    i mean not just the south, the west and midwest too where do u think he got all those ideas about contiguous “living space” and about exterminating the people who already live in the land u want to steel and about consecration camps and reservations that continuously move towards a frontier until the displaced people have nowhere to go, amerikkka from its very inception was the template for nazi germany.

      I lived in the Midwest, it’s nothing like that.

      That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard.

      The south literally fought a war (Texas fought 2) to preserve their practices of slavery and genocide.

      The Midwest fought, killed, and died to stop them.

        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.
