And the Musqueam would have chopped his head off and bathed in his blood. But they were just innocent sweethearts!

If I'm DeSantis, I call the UF BOT today and tell them to get that guy off their list.

I wonder if this guy is going to give is 5000 sqft home back to the Musqueam.


I have a retarded “stolen land” cousin; I told him if it appalls him that badly, he needs to donate his house and land to a Native American cause, renounce his citizenship and move to the UK where his ancestral roots are.

I’m sure he has made it known that he shouldn’t be hired.

Why is the rightful owner of any land always whoever was there directly before white people took over? If we're trying to be fair shouldn't we try to figure out who was actually there first? Land/countries have exchanged hands since the beginning of human history but it's only land currently occupied by white people that has this issue. Either we try to acknowledge who actually belongs everywhere or we don't do it at all. All these dumb games only ever apply to white people.

It's impossible for me not to think of the "Am I Racist?" movie when someone does this. Everyone who gives a land acknowledgement is a clown in my eyes.

These land acknowledgements crack me up. Unless you give the land back, then stating all this stuff basically says “Just as a reminder, in case you forgot, we took your land.”

Yeah but it was also someone else’s before them so is he just gonna be a bigot and not acknowledge the people that were there before the Musqueam who probably scalped them?

My only real problem with them is how hollow they are. It's pure kabuki.

Someone breaks into your home, moves in, then starts a livestream from your living room, “I’m coming to you from the unceded land of the Lightning family.”

Thanks for rubbing salt in the wound.

Haha. So, it was completely unrelated to his spending spree and the audit?

He was president of the University of British Columbia at the time, and it probably occurred around 2020. Good call.
