The post is about the genocide of Native Americans. Natives originally lived in the Midwest, and now they don’t.

Also, Indiana is the only state to be taken over by the KKK, and the North was racist in its own way.

They lived in the entire US, particularly the south, as did millions of slaves who suffered centuries of genocidal brutality and worse.

And as a non-white American , you are infinitely full of shit.

I’ve lived in most of the country, I have NEVER experienced such utter and brutal racism as in the vile, depraved south.

This is because after the civil war we let the slaver class live in the south, and they just took over as soon as our back was turned.

Worst decision in this country’s history, we would be so much greater of a nation if we’d simply dealt with the problem then instead of letting their filth fester and spread. Notice how Germany is a good country nowadays while the south is still as worthless as ever.

Indiana had racism, but comparing it to the south is like comparing a sneeze and ebola.

Notice how Germany is a good country nowadays

That really isn’t true, and it’s not true for the same reasons as you describe of the American South. There was relatively little denazification in West Germany, and the West German government eventually became the German government, so now we have a country where the supposedly liberal parties respond to the blatantly fascist AfD by adopting their policy positions.

It really is, except for East Germany, which got rid of their Nazi trash and replaced them with Soviet trash, which, just like Russia has, swerved them hard nazi again.

Maybe you haven’t experienced it. But I know a Navajo man very well who was raped by missionaries in New Mexico in the 60s, and that’s a VERY common story. You don’t know shit, shut the fuck up.
