          good fucking god I had no clue the extinction of the buffalo was another thing purposefully pushed by the Amerikkkan state. Legitimately cartoon level villains of history

              best case scenario they're clueless about Amerikkka's crimes (or at least the extent), normally it's just the good ole racism

            The amerikkkan genocide of the indigenous (along with Jim Crow South) were direct inspirations for a certain axis leader.

              Oh im well aware of that, it’s just that I thought the extinction of the buffalo was more of an accident than literally a casualty of Amerikkka’s genocide

      The solipsism is sounding here. The world was not always as it is now. Conquest was the way the world worked for a very long time. You think these people had any concept of the damage they were doing? All you have to do is take the one extra conceptual step. Don't be so lazy.
