    Why feel guilty? You’re not the ones responsible.

    We still enjoy the benefits of it, and Native Americans still get fucked over by the US government on the regular. Also, have you considered we just maybe think ethnic cleansing is wrong regardless of who does it.

    But don’t let me stop you from psychoanalyzing the motives of people you’ve never had a conversation with.
