And the Lakota Sioux took it from the Cheyenne tribe by arrow point only 100 years prior to that. So yea, the Sioux had the land stolen from them by force, but they stole it by force themselves before that. And by this point, the US has controlled the land longer than the Sioux ever did.

Firstly, you disgust me, I can see you are refraining from using a slur, in future I encourage you to be honest, we see you.
Secondly, the fascist carving was undertaken by a member of the klan, who’d previously done something similar with a confederate general.

Being mad about not using a slur is one of the things I have seen on this website.

What slur are you talking about
I_Has_A_Hat@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I honestly can’t even think of what slur someone would think I’m avoiding? Like, what would even fit?
