It's Columbus Day. So this is your periodic reminder that Native American tribes all lived in peaceful harmony, holding hands and singing songs of love and hope, while prancing around in fields with unicorns and woodland fairies

Until the white people came and killed them all

*sigh*
Apparently, this needs to be explained. I am clearly mocking many people's "understanding" of history, not the history itself. History is full of brutality and conquest. Until relatively recently, it had been the rule, not the exception. And that includes Native Americans.

Pretending like Native Americans were innocent little care bears who were victimized by evil white monsters is insanely disingenuous and wholly ahistorical. It also blatantly ignores literally the entirety of human history.

So, if that is you, I am mocking you.
