He called me a setter and a nazi out of the blue, and I asked him if he slanders everyone or if he has a reason for saying that about me, then he replies with this legendary quote:

If you’re Amerikan, then you live in the bowels of the single most brutal settler-colonial entity to exist in the modern era. “Settling” is not a once-and-done action; it is a constant state as long as you are on settled land.

    Honestly it all is ludicrous. You absolutely should know your history but trying to hold every white person in existence liable for the actions of people who died long before we were all born is silly. You can’t change the past you can only make the future. You might as well blame my dog for the suffering of the past. It accomplishes nothing. What’s worse is that some people have developed a complex about the history especially if they of a race that was harmed historically.

    Don’t blame people alive today for mistakes and cruelty of the past. That is unfair to everyone involved.

      Nobody is trying to do that, and you know it.

        If you click on the link you can see someone call for my death only because I’m american, so yeah.

        Also I was banned from Lemmy.ml for being a bigot when I called them an idiot, but the incitement of violence is still there
