Arguing for indigenous sovereignty with other settlers

Start with Kevin Costner.
Also, yes they should.
If you commit evil, evil should be done to you so you can compensate your victims properly.
not sure about that one.
we are at this point talking about the descendants of people that did these things
Good thing those descendants have the same start as the descendants of those their ancestors brutalized, right?

This point doesnt follow from what GarfieldYaoi was advocating for with the language he used. He said "evil should be done [onto evil]". Unless he thinks reparations and Land Back are "doing evil" onto white people (which would be fucking silly).
I don't think the proper response is "do nothing," either.
To paraphrase Malcolm X, the knives should be pulled out of the descendants' backs so the wounds can heal. While I don't call for more knives, the wounds are still there and they are passed down generationally.
Yeah obviously I agree with that and Malcolm was spot on. I totally support Land Back initiatives. But I think usernamesaredifficul was responding to the way GarfieldYaoi phrased it. I'd be suprised if he thinks nothing should be done. Like hey if he thinks doing Land Back and/or reperations would be bad because it "punishes people for what their ancestors did" then thats obivously wrong and fuck him. But I think it was in response to Garf's idea that "evil" should be done.

We should do reverse conialism where us anglo Americans get sent back to Brittany to claim "disorganized" land there. Just a few guns and I can claim a tescos for my own and start raising cattle there

Can I be the Judas Goat
the proper response to this is "yes"
I'm kinda confused by these statements. Was there any real expectation that people would willingly hand over the land they committed genocide for to the victims because we told them so? Would Mexican or Black Americans also need to give back any land?
IMO, the white people in this meme give the correct response. That is exactly what you would have to do to get any land or sovereignty back lol.
