A sacred mountain range taken from the Lakota Sioux by gunpoint in the Great Sioux War of 1876.

And the Lakota Sioux took it from the Cheyenne tribe by arrow point only 100 years prior to that. So yea, the Sioux had the land stolen from them by force, but they stole it by force themselves before that. And by this point, the US has controlled the land longer than the Sioux ever did.

On the other hand, the US did have a formal treaty with the Sioux that granted them the land which the US willfully broke when gold was discovered.

Firstly, you disgust me, I can see you are refraining from using a slur, in future I encourage you to be honest, we see you.

Secondly, the fascist carving was undertaken by a member of the klan, who'd previously done something similar with a confederate general.

Being mad about not using a slur is one of the things I have seen on this website.

What slur are you talking about

[–] I_Has_A_Hat@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I honestly can't even think of what slur someone would think I'm avoiding? Like, what would even fit?

His favorite game to play outside was cowboys and Indians. Tales of the American West were very popular among boys in Austria and Germany. Books by James Fenimore Cooper and especially German writer Karl May were eagerly read and re-enacted. May, who had never been to the American West, invented a hero named Old Shatterhand, a white man who always won his battles with Native Americans, defeating his enemies through sheer will power and bravery. Young Hitler read and reread every one of May’s books about Old Shatterhand, totaling more than 70 novels. He continued to read them even as Führer. During the German attack on the Soviet Union he sometimes referred to the Russians as Redskins and ordered his officers to carry May’s books about fighting.
