smile and shrug

Not my fault they couldn't handle small pox

survival of the fittest is no laughing matter

"That's funny coming from an ass that voted for mass immigration of Muslims and Mexicans."

Fuckers should have built a wall.

Clash of civilizations. The Europeans were superior.

>100 million
>in 1850, injuns would have been 10% of the worlds population

It's a shame to celebrate when we missed some.

"Who said we were done?"

Inform my cousin that they were so retarded they hadn't even invented the wheel

This
Most of the deaths were due to illness, not by white people going around killing redskins for sport

eat some yummy turkey and say nothing because this isn't the time for that shit

Just mention that the original agreement between the Pilgrims and the Indians was never broken for as long as their compact was valid. You could also say that Thanksgiving is what happens when diversity is appreciated individually but not destroyed and also that "it's what could have been".
There are so many pro-liberal slants you can put thanksgiving in to try and redpill idiot libs.

"Who gives a fuck. Pass the potatoes."

Oy vey. The 100 gorillion.

White guilt is an invasive construct created to reintroduce original sin to an increasingly atheist society.

Agree and amplify

Well its actually a celebration of a good harvest but ok.

"Wow I guess immigrants CAN destroy the country they move to"

Checked as fuck

ha ha this!

"Yeah, so?"

Thanksgiving has nothing to do with indians. It was established by Lincoln over 200 years after the Pilgrims. It's a religious holiday for giving thanks to God, and it's also celebrated in Canada, (no pilgrims ever there), and similar days of giving thanks were being celebrated by Christians long before any of us stepped foot on this continent.

Dumb indians couldn't even make guns

>well, yeah, wtf do you think I'm celebrating?

A legion of horribles, hundreds in number, half naked or clad in costumes attic or biblical or wardrobed out of a fevered dream with the skins of animals and silk finery and pieces of uniform still tracked with the blood of prior owners, coats of slain dragoons, frogged and braided cavalry jackets, one in a stovepipe hat and one with an umbrella and one in white stockings and a bloodstained wedding veil and some in headgear or cranefeathers or rawhide helmets that bore the horns of bull or buffalo and one in a pigeontailed coat worn backwards and otherwise naked and one in the armor of a Spanish conquistador, the breastplate and pauldrons deeply dented with old blows of mace or sabre done in another country by men whose very bones were dust and many with their braids spliced up with the hair of other beasts until they trailed upon the ground and their horses' ears and tails worked with bits of brightly colored cloth and one whose horse's whole head was painted crimson red and all the horsemen's faces gaudy and grotesque with daubings like a company of mounted clowns, death hilarious, all howling in a barbarous tongue and riding down upon them like a horde from a hell more horrible yet than the brimstone land of Christian reckoning, screeching and yammering and clothed in smoke like those vaporous beings in regions beyond right knowing where the eye wanders and the lip jerks and drools.

nice

>yeah, but your gender studies are based on socialists and socialism killed more people than nazis. Checkmate.
Now hand over the Turkey

That its true and that the same thing would have occurred if the shoe was on the other foot.

Unless she wants to acknowledge that some races are more violent than others (making her a racist) then she has to accept that fact.

"Nice!" Just keeps getting better and better!"

make fart sounds and moans while fisting the Turkey, a family tradition.
>everyone in family laughs and starts having a good time
>they sit their indignant, with angry body language that their pseudo intellectual foray into biased history doesn't impact a goddamn thing and won't change anyone's mind
>proceed to make Indian jokes the rest of the day, mixing up the dots and feathers just to rile the cousin up a bit more
>end of the day, take him to the side, be a bro to him, drink a beer, talk about something unrelated and make him walk away happy so he realizes that he doesn't have to be a faggot all the time and he's still family
>Goes back to school a bit more red pilled than before

Rape her in front of your family and scream:

THIS IS MY TURKEY NOW

The week should fear the strong.

drink to that name

>"So why the fuck are you here celebrating it?"

