@orvillefindley8117 You are aware that, historically, the American Indian — particularly the Comanche — were as barbaric and feral as the Bantu races in Africa, right? That stuff about noble savages? Only the second part is true. There was always plenty of space out west. Still is. They didn’t want that space anymore.

@orvillefindley8117 But they did settle there. And the Indians saw this and wanted what the settlers had without putting in the effort. This theme would repeat itself in the American west and right now, in Europe. How do nomads “have land?”

What might be interesting, if they’re so intent on reinterpretation of classics, is a black lead in Doestoyevsky’s Notes from the Underground. Part of what makes blacks cast in non-black roles offensive is the hijacking of other people’s cultural virtue by the caprice of a casting agent: What if the role designed for the POC was made to be ambiguously moral, at best? Or a black Meursault cast in the Camus classic could also plausibly work and not be so transparent propaganda and give at least a nod to the spectacle of art and provide the viewer with at least an interesting and incarnation of this tired racial tactic.

@celtspeaksgoth7251 How did deSoto handle these tribes before the Northern Europeans arrived? Turns out white Europeans are about the only people through most of history that don’t throw spears at strangers in all situations and not even we refrain all the time. What do you think goes through a man’s mind when he returns from a hunt to find his wife and five daughters scalped in his front yard? Have you read the accounts of how the Indians treated their captives? Your post facto pity for them clouds your sense of reality. In the same way blacks have taken cars we invented and turned them into drive-by weapons, so did the Indians take the horses Europeans introduced to them and use them to raid settlements. And just like the people that loot now, they weren’t stealing food for sustenance — they were stealing rum and beads.

@orvillefindley8117 You’re not big on answering questions — de Soto; what was his solution to the “civilized tribes?” That you would think so little of people that you prefer to pity them and invent lies about their history over the truth isn’t a healthy step.
