I think a better question is how many want to leave the reservation if they had the financial means to do so? The reservations are often not even anywhere remotely close to the tribe’s historic lands, and many of the people living on them probably would enjoy life elsewhere. Giving them that freedom is a virtuous act. Largely because we, collectively, put these people on the reservations, they deserve the agency to decide if they want to leave.
I mean 50 years ago gets you to 1971. You frankly need to shut your stupid fucking mouth about “durrr he is denying genocide again.” Seriously, if you can’t debate honestly, fuck off. No one is fucking denying anything, I’m saying people who only care about “awareness” campaigns about decades old bad things, but aren’t working to improve the lives of living, breathing people today, are just “leisure activists.”
I never claimed it was either or, at all. Maybe you could point to where I did (you won’t, because you can’t.) What I did say is people who are focusing on awareness should also focus on improving present day quality of life, if all you can do is keep saying the kind of mealy mouthed nonsense like you did in the prior two passages, you’re obviously not someone who cares much about the modern day plight of native Americans.
I mean I haven’t “guessed” one way or the other, right? I haven’t said I’m against them being publicized, nor have I really said I’m “for it”, but as as general rule I’m in favor of exposing under-reported, or unknown, prior bad acts on a societal level. For that matter I’m always in favor of knowing more accurate details about the past. You seem to be very stupid, because several of your comments here basically seem to be saying “oh so you want to improve native lives today, that means you think we can’t also raise awareness about past wrongs, and that you’re against raising awareness about past wrongs.” It’d be amazing if any of you nitwits actually could debate honestly, but sadly I doubt you can.
