Wasn’t Penn a Quaker who lived peacefully with native Americans? And quakers were antislavery. In fact, Pennsylvania was a haven for freed slaves thanks to the Underground Railroad essentially run by quakers. [/quote]

I'm sure of you talked to the native Americans who experienced white settlers encroaching on their land, they would have a different story. For instance, they might say that they were forced to live peacefully next to their captors and oppressors.:. But sure let's Romanticize history. [/quote]

Boo hoo.  All throughout history there have been winners and losers. Natives got conquered by a superior force with more modern technology. Same story that has occurred for multiple millennia.   Maybe they should tear down all of the ancient Roman structures in Africa and the Middle East too because they were conquered by the Romans?

Americans are really, really dumb these days.  DEI is a cancer on their brains.  Everything is racist. Everything is oppression. Diversity at all costs is the be all and end all. It's so refreshing traveling for extended periods of time and seeing how the rest of the world operates and does not give two craps about this kind of stuff. [/quote]