Remind him that natives were killing each other in the millions long before pale face showed up. Tribes would slaughter each other to control regions for thier resources. The idea of conquest wasn't something introduced them by the new comers. They were just as savage as the pale face.

What happened after the pale face came to the new world is where the irony is at. Infant deaths plummeted, life expectancy skyrocketed. Famine was obliterated. And a general bitterness and good old fashion racism united the many natives against the pale face.

Generations later natives divided into to two flocks--

A. Those who adapted and preserved heritage through culture exchange

B. Those who denied reality and lost thier actually heritage through self-lies

The Native today is much like the Confederates after the Civil War, warped and delusional.

>indians didn't believe in land ownership
>indians didn't have a formal recognized government

Actually the indians had invented the wheel - wheels have been found in ancient ruins.

bing.com/images/search?q=mayan wheel toy&qpvt=mayan wheel toy&qpvt=mayan wheel toy&qpvt=mayan wheel toy&FORM=IGRE

Nobody knows why they didn't seem to use them for freight or chariots. Wheels need roads, but the nomadic tribes we had in NA didn't have or need roads so of course they weren't interested, and the non-nomadic mesa indians didn't have a good use case for them either, nor the coastal/river indians who could just move stuff on boats. The stationary, highly developed civilizations did have cart-worthy roads, but tended to just use pack animals instead of carts for reasons which are still unknown. Some of their wheeled toys are cart-like, and we know they had some very smart people who would have recognized how to scale carts up. But for some reason they didn't.

Tell them to stop changing definitions or else you'll start changing the definition of "Brutal Anal Rape" to mean the warm feeling that you get in your heart when you do something charitable.

It's pretty much the same bullshit they do when they decide they want to shit on something, but instead you're doing it in reverse.

Send them this

So what you're saying is that they invented the wheel but were too stupid to realize the implications it could have?

Put on the Redskins game and watch him melt down.

This is exactly what the faggot cousin would say. Do you think the Mayans were anywhere near Plymouth Rock?

Tell her you identify as a native american and offer to scalp her to help expatiate the sins of her ancestors.

Talk to me after you've stopped celebration of Purim.

yeah, those jews shouldnt have murdered them.

>why couldnt they just kill each other like everyone else at the time?
>that way we wouldnt have to celebrate this shit tier holiday.

I fucking hate thanksgiving, because my entire family is a bunch of shitters.
It it was just me and my parents, it'd be a decent holiday, but nooooo we just have to involve all of our asshole trailer trash relatives cuz its thanksgiving!

ask him if we should stop celebrating valintines day and christmas along with his birthday and new year, because there all irrelevent

Nice iPhone you got there, faggot.

>tap glass with my knife but a little too hard causing it to smash
>Play it off like I meant to do it
>Clear throat

Let me tell you about the Jews.

hey, if they take your land, they aren't aliens

Can't get past 2 minutes of that smug fucker. This is better.

Made me laugh irl/10

"Back off nigga, I'm trying to be comfy like on this most bountiful Thanksgiving day. Come at me like that again nigga and I'll shove all the stuffing we have up your FUCKING URETHRA!

"And, your point?"

Easy

Native Population pre-columbus is estimated at ~3m. This is accepted amongst anthropologist, numbers larger than 7m are typically propaganda. They use the hunter gather per km^2 method to determine 3m or so.

1860s consensus put the native population from 1500s at 400,000. So they had a loss of like a percentage point a year, i forget the math.

They are now at 5.2m so under whites they were allowed to grow 2.2m.

The decline was due to inter-marriage, some disease, some warring with tribes and settlers. But ultimately they could not reproduce as nomadic lifestyles do not yield large populations.

And the smallpox blankets? What say you?

Shut the fuck up, Shitting Bull, and split these kings. And where the hell is that cocktail waitress with my fire water?

Nope. I'm saying that the reasons they didn't are unknown. For the Incans it was probably due to the unfavorable terrain. For the Mayans and Aztecs it may have been terrain as well. Or it could have been religious. Or maybe they were worried about the mass unemployment and civil unrest if all the pack-slaves weren't needed anymore - we just don't know.

