Mind you, most European innovation came from Asia and the Middle East anyway. The Aztecs, Maya, and Incas were doing remarkably well, and there was a lot of trade and agriculture going on. We certainly weren't helping them by stepping in.
The fact that you don't seem to understand what this is about kinda makes you seem a bit jumpy to use the "racist" card huh? Kinda makes you sound like some people on the other side of the spectrum huh? What's the term... Right wing PC police?
The point I'm trying to make is that the crimes committed against my ancestors were horrible, but no-one owes anyone an apology.
It occurred hundreds of years ago, and blaming oneself or anyone else for the sins of their fathers or grandfathers will only condemn us all to an endless cycle of resentment.
And then the so-called Native Americans migrated there from another place long ago. If you are going to say that Americans are immigrants because their ancestors migrated from Europe, then you must say that Native Americans are immigrants, because their ancestors migrated from somewhere else.
What about their considered native? And the Europeans won the land in combat. Even if it was unfair. Illegal immigrants are people who were not born in the United States, and are migrating to the United States illegally. Not white people whose ancestors migrated there and were born in America. And why white people? Black people migrated here as well. And don't go on about how they were unwilling to migrate here. Many Africans sold their own people into slavery, and there were many white slaves. White slaves kidnapped by Africans and sold into slavery. I have no patience for your kind of jacked ignorance.
For thinking that there were white slaves? No, I'm not. The native American genocide was a tragedy, but we are not immigrants for our ancestors being immigrants. And there were white slaves. Go Google it. Look at some real history instead of whatever your teacher said.
You bore me to death with this white immigrants. Do you ever wonder what happened to ancestors of those native Americans. They were wiped out. Years before white foot landed on the west coast. Russia was native-"frei" by genocide of mass proportion. And they weren't even hunter gathering society. But real societies. Do they take immigrants now? Or last two centuries? No, they expel them. Most of American Jews ran away from antisemitic Russia. And nobody bats an eye. Go spit on Americans for not letting arm choppers for thievery law abiding backwater toothless unemancipated jackasses. How many Syrians went to asad friendly Russia? I hate you leftists so much
White people didn't create american society. They did create civilization. And a bunch of other stuff. But that doesn't matter coz we're pretty fuckin racist.
I can't believe white people were civilized. I mean, it's not as if the Maya, Inca, and Aztecs already had sprawling civilizations. It's not as if there was already a heavy trade system going on in North America.

They all died out. They weren't a modern civilization. And if anything the meaning of "American civilization" refers to america becoming.... well... america?
No doubt about it, white people colonized North America & pretty much took over from the indigenous population. Maybe it shouldn't have been done but that was centuries ago. However now we should not allow other people to colonize here. Now we have the understanding and the strength to resist it.
