Eh, both sides have some dirt on their hands, if you ask me. I just think that it's weird to be frothing over Native American issues on Thanksgiving. I mean, there is a connection, but the average person wouldn't care about it.
Oh, I completely agree on that one and my post was meant to be intentionally ridiculous and ironic.
Seriously, sperging over Native Americans and Thanksgiving is a remnant of the late 60's and early 70's with the American Indian Movement that was part of the New Left and it eventually percolated into the wider pop culture which is where the Woke Left picked it up.
Even the AIM picked that one since it's a core part of the American historiography and one of the few big moments where the Natives are explicitly depicted as good guys, especially for the generation that grew up on old 1950's Westerns where the Injuns were the bad guys
