I'm proud and happy that this land, America, was conquered by European explorers

I’m happy that this land was conquered. It is an immeasurably better place now than it would have been had Europeans never showed up. I’m proud of our history and grateful. I will never apologize for it. I will celebrate our heroes and laugh in your face when your cry about it.

None of you would want to actually live in the primitive cultures you idolize. None of you. You prefer our civilization even as you whine about it. You feast on the bounty while denigrating the men who provided it to you. You’re ungrateful, despicable brats. The lowest of the low
I'll also add that the Europeans were morally correct and righteously just to put down the barbaric tribes that once occupied this land, those tribes that had even worse slavery and torture practices that the left decries western civilization and white people for.
When the Europeans set about on a task to civilize and tame those barbaric and cruel people, it was one of the most important events in human history and we are all better for it today.

Posting on iPhones complaining about oppression and unfairness while in line at Starbucks is peak liberal logic .

It doesn’t even matter. There is no room for discussion of the morality of long ago history. Such discussions get bogged down and go nowhere.
What matters is where we are now, and this Matt Walsh fellow is correct. We have the most comfortable lives in human history.

I was gonna say that this continent would look like Africa had it not been for Europeans, but then, some our inner cities already do look like Mogadishu and Lagos

The ridiculous mindset that this was a native utopia before the Europeans of the 15th century is ignorant.
First off, Europeans and Africans as well as Asians had been here for centuries prior.
Second, a group of "historians" and leftists has sold the majority on the idea that natives rarely killed each other in battle. Complete farce as archeologist have proven. native tribes were no more or less violent than any other culture. When given the opportunity to dominate another tribe they did.
Europeans were simply further advanced in weaponry and tactics - end of story. Once tribes saw the advancement they traded for it and attacked their neighbors or joined forces with Europeans.
What happen in the Western hemisphere mirrored what happened in Europe decades before and and up to the 1700s. The Scottish Highland Clans were decimated by superior tactics over time as were the Irish by the English.

How can you be proud of something you had no part in? That took place centuries ago?
Idiot.

Yep, it seems like everyone wants to migrate to European countries or where they have conquered. Must have done something right.

God that was awesome.
My ancestors came here in the 1600s, I'm an OG.

Yes. I'm both happy and sad at the same time. Happy that my oppressed ancestors boarded those rinky-dink wooden boats and crossed the Atlantic to escape tyranny from the Crown.
Sad that so many Americans are so willing to surrender their freedom to a bunch of communist radicals. Communist who would plunge them back into tyranny.

I'm not. It's embarrassing.
I decided today to go everywhere in just a loin cloth and I only spoke native.
Needless to say, I need bail.

I didn't know until recently that the family of Montezuma moved to Spain and given Spanish titles. Descendants of Emperor Montezuma II survive today. Kind of kills the narrative that it was the Europeans who were barbaric.

Moctezuma II’s son, Don Pedro de Moctezuma Tlacahuepan Ihualicahuaca also embraced Christianity and his son (M2’s grandson) Don Diego Luis de Moctezuma Ihuitl Temoc moved to Spain. Don Diego Luis’s son Don Pedro Tesifón de Moctezuma y de la Cueva was created Count of Moctezuma by Philip IV of Spain in 1627. In 1766, the holder of this title was named a Grandee of Spain.
In 1865 this line of descent was further honoured by being elevated to Duke of Moctezuma by Isabella II of Spain. The current head of this branch of the House of Moctezuma is Juan José Marcilla de Teruel-Moctezuma y Jiménez, 5th Duke of Moctezuma de Tultengo, 15th Marquis of Tenebrón and Viscount of Ilucán.

One leftist transplant from Oregon pontificated to me about "the noble savage" that the Europeans despoiled.
Proceeded to tell him what they used to do to each other that on the pain threshold/scale rivalled, even exceeded, anything that was done during the Inquisition.
Particularly among the plains Indians, but especially among the Incas, Mayans and Aztecs.
It was just one culture with a propensity for cruelty finding another one, with one of them having the wherewithal to win.

Europeans kick arse at creating productive civilizations and then finding a way to destroy them from within.

Do they think no one was going to discover it? Perhaps the greatest piece of real estate on the planet was just going to sit virtually vacant for centuries?
What do they think would've happened had the Chinese or Japanese discovered it?
