Things to ignore..

Tribes felt deep resentment toward the U.S. federal government for the forced removal from their ancestral lands (e.g., the Trail of Tears) during the 1830s.

Confederate envoys promised the tribes full protection of their territories, local autonomy, and an independent Native American state if the South won the war.

And slavery existed in the Americas and most societies on Earth before European colonialism slash contact. Ironically it was the very idea of thralldom, serfdom, bondage, war captivity, etc being morally wrong that was among the classic liberal inventions of the pre- and post- Enlightenment that Europe virally infected the world with. That overall, evolving philosophical toolkit thus engendering a state of hypocrisy for the West and triggering its ensuing political neurosis (hegemonic guilt trip) that has had it apologizing and pathologically eating itself in increasingly more intricate ways to this day.

EXCERPT: Many Native-American tribes practiced some form of slavery before the European introduction of African slavery into North America.

The Haida and Tlingit peoples who lived along the southeastern Alaskan coast were traditionally known as fierce warriors and slave-traders, raiding as far as California. Slavery was hereditary after slaves were taken as prisoners of war. Among some Pacific Northwest tribes, about a quarter of the population were slaves. Other slave-owning tribes of North America were, for example, Comanche of Texas, Creek of Georgia, the fishing societies, such as the Yurok, that lived along the coast from what is now Alaska to California; the Pawnee, and Klamath.

Some tribes held people as captive slaves late in the 19th century. For instance, "Ute Woman", was a Ute captured by the Arapaho and later sold to a Cheyenne. She was kept by the Cheyenne to be used as a prostitute to serve American soldiers at Cantonment in the Indian Territory. She lived in slavery until about 1880. She died of a hemorrhage resulting from "excessive sexual intercourse".

There were differences between slavery as practiced in the pre-colonial era among Native Americans and slavery as practiced by Europeans after colonization. Whereas many Europeans eventually came to look upon slaves of African descent as being racially inferior, Native Americans took slaves from other Native American groups, and therefore viewed them as ethnically inferior.

In some cases, Native American slaves were allowed to live on the fringes of Native American society until they were slowly integrated into the tribe. The word "slave" may not accurately apply to such captive people.

When the Europeans made contact with the Native Americans, they began to participate in the slave trade. Native Americans, in their initial encounters with the Europeans, attempted to use their captives from enemy tribes as a "method of playing one tribe against another" in an unsuccessful game of divide and conquer.

Why do you feel the need to run cover for slavery? @_@

The genocide predates any apparent problem with slavery so to me it looks more like slavery is a spin you've just found to cover for genocide.

I don't get it. Is it the idea of men dressing up as women that disgusts her so much or the idea of someone not identifying with their born sex? There's a big difference there.

Probably the groomers, freaks, fetish weirdos, and degenerates.... like she literally said.

[Magical Realist]

I have no idea what those labels even mean nor how they tie into men dressing as women in pride parades. Is she saying they are somehow degenerate people just because they do that? Degenerated from what pray tell? How they dress in their daily lives?

[Syne]

If you don't see it, you're likely a degenerate who never will.

[Magical Realist]

She needs to chill and quit getting so enraged about basically nothing. Think of pride parades and drag queens as cosplay for LGBT. You might find it much more tolerable and "unserious" from that perspective..
