Fuck no


They live like poor people.

They still keep some traditions, but it's primarily roleplaying at this point

Most are christian now adays, and they just do some old ceremonies like how some Euros have traditional pagan shit.

A lot of them are alchoholics that live in trailer parks

wow i didn't know things were THAT bad. hows the situation in the red areas then?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reservation_poverty

They ride horses and hunt sometimes but no, not really.
Imagine a trailer park in the desert, maybe some stables and old trucks. They get NEETbux for being natives, they get drunk easily, they're pretty friendly actually and always willing to help but the ones that are less than 50% native are obnoxious city libcunts that whine on and on about oppressors every holiday season. I mean a lot of real natives do too but not as much as the city ones do. Sometimes reservation look like 3rd world villages, sometimes they have these big modern Casinos and hotels. Oh yeah another way they make money is by owning huge Casinos, gambling is legal for them. Pacific Northwest natives are pretty chill and are bro tier, Alaskan natives seem cool too, at least from a non-alaskan view. Like said they're christian but still do ceremonies.

I'm pretty sure that's what he was talking about, there are a lot of government subsidies which breeds a culture of alcoholism and crime

Do you still live like you did in Denmark 500 years ago plowing the local king or knight's field with cattle hitched to a plow and dropping dead at 45 from tuberculosis?

another fun fact, Oklahoma (that state above texas) used to be named the Indian Territory, because the government sent most of them there during the land boom. Sadly whites also moved there so they don't even have their own state anymore.

Since when does your continent have horses again?

t. Geronimo

Since 500 years ago when you Europeans brought them over from Spain.

back then they did when they were introduced at least. I wasnt thinking straight but yeah at least in the southwest since the spanish came they've been riding horses for quite a while, they were the original cowboys, close enough right?

Indians incorporated horses into their culture incredibly fast

touchy much

Do you think we've gone without horses this entire time? Have you seen any movies about the old west?

yeah it was like 1519 when they spread throughout Mexico (which included our southwest) by 1530 they were common

It depends. Some of them are among the poorest places in the entire country. Others are not so bad. I lived near a reservation for a while, but it was more integrated into the surrounding area, and looked pretty normal. They held a big festival every summer.

sounds sick. but i'm asking what's the situation in the red areas now that you told me the one in the white areas

yes

Feel bad for the Natives desu
Real shame

...

...

>native tacos

I'll never really understand this sentiment.
Or why forcing them on reservations is seen as such a bad thing.

By the time of Andrew Jackson it was basically either out right genocide the Indians or force them onto their reservations.

They got the better end of the deal. There was never a possibility of millions of whites leaving America.

...

I go to the big one in Wisconsin every summer.
It's the Menominee reservation, they live in regular houses, have their own school and university, they also have a nice casino so they have money.

It looks like any other area, except during pow wow time.

The tacos are pretty good. They are based on "frybread" (basically flour tortillas fried in lard) with smoked salmon filling.

I don't know if this is your Danish "education" kicking in or if your making a "lol America is bad joke" regardless, we are talking about the Indian population in the red areas, and Denmark has a lower GDP per capita than most American states, lost one third of it's land to Sweden in an unnecessary war, got demolished by the nazis and is flat

>and Denmark has a lower GDP per capita than most American states

$53,000? That would still put it within the top 10 wealthiest states.

Cherokee are the only indians that matter tbqh

He's obviously talking about nominal not per capita

Both

If you factor in PP though, Europeans generally have less disposable income than Americans and higher cost of living.

how the actual fuck is North Dakota so rich?

Wages are high because nobody would live there otherwise.

oil?

>injuns
>poor
Don't they own all the casinos and drain all the gambling money from the white devils?

~30% of reservation people are below the poverty line

They say,
>We are getting our land back one quarter at a time
Doesn't make too much sense, just a saying, but some have lots of money.

My white area is probably more poor

>My white area is probably more poor
I doubt honestly
My county is only on average 4k higher per capita than the poverty line
Yet only 11% are below the line

I really don't know, rural U.P., "rich" is anything over $30k

True.
Growing up I told someone me mom made 80k and they didn't even think I was telling the truth. Because their parents made like ~22k

Since the Spanish brought them here

Indian land is like a fenced wildlife reserve, or a zoo. A nice way to keep that scum away from decent folks. Quite a splendid idea.
