it is. We still are responsible for having alleviated more poverty, more racism, more discrimination, more inequality, more oppression, than any other country.

Before you go, though, please tell us what country you are going to defect to that has such superior morals. This should be good...

Did anyone tell her the land was conquered by other tribes and then was conquered by pale face?
Conquering of people and their land has happened in every continent. Get over it.

I'm going to pretend you're a serious person and ask:
What nation would you think has better morals than the USA over the past 150 years?
Posted on 3/3/24 at 5:19 am to GetMeOutOfHere
My claim isn’t that an unnamed country is more moral than the US. My claim is that the USA has always been devoid of morals.

Wish someone would stand and remind them that it's not stolen land it's conquered land, big difference.
