Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I don’t know that I agree with this on its face, ethnostates are bad, full stop. If you’re committed to an ethnostate you’re ultimately committed to fascism to keep that ethnostate pure. And where do you draw the line, should every group the Nazis targeted get an ethnostate to themselves?
But if that is the decision we landed on, we should’ve given them like, Bavaria. Not a random location already inhabited by people unrelated to the Holocaust.
Comrade I have some bad news for you about Utah history
Wtf are you talking about, indigenous people still exist.
Yes, there was a genocide against indigenous peoples, and also that same genocide still continues. You called it
It's racist to claim that indigenous people were fully wiped out, when they have survived and continue to live and struggle against the ongoing genocidal violence against them. Pretending that they were all wiped out is harmful to indigenous people and furthers the narrative of colonizers. If indigenous people were all gone (they're not), then there would be no one to pay reparations to, no one to cede land back to. The idea that indigenous people are all dead and gone is part of the ongoing narrative of violence against them. While it is true that indigenous peoples are still struggling against the genocide of governments and settler colonialism, it is also true that many indigenous cultures have undergone a renaissance, with renewed projects to teach and preserve languages, and online spaces for sharing culture. Talking about the genocide against them like it was a "completed project" is wrong and racist. Despite the harm done to them, indigenous people still exist, and we should listen to them and work with them to create a better future.
You should educate yourself regarding indigenous peoples.