China invented the trebuchet and gunpowder and did fuck-all with them - would you like to further beclown yourself by claiming they were too stupid to build cannons and scale up their man-sized trebuchets into the castle-breakers that Europe built?

I'm gonna need Japan to calm the fuck down a bit

> using bing for anything other than the porn clip thumbnails.

Ishyggittydoo

"I don't care, so please pass the potatoes you commie shit"

Tell her that thanksgiving was a common thing families did back then and it wasn't even a special holiday or anything.

>smallpox blankets given on purpose

Ah yes. I forgot how the early Colonists discovered Germ theory during that several month boat ride to the New World, and then refused to share it with the world until a few centuries later.

>100 million

That's nearly 1/3 of the total US population
today.

That's more than all the deaths from WW1 and WW2 combined.

Could you imagine how many skeletons there would be literally everywhere if there was anything close to a fraction of this number?

"It sure is" while gorging my mouth with stuffing.

That narrative is such fucking bullshit

"More turkey for me!"

Natives are just butthurt because they lost. Eat your turkey.

I told this to my real life faggot cousin and he informed me that they knew how disease worked back then. He didn't provide any proof he just did the smug, "trust me kiddo" thing, insisting he was 100% correct and that I had been reading nonsense.

A good trick is to make them do this enough times that people recognize at least once that their argument is total shit. Now my liberal faggot cousin who is approaching 50 is ridiculed by everyone else for being so "out there".

Isn't it normal for a country to celebrate winning a major war?

>That its true
It's verifiably false

Europeans would know about infections and contamination. They would know not to reuse a blanket belonging to a sick person.

It wouldn't take a microbiology degree to see indians suffering from infection and helping it to spread. just saying.

Ask them why they are here celebrating it then

No, you dumb fucks. There were no horses on the American continent, nor cows, nor any large pack animals.

Wheels are kinda pointless without strong animals to tow your carts.

>i don't care, i'm here for the food

The same way my ancestors did
>"hey user want some booze"

>can't get past 2 minutes of that smug fucker

Sup Forums is an 18+ board

Punch them in the face then rape them to make the Thanksgiving celebration more like the original.

Never happened, at oeast not as a deliberate strategy - it wasn't needed. The europeans were infested with the common cold, flu, chicken pox, and yes smallpox, and just shaking hands or fucking the chief's daughter behind the tent was enough to pass them on. The native indians were infected with a variety of intestinal parasites that they gave the europeans in return, unfortunately these were more annoying/colorful than lethal.

On the plus side the europeans taught us distillation, so we've got that going for us, which is nice.

Source: me. I'm a native american.

Way too rational and practical for Sup Forums

To be fair, the wheel is an absolutely useless invention without its cousin-invention -- the axle.

You can't do shit with a wheel if it doesn't have something shoved through the middle of it.

the weak cry because the strong win

>Wheels need roads
Ackwuely... You don't need roads for ANYTHING
we expanded westward without them just fine

It's a celebration of victory over an entire hemisphere of savages.

So 70% fewer people in the US than today back in the 1600s?
I call fucking bullshit.

He talks like every other fedora tipper that wants to tell you why he knows god isn't real. checked

I have one cousin who is a nurse and the rest are heroin addicts.

>Source: me. I'm a native american.
Did your tribe vote Trump
I get the feeling most natives would

That was a pretty good video
Though he should make his videos shorter if they are intended to be normie friendly

Amen, praise the pilgrims. Can't forget best president Jackson's trail of tears, eiither. Pass the peas.

"Yeah, it's such a great holiday!"

Point out that the Native American were a largely peaceful people who accepted new immigrants, helping them with food and shelter. At some point a new immigrant population will do to us what we did to the Native Americans.

We should learn from history so we can protect ourselves and our way of life.

>Might is right.
>That should tell you all you need to know about immigration
>Nobody likes you

Tell her it is a celebration of our conquest, and you are celebrating it.

>Steals your land

Tell them to knock that shit off and just enjoy the food and the company of friends and family.

By having sex with her of course.
