That’s not weird. That’s how functional societies reconcile when they aren’t subjected to endless propaganda and fear mongering.

I mean, it is weird in the sense that it is unusual. But that doesn’t make it bad, in fact it should become more normal.

Yeah, I wouldn’t say history shows humans usually treat outsiders really nicely but I agree this should be an example we strive for.

No what’s ‘weird’ is so many not understanding that ‘weird’ isn’t automatically negative. or maybe more disturbing that so many automatically go there at first instinct.

“Surprising” or “unexpected” are probably a better words due to connotations and all.

True. Ideally the Amish would have a “immigrated”, assimilated, and become another tribe in the area hundreds of years ago. However, this is still a better outcome than the tribes still litigating treaties signed hundreds of years ago, like in Oklahoma.

Migration leading to mixed cultures instead of genocide and colonization. Americans: “This is so weird!”

“In this here melting pot, we burn away all our differences until we’re left with only the pure white flame of Christian nationalism.”

I had to put the statement in quotes because while being hyperbole, it’s not too far from how some people think, and I don’t want to be confused with those folks.

They’re implying that the US was founded on migration which led to genocide and colonization.
